Retaliatory+Aggression

toc

Definition:
Aggression to get back at someone who has hurt you. HGD, Chapter 10, p.259

retaliatory aggression is a type of hostile aggression towards others in order to seek a type of revenge from that persons harm doing towards you.

Examples:
an example could be when one boy hits another, the retaliatory aggression of the child who was just hit will cause that child to retaliate and to hit the other child back. Retaliatory aggression at its finest. an example of girls in retaliatory aggression is when one girl starts a rumor, the girl that the rumor is about starts a rumor of her own to get back at the girl who started the rumor about her. and then there is the loud arguments with name calling and all that sort of stuff. of course your not going to let someone yell at you and call you names without yelling back and throwing a few words in your self. this is another example of retaliatory aggression.

Analogies:
an analogy could be looked at as repaying the favor back to a person. usually when someone does something nice or kind, you repay the favor with something nice and kind back. but in this case if someone did something mean or rude to you, you would return the favor in a rude or mean manner. this type of behavior is acceptable in all of the examples listed above.
