“…In fact, the literature confirms a causal relationship with alcohol consumption predicting aggressive behavior (Bushman & Cooper, 1990;Hull & Bond, 1986;Ito, Miller, & Pollock, 1996;Steele & Southwick, 1985). Also, the literature shows that alcohol consumption increases aggressive behavior for individuals higher on trait aggression (Bailey & Taylor, 1991;Eckhardt & Crane, 2008;Giancola, 2002a;Giancola, Godlaski, & Parrott, 2006;Moeller, Dougherty, Lane, Steinberg, & Cherek, 1998). Thus, besides determining convergent validity of the new measure via correlational analyses, using this variable as a criterion in MHMR analyses may be one of the limitations of this study.…”
