  1. Socialization for aggression in boys will be positively associated with warfare frequency (14).Ember, Melvin - Fear of disasters as an engine of history: resource crises, warfare, and int..., 1988 - 2 Variables

    This study examines some of the environmental and psychological predictors of warfare frequency and interpersonal aggression. Results suggest that socialization for aggression in boys is the most significant predictor of warfare. However, authors suggest that socialization for aggression may be a consequence, rather than a cause, of war.

  6. Individual and socially organized aggression will be positively associated with frequency of war (628).Ember, Carol R. - War, socialization, and interpersonal violence: a cross-cultural study, 1994 - 3 Variables

    This study explores several correlates of interpersonal violence. Multiple regression analysis suggests that socialization for aggression in boys in late childhood is the strongest predictor of higher rates of homicide and assault. Path analysis suggests that socialization for aggression is a consequence, not a cause, of war.

  7. Controlling for mistrust in a multiple regression analysis, natural disasters are positively associated with overall warfare (254)Ember, Carol R. - Resource Unpredictability, mistrust, and war: a cross-cultural study, 1992 - 3 Variables

    The article tests theories that may explain why warfare frequency varies from society to society. The focus is on ecological problems, particularly different kinds of resource scarcity, but social and psychological theories are also tested with both bivariate and multivariate analyses. Because unpredictable disasters are such a strong predictor in nonstate societies, the authors theorize that war may mostly be caused by a fear of nature.
