Displaced Aggression

"this is my background of the study in my research paper about displaced aggression"

If a person is in a bad mood and he will displace his mood to others that are innocent on what happened, misunderstanding will occur because of the attitude that was shown. This behavior is called, Displaced Aggression.

Displaced Aggression may occurs when a person is provoked, and later on they will aggresses their temper against the innocent target, this is what Thomas F. Denson confirmed in his research article entitled, “Displaced Aggression in Children and Adolescents.” People sometimes can’t control their feelings especially if that feeling is anger because of the unexpected outcome that brings them in irritation. They can’t control their selves because they are manipulated by that anger, and sometimes the worst part is, if there will be revenging ways.

This kind of behavior is just one of the much known types of aggression. Aggression, from the site Wiki Education-The Psychology Wiki, is something that covers a wide variety that practices the launching attacks and destructive actions. In this case, displaced aggression is a harmful behavior, but is it really a harmful behavior, or just an unhealthy behavior.

Displaced Aggression may create conflict and misunderstanding in many aspects of living; it’s a cycle that’s so difficult to control because this behavior has an emotion but can be motivated by what we called, “feeling.”

Determining the weakness is a good way to be improved and be developed in this world, that’s why people also need to know their negative side. One way to determine is letting people answer some specific questionnaire about a certain topic, like what this research paper used. This paper used Displaced Aggression Questionnaire (DAQ), questionnaire that truly measures the displaced aggression behavior of a certain person. This questionnaire has a subscale that will let the researchers arrived on a right assessment, those subscales are the following: revenge planning, angry rumination, and how to engage in displaced aggression.

This research paper contains information about one of the much known type of aggression, the displaced aggression. This type of aggression may create conflict between two groups or two persons that are both innocent on each others’ mood; the one is angry, aiming for revenge, and the one is innocent, relaxed in interacting with everyone he is seeing.
