Explain why and how Leonard Berkowitz revised the frustration-aggression theory.
(40) 
Answered by Examlex AI CopilotLeonard Berkowitz revised the frustration-aggression theory by introducing the concept of "cognitive neoassociation." He argued that frustration does not always lead to aggression, but rather it can increase the likelihood of aggression by priming aggressive thoughts and emotions. This revised theory takes into account the role of cognitive processes in mediating the relationship between frustration and aggression.
Berkowitz also emphasized the importance of environmental cues and situational factors in influencing aggressive behavior. He proposed that the presence of aggressive cues in the environment can trigger aggressive responses, even in the absence of frustration. This expanded the scope of the theory to include a wider range of triggers for aggression beyond just frustration.
Overall, Berkowitz's revisions to the frustration-aggression theory provided a more nuanced understanding of the factors that contribute to aggressive behavior, taking into account cognitive processes and environmental influences. This updated theory has been influential in shaping our understanding of aggression and has been supported by empirical research in the field.
