Zusammenfassung:	Abstract This study investigated the correlation between young males' personal aggression and their skin conductance level (SCL) when watching aggression images. SCL increased when participants viewed aggression images as compared to control images. There was a negative correlation between personal aggression score and degree of change in SCL between aggression and control images.
