Individual Differences in the Extent and Development of Aggressive Cognitive-Associative Networks.

Bushman, Brad J.

Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, v22 n8 p811-19 Aug 1996

Extends L. Berkowitz's neoassociationist aggression model by considering the role of personality variables. Experiment one tested the hypothesis that high-trait-aggressive individuals have more developed aggressive cognitive-associative networks than low-trait-aggressive individuals. In experiment two, participants rated the stimulus words used in experiment one. Discusses findings. (KW)
