The Relationship Between Instigative Aggression in Females and Sex of the Target of InstigationUniversity of North Carolina at Greensboro Forty females suggested which shock intensity a partner should set for an opponent in a reaction time competition. Results re vealed subjects with noncooperative partners (i.e., those who refused to use high shocks) suggested less intense shock than subjects with cooperative partners and that aggressive suggestions increased as a function of increasing attack from the opponent when partners were cooperative, but not when uncooperative. However, sex of the partner did not influence instigative aggression.
