abstract = {The Taylor Aggression Paradigm (TAP) has been widely used
to measure reactive aggression following provocation during
competitive interactions. Besides being reactive, aggression
can be goal-directed (proactive aggression). Our study
presents a novel paradigm to investigate proactive
aggression during competitive interactions. Sixty-seven
healthy participants competed in two modified versions of
the TAP against an ostensible opponent while skin
conductance responses (SCRs) were recorded. During the
proactive TAP (pTAP), only the participant could interfere
with the ostensible opponent’s performance by blurring the
screen. In the reactive TAP (rTAP), the opponent repeatedly
provoked the participant by blurring the screen of the
participant, impeding their chance to win. In both versions,
the blurriness levels chosen by the participant served as a
measure of aggression (unprovoked in the pTAP and provoked
in the rTAP). In the pTAP, trial-by-trial mixed model
analyses revealed higher aggression with higher
self-reported selfishness. SCRs decreased with increasing
proactive aggression. An interaction effect between gender
and proactive aggression for the SCRs revealed increased
SCRs at higher aggression levels in females, but lower SCRs
at higher aggression levels in males. In the rTAP, SCRs were
not associated with reactive aggression but aggression
increased with increasing provocation and especially after
losing against the opponent when provoked. While males
showed higher aggression levels than females when
unprovoked, reactive aggression increased more strongly in
females with higher provocation. Mean levels of aggression
in both tasks showed a high positive correlation. Our
results highlight that, despite being intercorrelated and
both motivated by selfishness, proactive and reactive
aggression are differentially influenced by gender and
physiological arousal. Proactive aggression is related to
lower physiological arousal, especially in males, with
females showing the opposite association. Reactive
aggressive behavior is a result of individual responses to
provocation, to which females seem to be more sensitive.},
