The findings have the potential to advance the clinical treatment of PMDD.

If the findings are confirmed by other studies, Beta-blockers could be considered as a way to manage aggression and hostility in individuals with psychiatric conditions.

The comprehensive study reveals that nearly seven percent of shootings can be attributed to above-average daily temperatures, even after adjusting for seasonal patterns. The findings indicate that the Northeast and Midwest regions experience the sharpest increases in gun violence on hotter-than-normal days.

In a set of experiments, researchers found that conventional thinkers, those who rank low on openness to new ideas and experiences, came up with more creative ideas than peers after they practiced 'emotional reappraisal.' This means viewing a situation through another emotional lens, such as trying to see an anger-inducing event as one that is neutral or hopeful. The study indicates that creativity can be trained.

Meanwhile, men's aspirations were not impacted by sleep quality. The researchers discovered this finding in a two-week-long survey study of 135 full-time workers in the U.S. Each day the participants first noted how well they had slept and the quality of their current mood, and then later in the day how they felt about striving for more status and responsibility at work. Both men and women reported good and bad sleep quality over the course of the study, notably with no gender difference in reported sleep quality. However, women more often reported lowered intentions to pursue more status at work on days following a night of poor sleep.

So, finding a way to identify and treat those who may be particularly vulnerable to impulsivity early in life is especially important. Researchers have developed a genetically based score which could help identify, with a high degree of accuracy (greater than that of any impulsivity scores currently in use), the young children who are most at risk of impulsive behavior.

When social instigation occurs, cells in the lateral habenula signal to the dorsal raphe nucleus, which then communicates with the ventral tegmental area, leading to heightened aggression. These findings may have applications for socially provoked anger or violence.

But why do people show such a ready tendency to harm people in opposing groups? A new study led by researchers at Virginia Commonwealth University used functional brain imaging technology to reveal a potential answer: It increases activity in the brain's reward network.
