Aggression (P3)

• LEARN THIS PEEL


  Research support has mainly come from lab experiments, and therefore there are issues of ecological validity that can be questioned. Ecological validity is the extent to which any research can be applied outside of the research setting, in this case a lab. Whether the p's in the lab experiments would carry out actual aggression when faced with an external stimulus that incited aggression is not certain. Therefore further research is needed to confirm that these theories can explain aggression in real life.
