Because the consequences of aggression will bring serious harm to individuals and society,in order to reduce the attack behavior,it is necessary to study the influencing factors of aggression.Among them,the self-control of the attack impulse in the hostile situation or anger is the key to determine whether the attack behavior occurs.According to the strength model of self-controll,the self-control of the behavior impulse depends on a limited resource.The self-control behavior is temporarily lost.When the individual is in a state of resource loss,the individual cannot effectively control the impulse behavior.In addition,the effective use of such resources by individuals to overcome self-impulsiveness also depends on a certain cognitive process time.This study uses laboratory tasks to explore the effects of self-control resources,loss and recovery on impulse attacks from the perspective of resource loss.Study1 used2(rejection manipulation: rejection?acceptance)×2(reaction time: immediate?delay)design of the participants,and explored the different reactions in the context of social exclusion and acceptance,how the immediate response and interval re-reaction impact the interpersonal retaliation.The network throwing paradigm using social exclusion research induced the hostile idea of the test,using the negative candidate scoring paradigm that measures the aggressive behavior as an indicator of retaliation against others.The results showed that the main effect of rejection was significant,that is,the rejection group showed more retaliation behavior than the admission group,and the main effect of the reaction time was significant.The re-reaction after a delaywas indeed lower than the retaliation of the immediate response.The interaction between rejection and reaction time did not reach a significant level,that is,under the acceptance condition,the difference between the delayed response and the immediate response was not significant,while under the exclusion condition,the difference between the delayed response and the immediate response was significant.Study 2 uses 2(loss: presence?absence)×2(positive emotion: yes? no)to design the test room.From the perspective of self-control resources,it can be explored whether the self-control resources can be supplemented by the induction of individual positive emotions in the state of loss.Therefore,the attack impulse is effectively self-managed and the attack behavior is reduced.In this study,the dismissal task and the color-word stroop task were used as the experimental task manipulation of the loss,combined with the psychological characteristics of the subject,the short video of the inspirational speech was used as the inducing material of the positive emotion,and the task of the competitive reaction was used as the measurement index of the aggressive behavior.It is found that the main effect of loss is significant,that is,under the loss condition,the subject shows higher aggression than the lossless condition,and the interaction effect of loss and positive emotion is significant,that is,whether the positive emotion is induced under the lossless price adjustment.There was no significant difference in the impact on aggression behavior,and under depletion conditions,the positive emotion induction group was significantly less aggressive than the non-positive emotion group.The above two studies are from the perspective of self-control resources,explore the use of self-control resources,the loss of self-control resources,and the impact of self-control resources through the induction of positive emotional state on the subsequent aggression.Study 1 shows that when an individual is initiated by the hostile situation of the external situation,the response is delayed after a period of time,which can effectively reduce the individual's aggressive behavior,and the lowering of the aggressive behavior is because the individual has effectively carried out the self control.On the basis of Study 1,Study2 shows that after self-control,individuals will have a state of resource loss.In the state of loss,individuals show higher aggression,while positive emotions can overcome the effects of self-loss and restore self-control resources.Adjust the individual's aggressive impulses and effectively reduce the aggressive behavior.
