ØHOSTILITY Hostility is an attitude of scorn (disrespect) + rejection + dislike or hatred of one or more people and a conscious intention to hurt them. q Hostility is being ready for a fight all the time. Hostile people are often stubborn, impatient, hotheaded, or have an "attitude. “ q Hostility is an emotional reaction between people, it is rarely affected by logic or "clear thinking. " q
Surface Causes of Hostility � She/he feels threatened, humiliated, scorned, ignored, attacked, manipulated, and/or injured by you or someone else; � She/he resents you or another for an imagined or real behavior or attitude (like superiority, distrust, rejection, dislike, or disrespect); � She/he covets something like your possessions, relationship, traits, social status, looks, job, family, and may feel "entitled" to them but unable to attain them;
� She/he feels you have threatened or hurt someone she/he cares for, and she/he seeks "revenge; " � She/he strongly disagrees with key values you hold (like religion, evolution , abortion, or bigotry), and resents your disparaging him/her or supporters about this; � She/he feels personally and/or socially rejected (excluded) by you or someone else. � She/he feels you don't listen to her or him on important matters, and/or you are "unapproachable. "
Primary Causes of Hostility 1) Typical hostile persons have inherited significant psychological wounds from early-childhood neglect, abandonment, and abuse. They don't (want to) know this - or if they do, they don't know what to do about it.
� Psychological wounding typically promotes impulsivity, anger, sarcasm, ignoring long-tem consequences, disrespect, arguing, selfishness, focus on the past, envy, entitlement, righteousness, rigidity, superiority, reality distortions (like denials), bigotry, dishonesty, blame, self-justification, and an inability to see one's self as half the problem.
2. Typical hostile people are unaware of effective communication skills (symptom: repeated dynamics like these vs. winwin problem-solving). They are often unaware of how they try to fill their social needs, and how their way often makes things worse.
3. These two factors combine to promote mutual dislike, disrespect, and distrust, which powerfully inhibit effective problem-solving, forgiveness, and genuine co-operation.
Manage Your Own Hostility � Breathe � Firmly tell whatever yourself is giving you the aggressive thoughts and feelings to STOP! � if you feel threatened, identify what they fear and review your options to reduce threat;
� If you feel angry, explore whether you hurt by the other person/s behaviors. Often, hurt follows scorn, disrespect, and/or rejection;
Respond Well to Other’s Hostility � Breathe well, and mentally review your rights to prepare for any needed assertions; � Check to see that you have a genuine mutualrespect attitude. If you feel superior or inferior, a false self controls you. You face and body language will probably convey your attitude; � Identify what you need now (e. g. select from the following options, leave, and/or call for help);
� Calmly ask the other person what, specifically, do they need from you now; � Listen empathically to the other person without debating, arguing, or agreeing with them. This is essential, for otherwise the person's raised emotional level will prevent them from hearing you; � Apologize, if you've hurt, misjudged, or offended them; � Call for help and/or leave if the other person is out of control and violent.
ØAGGRESSION � Derived from the word aggress means "unprovoked attack”(1610). � Behavior that results in personal injury or destruction of property (Bandura, 1973) � Behaviour between members of the same species intended to cause pain or harm((Scherer et al, 1975) � The intentional infliction of some form of harm on others (Baron & Byrne, 2000)
AGGRESSION VS VIOLENCE extreme, unjustifiable aggression, usually violating social sanctions and causing destruction. q It is used almost exclusively to describe human behaviour. q Violence is physically or psychologically harmful human aggression that involves the threat or use of force. q All violence is aggression, but many instances of aggression are not violent. q
TYPES OF AGGRESSION Instrumental aggression q is rational and calculated q Aggression is used by the individual in order to maximize personal gains
TYPES OF AGGRESSION Emotional aggression q is reactive and impulsive q Aggression is driven by feelings (e. g. , anger), often in the absence of a rational cost-benefit analysis
TYPES OF AGGRESSION PROACTIVE AGGRESSION q (instrumental , planned, premeditated, coldblooded, or predatory aggression) Actor initiates the aggression against a target without immediate provocation. q It is atypical in psychiatric emergencies.
TYPES OF AGGRESSION REACTIVE AGGRESSION q (Hostile, affective, defensive, hotblooded, or impulsive aggression ) in the sense that the actor is responding to a threat. q This is characteristic of violence seen in psychiatric emergencies
Biological explanations of aggression Freud � Lorenz Freud (1930) argued that human aggressions stems from a ‘Death Instinct’: �This destructive energy builds up inside us and eventually spills out in the form of violence against others or against the self � Lorenz (1966) adapted Darwin’s theory of evolution and the principle of survival of the fittest: �He argued that the ‘Fighting Instinct’ is inherent and necessary for survival
Causes of Human Aggression Situational Determinants of Aggression � Alcohol �Intoxication facilitates aggression by impairing cognitive processing, narrows attention �Result is more extreme, less moderated behavior �Aggressive response: often powerful and simple �Inhibiting response: often weaker and more complex
So what causes aggression? q Theories have been proposed at all levels of analysis: o biology o individual personality o specific situations o broader cultural norms and values
So what causes aggression? Aggression is likely to be the outcome of a complex process that involves multiple factors q Biological process related to arousal and the experience of emotion. q Individual differences in the interpretation of incoming information. q Situational cues that exacerbate hostility or trigger an aggressive response. q Norms and values about what is and is not appropriate. q
Symptom Domains 1. Impulsive (rapid, thoughtless, aggressive acts) 2. Affective instability (affectively charged attacks with seemingly little provocation) 3. Anxiety/hyper-arousal (overwhelming anxiety and frustration leading to aggressive outbursts)
Substance Abuse or Medication Effects and Aggression q Alcohol q Cocaine q Methamphetamine q Anabolic Steroids q Phencyclidine
