Hostility Test
Hostility is composed of three elements: hostile
cognitions, hostile emotions, and hostile behavior. The cognitive component can
consist of cynicism, resentment, judgmental tendencies, a patronizing attitude
or a tendency to ruminate on past injustices. The emotional component may
involve anger, contempt, hatred or shame, the latter often a result of hostility
directed inward. Finally, the behavioral component of hostility results from the
combination of hostile cognitions and affect, and consists of any action,
physical or verbal, that is intended to harm. Hostility can have rather severe
repercussions. It can interfere with effective communication, create problems at
school or work, and destroy relationships. Psychologists have been working on
hostility reduction techniques for years, but recent findings may increase their
urgency. New research indicates that hostility could also be damaging to
physical health.

Snapshot Report
Hostile Behaviors
18/100
Your
responses indicate that you almost never exhibit hostile behaviors. In fact, you
hardly react at all, likely choosing to let things go rather than push the
issue. However, your calm demeanor does not mean that you are not hostile on the
inside. Although harsh words and force are not positive ways to react to others,
you may be losing out by not standing up for yourself when necessary. Consider
the rewards of becoming more assertive.
