Desensitization hypothesis is the notion that people who watch a lot of media violence will become MORE aroused by aggression. True  orFalse

In the context of media violence, desensitization more specifically describes a process “by which initial arousal responses to violent stimuli are reduced, thereby changing an individual’s ‘present internal state’” (Carnagey, Anderson, & Bushman, 2007, p. 491).
The central hypothesis related to emotional desensitization is that higher levels of violence (through a negative quadratic effect) and more contexts with violence would lead to lower internalizing distress, which would be linked with more violent behavior.
Yes, repeated exposure to media violence can be desensitizing. But whether kids will become aggressive, antisocial, or unfeeling depends on a lot of factors: the amount, type, and context of the violence; the child’s individual temperament and makeup; and the child’s environment.

Aggressive acts that are performed for purposes of achieving privileges are likely to be classified as instrumental aggression , hostile aggression , peaceful aggression , achieving aggression

Psychologists have often categorized human aggression as hostile or instrumental. Hostile aggression is “hot,” impulsive behavior that is motivated by a desire to hurt someone; instrumental aggression is “cold,” premeditated behavior used as a means to some other end.
On the other hand, instrumental aggression is when an individual intentionally acts aggressively to achieve a particular purpose. This type is different from hostile aggression because there is no emotional drive in the aggression but a purpose. It also refers to cognitive aggression.

Therapies for Personality Disorders

Psychotherapy is the main way of dealing with and treating mental conditions like personality disorders. Also called “talk therapy,” therapists deal with the patients by encouraging them to talk about their condition, feelings, thoughts, mood and behavior.

The expert group has analysed three psychotherapy approaches from the work available in the literature providing the basis for a scientific evaluation of their efficacy: the psychodynamic (psychoanalytical) approach, the cognitive-behavioural approach, and the family and couple approach.

How might an intervention strategy be different if a child has a neurologically based difficulty with self-regulation? Describe at least two recommended interventions for a child with these needs.

Do not try to talk to them because they cannot respond to logic or reason. Instead, stay calm, show empathy, help them become self-aware, and guide them through sensory experiences and calming strategies. Be supportive and encouraging. Help children feel cared about, valued, and understood as they learn to regulate.
The intervention model conceptualizes emotion self-regulation skills as tools to assist children in reducing problems but not necessarily sufficient. Aggressive behavior, for example, is more likely to occur if a child escalates his/her anger, but may also occur under calm emotional conditions.
