§To study aggression in children, researchers ask questions about variation,
such as:
§Do children who watch a lot of violent TV shows behave more aggressively than
children who watch few violent TV shows?
§Do children who had poor early environments behave more aggressively than children
who had good early environments?
§Do children who behave more aggressively have different in hormone levels
than children who behave less aggressively?
§In
each case, variation in aggression is related to variation in another feature
(TV, poverty, biology).
