Aggression - HELP

Hi

I'm doing an Extended Project on Aggression. I want to look for factors that affect aggression. So far, I have found these:

Frustration-aggression theory

Media

Alcohol

Temperature

Noise

Crowding

Genetics

Hormones/neurotransmitters

Gender


Does anyone know any more?
Can anyone recommend studies/websites that explain these factors? I definately don't want to plaigarise so more sources = better

Thank you
If you can get hold of an AQA psych text book, there's a section on aggression.

Damage to the brain (what parts, I couldn't tell you).

You could also mention XYY geneotype, but say that it's generally discredited nowadays.
