FrenchNounagression f. (plural agressions) Related termsAnagramsFrom Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. In psychology, as well as other social and behavioral sciences, aggression refers to behavior between members of the same species that is intended to cause pain or harm. Predatory or defensive behavior between members of different species is not normally considered "aggression." Aggression takes a variety of forms among humans and can be physical, mental, or verbal. Aggression should not be confused with assertiveness, although the terms are often used interchangeably among laypeople, e.g. an aggressive salesperson. There are two broad categories of aggression. These include hostile, affective, or retaliatory aggression and instrumental, predatory, or goal-oriented aggression. Empirical research indicates that there is a critical difference between the two, both psychologically and physiologically. Some research indicates that people with tendencies toward "affective" aggression, defined in this study as being "impulsive, unplanned, overt, or uncontrolled" have lower IQs than those with tendencies toward "predatory" aggression, defined here as being "goal-oriented, planned, hidden, or controlled". Across many different human cultures, men are more likely than women to express aggression by means of direct physical violence. Women are more likely to instead express aggression through a variety of indirect or nonphysical means. Evolution of aggressionMale elephant seals fightingLike most behaviors, aggression can be examined in terms of its ability to help an animal reproduce and survive. Animals may use aggression to gain and secure territories, as well as other resources including food, water, and mating opportunities. Researchers have theorized that aggression and the capacity for murder are products of our evolutionary past. From Wikipedia under the
GNU Free Documentation License Does neutering male chows decrease agression? Q. I have a male chow/lab mix, almost 2 years old. He's been showing mild agression more and more recently. If I get him neutered will he be less agressive? I heard sometimes it can make Chows more agressive. Please don't say its because lack of training, because he is the best behaved dog I've ever had. He rarley shows signs of agression. But when he does he shows his teeth but doesn't bite. But that's what I'm afraid of. Asked by Bronte' S - Wed Dec 23 19:14:30 2009 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments A. No, but training does. Answered by PoodlePuff - BYB Eater - Wed Dec 23 19:27:19 2009 My older dog is showing agression toward the new dog. What do i do?

What should i do? Asked by Kevin A - Sat Dec 29 23:38:49 2007 - - 10 Answers - 0 Comments A. The older dog is just showing dominance over the younger one. It has nothing to do with jealousy. Simply tell the older dog no when he does it. Show the older dog (and the younger one too) that YOU are in charge, not them.
