Physical aggression is associated with heightened social reflection impulsivity. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • - The text explores the harmful effects of physical aggression on individuals and communities, noting its connection to problems in interpreting ambiguous social situations and the cognitive mechanism of reflection impulsivity.
  • - A study involving 98 incarcerated men investigated how reflection impulsivity affects decision-making in social contexts, particularly how it relates to hostile versus benign social judgments.
  • - Findings revealed that more physically aggressive individuals tend to gather less information and make impulsive hostile judgments, leading to a higher likelihood of violent behavior and a history of assault charges.

Article Abstract

Physical aggression harms individuals, disrupts social functioning across multiple forms of psychopathology, and leads to destruction within communities. Physical aggression is associated with aberrations in the interpretation of ambiguous information. However, the specific cognitive mechanisms supporting this link remain elusive. One potentially relevant cognitive mechanism is reflection impulsivity, the amount of information gathered during decision-making. Reflection impulsivity characterizes how individuals resolve ambiguity in the process of forming judgments when multiple interpretations of a stimulus are possible. In a sample of 98 incarcerated men, we examined reflection impulsivity using a novel social information sampling task. The primary aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between physical aggression and social reflection impulsivity. Additionally, we assessed the frequency of different social judgments (hostile vs. benign), the extent to which reflection impulsivity varied in the context of these different social judgments, and subjective certainty about social judgments. Finally, we investigated whether social reflection impulsivity moderated the relationship between physical aggressiveness and violent crime. Results indicated that more physically aggressive individuals displayed heightened social reflection impulsivity, which was amplified in the context of hostile judgments. Moreover, more physically aggressive individuals were more certain about their hostile judgments and more certain when judgments were made with unconstrained access to behavioral information. Finally, impulsive hostile judgments in physically aggressive individuals related to a more extensive history of assault charges. These findings suggest that physically aggressive individuals exhibit deficits in information gathering, leading to ill-informed and inflexible social judgments.
