Abstract in brief
The meta-analysis found that men are generally more aggressive than women when not provoked, but this difference decreases significantly when provocation occurs, suggesting that provocation influences gender differences in aggression.
The study indicates that differences in how men and women perceive provocation and fear retaliation partly explain this change, but these factors do not fully account for the reduced gender gap during provocation.
The findings support a social role theory, emphasizing that gender roles and contextual factors like type of provocation impact aggression levels, and they challenge previous meta-analyses suggesting provocation does not lessen gender differences in aggression.]

Men are certainly more likely to be incarcerated for violent crime, though *how much* more likely varies wildly (see the 2x+ shrinking of the gap in the US), for sure.
@Bonanca1302 @JS_thai2001 @mistressfannie There have been several well-documented studies on the topic. The one below is probably the most recognized.

This video explains why psychology is considered a science. The meta-analysis shows that gender differences in aggression decrease with provocation, influenced by social roles and context, challenging previous views.
This video reviews research on the relationship between testosterone and aggression, noting that testosterone levels rise at puberty, spike during competition, and decrease when caring for offspring. More targeted…

@NabinKishor1 You are right on the first statement. But the key word in my comment was "disproportionately". There have been ton of valuable research on rates of aggression and violence by men compared to women. The difference is staggering. See https://t.co/DJLs7dx8aq https://t.co/VLHK9Bsm5S
