Anger and assaultiveness of male forensic patients with developmental disabilities : links to volatile parents
No full textThis study with 107 male forensic patients with developmental disabilities investigated whether exposure to parental anger and aggression was related to anger and assaultiveness in a hospital, controlling for background variables. Patient anger and aggression were assessed by self-report, staff-ratings, and archival records. Exposure to parental anger/aggression, assessed by a clinical interview, was significantly related to patient self-reported anger, staff-rated anger and aggression, and physical assaults in hospital, controlling for age, intelligence quotient, length of hospital stay, violent offense history, and childhood physical abuse. Results are consonant with previous findings concerning detrimental effects of witnessing parental violence and with the theory on acquisition of cognitive scripts for aggression. Implications for clinical assessment and cognitive restructuring in anger treatment are discussed
Social justifications for moral emotions: When reasons for disgust are less elaborated than for anger
No full textIn the present research we test the unreasoning disgust hypothesis: moral disgust, in
particular in response to a violation of a bodily norm, is less likely than moral anger to be justified with cognitively elaborated reasons. In experiment 1, participants were asked to explain why they felt anger and disgust toward pedophiles. Participants were more likely to invoke elaborated reasons, versus merely evaluative responses, when explaining their anger, versus disgust. Experiment 2 used a between-participants design; participants explained why they felt either anger or disgust toward seven groups that either violated a sexual or non-sexual norm. Again, elaborated reasons were less prevalent when explaining their disgust versus anger, and in particular when explaining disgust toward a group that violated a sexual norm. Experiment 3 further established that these findings are due to a lower accessibility of elaborated reasons for bodily disgust, rather than inhibition in using them when provided. From these findings it can be concluded that communicating external reasons for moral disgust at bodily violations is made more difficult due to the unavailability of those reasons to people
Self-Pity: Exploring the Links to Personality, Control Beliefs, and Anger
No full textSelf-pity is a frequent response to stressful events. So far, however, empirical research has paid only scant attention to this subject. The present article aims at exploring personality characteristics associated with individual differences in feeling sorry for oneself. Two studies with N = 141 and N = 161 university students were conducted, employing multidimensional measures of personality, control beliefs, anger, loneliness, and adult attachment. With respect to personality, results showed strong associations of self-pity with neuroticism, particularly with the depression facet. With respect to control beliefs, individuals high in self-pity showed generalized externality beliefs, seeing themselves as controlled by both chance and powerful others. With respect to anger expression, self-pity was primarily related to anger-in. Strong connections with anger rumination were also found. Furthermore, individuals high in self-pity reported emotional loneliness and ambivalent-worrisome attachments. Finally, in both studies, a strong correlation with gender was found, with women reporting more self-pity reactions to stress than men. Findings are discussed with respect to how they support, extend, and qualify the previous literature on self-pity, and directions for future empirical research are pointed out

Larval and early juvenile development of Paralomis granulosa reared at different temperatures: tolerance of cold and food limitation in a lithodid crab from high latitudes
No full textParalomis granulosa Jacquinot is a commercially fished lithodid crab species living in subantarctic and cold-temperate regions of southern South America. Its larval stages (Zoea I, II, Megalopa) are fully lecithotrophic, developing in the complete absence of food from hatching through metamorphosis; first feeding occurs in the first juvenile crab stage. In laboratory rearing experiments conducted at constant 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15°C, we studied rates of larval and early juvenile survival and development in relation to temperature. At 1°C, many larvae (52%) reached the Megalopa stage almost 2 mo after hatching, but all died subsequently without passing through metamorphosis. Larval development was successfully completed at all other temperatures, with maximum survival at 6 to 9°C. The time of