Recently Tanya has been caught in heavy traffic when traveling to and from work. This situation has caused her to arrive to work late and arrive home at a much later time than normal. When she comes home, she slams the front door and tends to yell more at her children and husband over things that are rather insignificant. This behavior can BEST be explained by the:

a) observational learning theory.
b) cognitive dissonance theory.
c) mere exposure effect.
d) frustration-aggression principle.

dfrustration-aggression principle.

Explanation:frustration-aggression principle is a principle that describes violent behaviors due to accumulated feelings of anger over time leading to  transfer of aggressive behavior to things or individuals not related to the cause of frustration.

For example, Tanya has over time been frustrated due to heavy traffic experienced on a daily basis, and because she cannot take out the aggression on the traffic, directs and pours out her frustration and acts aggressively towards her children and husband for irrelevant matters by slamming the door and constantly yelling.

d) frustration-aggression principle.

Explanation:

In psychology and sociology, the frustration-aggression principle states that aggression is caused by frustration. In other words, we act with aggression towards others when we are frustrated about something, specially when we cannot reach a goal or satisfy an important need. This frustration generated by this, accumulates and generates aggression which is then triggered by a situation.

In this example Tanya has been caught in heavy traffic. This made her arrive to work late and arrive home later than normal, so she slams the front door and yells more over things that are insignificant. We can see that she is likely frustrated by the fact that the traffic didn't allow her to get to work on time and thus this caused her to arrived back at home later. So, now, she is frustrated and these insignificant things are triggering her aggression towards her husband and kids. Thus, this behavior can best be explained by the frustration-aggression principle.

new communications technology has affected the way social movements are organized because nowadays, social movements rely on social networks and the media to get different people with a similar way of thinking in contact, and thus, get them to mobilize for a greater cause.

individuals only participate in collective action when they feel identified with it. is in this aspect that social media becomes relevant, because it guarantees communication among all individuals and organizes the social actions that are going to be carried out, i.e., the social movements.

in addition, being covered by the media is important to validate the message and make it relevant in the social agenda, as well as to reach more people who can share interests, appealing to public sympathy for their cause.

in conclusion, it is by social networks and social media that social movement is given birth; by connecting different individuals with similar ideas and organizing them to mobilize for a greater cause.
