Abstract

Trait aggression is often separated into two functional dimensions: reactive and proactive tendencies. Reactive aggression is the tendency to engage in emotionally driven aggressive responses to perceived provocation, whereas proactive aggression is the tendency to engage in premeditated aggressive behaviors in the service of goal attainment. To date, the majority of empirical investigations examining these interrelated constructs have done so using cross-sectional data that have important limitations (e.g., recall bias). In the current study, we used an experience-sampling approach to investigate similarities and differences in reactive and proactive aggression's relations with affective and interpersonal constructs in a sample of 477 US undergraduate students. Our results indicated that baseline reactive and proactive aggression scores were predictive of aggression-related behavior, cognition, and affect in real-world dyadic encounters. Additionally, although reactive aggression showed stronger relations with investigated maladaptive outcomes (e.g., negative affectivity, lack of interpersonal warmth), profile similarity analyses indicated that these trait aggression dimensions shared substantial overlap in their nomological nets.

日常生活中的被动攻击与主动攻击:一项探索性经验抽样方法研究。
特质攻击通常分为两个功能维度:被动倾向和主动倾向。反应性攻击是对感知到的挑衅做出情绪驱动的攻击反应的倾向,而主动性攻击是为了实现目标而进行有预谋的攻击行为的倾向。迄今为止,大多数检验这些相关构念的实证研究都是使用具有重要局限性的横截面数据(例如,回忆偏差)进行的。在本研究中,我们采用经验抽样的方法调查了477名美国大学生在被动攻击和主动攻击与情感构念和人际构念之间关系的异同。我们的研究结果表明,基线反应性和主动性攻击得分可以预测现实世界中二元遭遇中与攻击相关的行为、认知和影响。此外,尽管反应性攻击与被调查的适应不良结果(如消极情感、缺乏人际温暖)有更强的关系,但特征相似性分析表明,这些特质攻击维度在其形态学网络中有大量重叠。

期刊介绍: Aggressive Behavior will consider manuscripts in the English language concerning the fields of Animal Behavior, Anthropology, Ethology, Psychiatry, Psychobiology, Psychology, and Sociology which relate to either overt or implied conflict behaviors. Papers concerning mechanisms underlying or influencing behaviors generally regarded as aggressive and the physiological and/or behavioral consequences of being subject to such behaviors will fall within the scope of the journal. Review articles will be considered as well as empirical and theoretical articles. Aggressive Behavior is the official journal of the International Society for Research on Aggression.
