The Influence of Dose, Beverage Type, and Sex of Interactor on Female Bar Patrons' Verbal Aggression

Abstract
This field study is an investigation of the influence of dose, type of beverage, and the sex of confederate on female verbal aggression. The results showed no consistent effects attributable to dose; drinking liquor resulted in less aggressive responses but only when subjects interacted with a female confederate. The results show that studies of alcohol and aggression that use only male subjects do not generalize to females in natural settings and suggest that nonpharmacological factors need more attention in this area.
