Zusammenfassung:Highlights ► Twelve etiological models of aggression-related psychopathologies are reviewed. ► Hypothalamic mechanisms tightly bound to the execution of attacks are in focus. ► Mechanisms underlying abnormal aggression show qualitative differences. ► Differences should be viewed as alternative mechanisms rather than conflicting data. ► Relevance for treating of aggression-related psychopathologies is discussed.
