Talk:Social defeat

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello Editors and Contributors of WIKIPEDIA,

I started this new page, about "Social Defeat", which can be considered a new approach to phenomena of within-species aggression, in both humans and animals, like hierarchy formation in animals, bullying and relational aggression in humans, with many consequences for understanding behaviour, brain phenomena, and even some pathologies.

This new approach to aggression overlaps with many others, from social psychology for example, but it is perhaps even more adequate to scientific investigation, because it can be tested and verified, in experiments with animals and observations with humans. So I expect you to be patient with this new "stub".

Please help me improve it, it is a worthy new way of analysing aggression.

Thank you all,

Alberto

[edit] Congratulations and Notes

Congratulations on the rare well-researched, well-presented and non-agenda-driven entry on this extremely fascinating topic. Researchers interested in this subject will probably also be interested in Social Darwinism (Ragnar Redbeard, Demonic Males, etc.), the relationship between earthly aristocracy and a claimed monopoly on force (as highlighted by Richard W. Kaeuper in Chivalry and Violence in Medieval Europe), and psychopathy as viewed through evolutionary psychology--according to Iran Pitchford of The Human Nature Review, "it makes sense--in terms of evolutionary drives--for socially disadvantaged males to employ deception, manipulation and even violence to obtain resources and access to reproductive opportunities" (William Hart, Evil: A Primer, p. 85). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 172.132.100.120 (talk)
