This article replies to research conducted by B. J. Bushman, M. C. Wang, and C. A. Anderson and demonstrates that the results of prior research by E. G. Cohn and J. Rotton do support the existence of a curvilinear relationship between temperature and aggression when time of day is taken into consideration. The shape of the relationship between temperature and aggression also depends on a number of other factors, including season, amount of social interaction, type of violence, and type of setting. It appears that linear relationships between temperature and aggression identified by B. J. Bushman et al. are less ubiquitous than might be believed and that the curve is still out there.
本文回应了B. J. 布什曼、M. C. 王和C. A. 安德森所进行的研究，并表明E. G. 科恩和J. R. 罗顿之前的研究结果确实支持在考虑一天中的时间时，温度与攻击性之间存在曲线关系这一观点。温度与攻击性之间关系的形态还取决于许多其他因素，包括季节、社会互动量、暴力类型和环境类型。看来，B. J. 布什曼等人所确定的温度与攻击性之间的线性关系并不像人们认为的那样普遍存在，而这种曲线关系仍然存在。
