   Aggression
   Anger or aggression is a key emotion necessary to our personal survival in our environment. In psychology it is understood from a biological point of view. The hormonal hypothesis regards aggression suggests that the male sex hormone androgen (testosterone) plays its part. As do other hormones such as adrenaline and progesterone (Kreuz and Rose, 1972). Our environment also plays its part. There are links between alcohol consumption and aggression, the weather and aggression, and environmental stressors and aggression (Keegan, 2002).

    Aggression
    In psychology and other social and behavioral sciences, `aggression` refers to behavior that is intended to cause harm or pain. Aggression can be either physical or verbal. Behavior that accidentally causes harm or pain is not aggression. Property damage and other destructive behavior may also fall under the definition of aggression. Aggression is not the same thing as assertiveness.
