    Schedule-induced aggression, a behavior seen in various species, involves attacking targets when intermittent rewards are provided. This review examines research on this aggression, including its biting or striking patterns, and proposes future study directions.

    Area of Science:

    • Behavioral Neuroscience
    • Comparative Psychology
    • Animal Behavior

    Background:

    • Aggressive behavior is observed across mammalian and non-mammalian species.
    • This aggression can be directed towards both animate and inanimate targets.
    • A common trigger for this behavior is intermittent access to positive reinforcement.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To critically review existing research on extinction- or schedule-induced aggression.
    • To examine the theoretical underpinnings of this aggressive behavior.
    • To identify and suggest avenues for future research in this area.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of scientific studies on schedule-induced aggression.
    • Analysis of research findings concerning the triggers and characteristics of aggression.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Synthesis of theoretical perspectives on the phenomenon.

    • Main Results:

    • Schedule-induced aggression is characterized by biting or striking topographies.
    • This behavior inflicts damage on targets, indicating its functional significance.
    • The review consolidates current understanding and highlights gaps in knowledge.

    Conclusions:

    • Extinction- or schedule-induced aggression is a well-documented behavioral response.
    • Further research is needed to fully elucidate the mechanisms and implications.
    • Future studies should explore novel methodologies and theoretical frameworks.
