Current Opinion in Psychology Volume 19 Pages 60-64

The brain chemistry behind aggression is not as easy to understand in humans as it is in animals even though it is a similar mechanism. This resource covers neural circuits that work like electrical units and processes that involve the brain and body at the same time when someone shows signs of aggression. There are many factors that lead to the behavior of aggression, sometimes it is a cause of a “social behavior network” and has nothing to do with the brain chemistry at all!
