The subjective feeling of not having enough space is stressful Crammed in the back of the bus, trapped in a slow moving freeway traffic, or living three to a small room in a college dorm diminishes ones sense of control (Baron & others, 1976; McNeel, 1980)
It is a physiological and psychological state of being awake or reactive to stimuli. Schacter & Singers study- arousing events.
Arousal + Attribution=Emotion
The more TV violence individuals watch as children, the more violence they exhibit later as teens and young adults. Watching a violent film has the effect of increasing the number of aggressive acts committed during a game. Playing violent video games seems to have the same kind of impact on children that watching TV violence does.
Adolescents and adults who watch more than 4 hours per day are more likely to have an exaggerated view of the degree of violence taking place outside their own home.
Diffusion of responsibility
Catharsis
A social Learning Approach
According to the social learning theory of aggression, people learn aggressive behaviors from watching other people model them.
It is possible to control our anger by actively enabling it to dissipate. Actively enabling means using such simple devices as counting to ten before shooting your mouth off.