non-feeding larval development from hatching to metamorphosis lasted, on average, from 24 d (at 15°C) to almost 4 mo (117 d, at 3°C). When the experiment was terminated 1 yr after hatching, the 3rd (3°C) to 8th (15°C) juvenile crab instar had been reached. The relationship between the time of development through individual larval or juvenile stages (y) and temperature (T) was described as a power function (y = a x Tb, or log[y] = log[a] + b • log[T]; the same regression model was also used to describe the temperature-dependence of cumulative periods of development from hatching. The wide thermal tolerance window for successful larval development (at least 3 to 15°C) and the broad geographic range of this species show that the early life-cycle stages of P. granulosa are cold-eurythermal. This physiological trait together with larval independence of food indicate that this lithodid crab species is well adapted to severe conditions of cold in combination with the food-limitation in subantarctic regions. Since similar traits have been also observed in other Lithodidae, we suggest that early life-history adaptations to low temperatures and low planktonic productivity may explain the high number of lithodid species occurring at high latitudes and in the deep sea, i.e. in conditions under which other Decapoda show strongly reduced diversity
Cyclists’ anger experiences in traffic: The Cycling Anger Scale
No full textResearch on emotions in road traffic has focused on car drivers rather than on cyclists. However, cyclists experience cycling anger and its consequences as vulnerable road users, i.e., without having a car-like protection zone around them. To address the issue of cycling anger, we suggest a psychological measure assessing cyclists’ anger experiences in traffic, the Cycling Anger Scale (CAS). This questionnaire assesses cyclists’ anger experiences in interaction with their cycling environment. A principal component analysis and a following confirmatory factor analyses with two different samples proposed a 14 items questionnaire solution with four subscales: police interaction, car interaction, cyclist interaction, and pedestrian interaction. Alpha reliabilities were acceptable to good. The CAS correlated significantly with the Driving Anger Scale (DAS) for car drivers and with the general State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory (STAXI) suggesting convergent validity. Additionally, we examined the relations between cycling anger, demographics, and self-reported cycling behavior. We conclude that the CAS provides a complementary efficient instrument for measuring cycling anger in road traffic

Between Languages and Selves: Migratory Agency, Fragmentation and Representation in Suheir Hammad's breaking poems
No full textFor a number of Palestinian-American authors such as Nathalie Handal, Lisa Suhair Majaj, and Naomi Shihab Nye, the configuration of poetry as homeland dwells between the unspeakable pain of forced exile and the organic capabilities of language. Their poetry is thus the site of infinite tensions informed not only by this duality but also by their ambiguous location as hyphenated subjects in the United States. Among such authors, Suheir Hammad stands out for her daring, experimental expression of these tensions, which are at the heart of her recent poetry collection, breaking poems (2008). This collection speaks to the process of fragmentation of language, identity, and belonging from within as it tests the demarcation line between word and sound, enunciation and silence. Framed by tensions between forms of breaking and acts of verbal reconstruction, my paper explores experimental poetic strategies of confrontation with the legacy of grief, occupation, and silencing in breaking poems. To this end, it probes the fluid movement of the poetic self between histories, ethnicities, and languages. Drawing on postcolonial theory, Juan Bruce-Novoa's study of interlingualism, and Michael Dowdy's notion of migratory agency, my paper follows the poetic persona in her wanderings in the labyrinth of the poem-body-word, to achieve a better understanding of hertransformative practices aiming at creating interstitial and interlingual spaces. Such spaces,I argue, represent hyphenated interventions into what Hammad calls the emperor's missionand language, where the exilic self juggles Arab and American cultural contexts to create cross-cultural poetic and linguistic structures projecting silenced aspects of Arab-American culture. © Author 2011.Akash Munir, 1999, POST GIBRAN ANTHOLOG, P139; al-Hout Bayan Nuwayhed, 2004, SABRA SHATILA SEPTEM; Anglesey Zoe, 1999, LISTEN; [Anonymous], 1989, DEF 1 OED; [Anonymous], 2010, OED; Boyce Dale, 1996, MOTHER COURAGE LEBON; Brogan Jacqueline V., 1997, SPEAKI0
