In engineering, form follows function. It is therefore difficult to understand an engineered object if one does not examine it in light of its function. Just as understanding the structure of a lock…

Formidability and the logic of human anger

The fact that stronger men favored greater use of military force in international conflicts provides evidence that the internal logic of the anger program reflects the ancestral payoffs characteristic of a small-scale social world rather than rational assessments of modern payoffs in large populations.

The recalibrational theory and violent anger

On the formation and regulation of anger and aggression. A cognitive-neoassociationistic analysis.

A cognitive-neoassociationistic model is proposed to account for the effects of negative affect on the development of angry feelings and the display of emotional aggression and it is argued that the model can integrate the core aspect of the James-Lange theory with the newer cognitive theories of emotion.

Studies on anger and aggression. Implications for theories of emotion.
