As temperatures increase during the summer, frustration also increases at similar levels. Baron et al. (1972) suggested that people are more likely to show anger in a hot or uncomfortable situation than in a cool or comfortable situation. Baron (1972) conducted a study using forty undergraduate men from University of South Carolina. The subjects were divided into two separate groups. Group one was introduced to a hot or uncomfortable environment, and group two was introduced to a cool, calm, and comfortable environment. The subjects were given specific character traits information about complete strangers that are similar or different in nature than the person accessing and asking to evaluate. Finally, the research failed to provide support for the hypothesis due to the data manipulation and lack of …show more content…
In addition, Anderson et al. (1989) used the physiological-thermoregulatory model to evaluate different studies to find the relationship between temperature and behavior. When a person is hot or uncomfortable, they become aggressive. Anderson tested the hypothesis, but did not have enough results to support it. This topic has been a well-known interest that researchers have studied and tried to prove a relationship between the two variables. However, there are studies that have proven high crime rates during the
According to the given symptoms (slow, shallow breathing; a slow and weak pulse; shivering and had a short attention span), you are now in the condition of hypothermia. Hypothermia is a medical emergency when your body loses heat faster than it can produce heat and it is usually caused by prolonged exposure to cold temperature. Since you had spent almost 30 hours at sea, this caused your body temperature to drop quickly and that’s the reason why you’re suffering from the listed symptoms.
What causes people to commit crime? This million dollar questions has place many criminologists and researchers searching for answers. In the past decades, people have tried to explain crime by referring to the earliest literature of criminal’s atavistic features to human biology. Recent studies have shows that crime is described in the social environment. While, no one theory can prove the causes of crime, strain theory has gain support in academic research for its five mode of adaptation.
Serial killers is a person that kill three or more people in a short amount of time. He or she murder one after another in a similar way with an inactive period between each murder. The motivation for murdering an adult or child is based on psychological gratification. The serial killer is normally an adult white male in his late twenties, who has killed four or more individuals in separate incident with an inactive period between. It is impossible to tell just by looking at a person who will become a serial killer, the traits of some criminals or serial killers appear to be similar most of the time. The types of behaviors
In psychology terms, this is called the frustration- aggression principle. The frustration- aggression principle explains that as someone experiences frustration, they create anger within themselves which then can result in aggressive actions if there is a lack of self control (Myers 2011, p. 673). In Happy’s case, he came frustrated by various things including his relationship, failure in hockey, and his inability to initially save his grandmother’s house. This frustration turned into anger which then spiraled into aggressive events after he realized that he was incapable of immediately fixing his problems. However, the frustration- aggression principle does not promise aggressive actions after every frustration. Depending on the individual and even the temperature, individuals respond to their frustrations in different ways. During hotter temperatures, people react on their aggression more frequently than during colder temperatures (Myers 2011, p. 673). This directly relates to Happy, because although Happy is a naturally aggressive person, Happy is out golfing in the summer heat for most of the entire movie. Being out in the hot temperatures may not have caused the aggressive actions, but the temperature may have assisted in Happy’s decision to act out on his anger every time he became frustrated. Also, Happy may have developed his aggressive tendencies because of a lack of parenting.
