TL;DR
The results support the notion that the positive relationship observed between sexuality and aggression is a cross-cultural phenomenon.
Abstract
The present research reports a successful replication of aggression-facilitating effects of exposure to sexual stimulation reported by investigators in the U. S. In demonstrating that also for 29 Israeli when sexually aroused subjects behaved more aggressively than when nonaroused, the results support the notion that the positive relationship observed between sexuality and aggression is a cross-cultural phenomenon.
