TY - JOUR PY - 2017// TI - The role of climate in human aggression and violence: towards a broader conception JO - Behavioral and brain sciences A1 - van der Linden, Sander L. SP - e99 EP - e99 VL - 40 IS - N2 - The psychological processes that predict aggressive behaviour are also typically associated with violent self-harm (e.g., poor self-control). Yet, although human violence (towards others) appears to increase with proximity to the equator, suicide rates tend to decrease. In the light of this empirical puzzle, I argue that Van Lange et al.'s CLASH model would benefit from a broader conceptualization of human aggression.
