Third Party Instigation of Aggression as a Function of Noncooperation and Veto Power

Mander, Anthony M.; Gaebelein, Jacquelyn W.

Journal of Research in Personality, 11, 4, 475-86, Dec 77

Tests the validity of three hypotheses previously offered to explain the attenuating effects of pacifistic noncooperation on instigative aggression. Results indicated that all hypotheses, norm-conformity, compliance, and maintenance of power, were viable for subgroups of subjects. Also discusses individual differences and the temporarily inhibiting effects of passive resistance. (Editor/RK)
