No, being cold can still make people uncomfortable and on edge. People match or slightly exceed the level of aggression they receive from others. Example: person cuts the 2nd in line or 12th in line, 2nd more likely to be pissed. People expecting frustration were less aggressive than those not expecting it. Kids are shown a room with lots of toys. Half of the kids are allowed to play immediately. Other half told that they had to wait before being allowed to play.
