Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
The general aggression model (GAM) is a framework that accounts for the interaction of cognition, affect, and arousal during an aggressive episode. Cognition includes hostile thoughts and scripts (previous behavior patterns and responses to similar episodes). Mood, emotion, and expressive motor responses (automatic reactions to specific emotions) represent the affect component. Arousal can be physiologic, psychological, or both. Bandura's social learning theory focuses on the role of learning and rewards in the expression of aggression and violence.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Maladaptive anger (excessive, outwardly directed anger or suppressed anger) is linked to psychiatric conditions, such as depression (Perugi, Fornaro, & Akiskal, 2011), as well as a plethora of medical conditions. For example, excessive, outwardly directed anger is linked to coronary heart disease (Ketterer et al., 2011) and myocardial infarction (Mostofsky, Maclure, Tofler, Muller, & Mittleman, 2013). Suppressed anger is related to arthritis, breast and colorectal cancer, chronic pain, and hypertension (Burns, Quartana, & Bruehl, 2011; Thomas, 2009). Furthermore, suppressed anger was a predictor of early mortality for both men and women in a large 17-year study (Potpara & Lip, 2011).

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