This paper will examine Robert C. Solomon's Emotions and Choices article, to best identify what anger is, and to what extent a rational human being is responsible for their anger. Firstly, Solomon's argument must be described. A quick summation of Solomon's argument can be found in the following four points: Emotions are judgements, emotions are chosen, emotions serve a purpose, and emotions are rational.1 To quote Solomon, he explains that “Emotions are not occurrences, and do not happen to us. They ... may be chosen like an action.”2
Quality outrage is characterized as the demeanor to see an extensive variety of circumstances as irritating or baffling, and the inclination to react to such circumstances with more regular heights in state outrage. Spielberger, Jacobs, Russel, & Crane (1983) depict characteristic resentment is an individual emotional demeanor to encounter endless sentiments of indignation regarding time and crosswise over circumstance. People with high characteristic outrage are inclined to experience outrage all the more strongly crosswise over circumstances. Spector (2003) and Spielberger (1999) found that that circumstance is a direct result of an indignation demeanor and more consequence of negative examinations crosswise over circumstance. Attribute Anger
According to Raine, there are documented biological factors associated with violent behavior, however, “biology is not destiny, and it’s more than biology” (Gross, 2013). One area of increasing scientific research is focused on the role of environmental factors. An interesting connection between behavior and environmental toxins is the possible link between lead exposure in children and later violent crime. Raine hypothesizes that environmental lead exposure of young children in the 50s, 60s and 70s corresponds to a later rise in violence in the 70s, 80s and 90s; a similar correlative decrease in both environmental lead and later violence suggests a causal relationship (Gross,
There are several ways that fear of crime has a relationship with violence. In many communities have experience higher fear of crime levels? Franklin (2009) in his current research he tested the vulnerability of female and male to indicated if fear of crime was increase by age. In his finding this facts are significant since there is a higher level among age for males while females tend to reduce fear. Age also plays a big role when fear of crime is concern in the communities.
Yet some stations and older trains do not contain any temperature control. As the Guardian reports, temperature has a direct correlation with anger [1]. Since anger is infectious, with temperature control we can reduce irrational behavior and accidents related to emotion. Temperature increases can lead to irrational behavior due to resentment and anger already present. With anger, one loses emotional intelligence and gives way to irrational actions. A ventilation system which works to reduce temperatures in the summer automatically provides much needed comfort and safety.
Through out the years Criminologists has conducted a great amount of research and through that research Criminologist has developed different theories in order to better understand and explain criminal behavior. Theories try to help make sense out of many observations that are conducted presenting the facts of the principal that connects and explains the theories. If good theory has been developed; then it becomes very valuable to Criminologist, because it shows the knowledge that is beyond the facts that has been presented; which will show Criminologist how to predict how others might behave (Andrews, D and
Aggression is a natural part of human behavior, and can even be adaptive in certain situations. However, when aggression manifests itself in violent behaviors, it becomes problematic. Patterns of aggression change throughout childhood, adolescence, and early adulthood, and these changes usually differ between males and females (Loeber, 1997). Physical aggression is typically greatest early in life and decreases during adolescence, whereas more serious violence tends to increase with age, particularly during adolescence (Loeber, 1997). Despite the changes that occur in aggressive tendencies throughout childhood and adolescence, aggression is seen as a very stable trait, almost as stable as
Anger in a business setting can cause one to act inappropriately or unwisely by blowing an incident out of proportion and possibly irrevocably damaging a career. Learning that at any moment we have the ability to consciously control our anger is empowering but not that easy to accomplish. Goleman asserts the body’s chemical reaction to stressful situations, relating back to our ancient ancestors, is the reason for this difficulty. The introduction of hormones into the body is not a gradual elevation, but a quick release relating back to our basic fight or flight response to environmental dangers. Every day, hormones are incrementally released into the body with each passing taxing stressful episode until a level is reached that triggers anger. He offers two weapons against anger outbursts. The first is method is to recognize, as early as possible, what is triggering the anger. This disruption of the anger
1. The theories and perspectives in this unit focus on the environmental and social influence of crime. Do you think that environmental and social conditions influence crime? Why or why not? Between biological, psychological, and social factors, which one do you think plays the biggest role in crime? Why?

Phase change materials are widely used source of thermoregulation (TM) systems and in latent thermal energy storage (LTES). PCMs capability to absorb and release large latent heat during phase change transition processes provides a wide range of phase change temperatures for thermal management systems. The incorporation of PCMs can achieve the same or even better performances with a smaller volume. PCMs can meet the thermoregulation requirements of various applications. Currently, the low thermal conductivity of PCMs (usually less than 1 W mK−1) greatly limits their heat dissipation performance in thermal management applications. Currently main focus of research is to increase the thermal conductivity of the PCMs. In this regard different kinds of materials such as metal and carbon composites with PCMs are produced. The intensive experimental and theoretical investigation are made to improve the performance of PCMs. This paper discusses in detail the fabrication and thermal conductance measurement techniques, and mathematical modeling of PCMs composites. Moreover applications of PCMs in TM and LTES system are also mentioned with examples.
