      abstract     = {Testosterone affects human social behavior in various ways.
                      While testosterone effects are generally associated with
                      muscular strength and aggressiveness, human studies also
                      point towards enhanced status–seeking motives after
                      testosterone administration. The current study tested the
                      causal influence of exogenous testosterone on male behavior
                      during a competitive provocation paradigm. In this double
                      blind, randomized, placebo (PL)-controlled study, 103 males
                      were assigned to a PL or testosterone group receiving a
                      colorless PL or testosterone gel. To induce provocation,
                      males played a rigged reaction time game against an
                      ostensible opponent. When participants lost, the opponent
                      subtracted money from the participant who in return could
                      subtract money from the ostensible opponent. Participants
                      subjectively indicated anger and self-estimated treatment
                      affiliation (testosterone or PL administration). A
                      trial-by-trial analysis demonstrated that provocation and
                      success during the repeated games had a stronger influence
                      on participants’ choice to reduce money from the opponent
                      if they had received testosterone. Participants who believed
                      to be in the testosterone group were angrier after the
                      experiment and increased monetary reductions during the task
                      course. In line with theories about mechanisms of
                      testosterone in humans, provocation is shown to be necessary
                      for the agency of exogenous testosterone. Thus, testosterone
                      reinforces the conditional adjustment of aggressive behavior
                      but not aggressive behavior per se. In contrast undirected
                      frustration is not increased by testosterone but probably
                      interferes with cognitive appraisals about biological
                      mechanisms of testosterone.},
