I would also add that people's experiences with violence obviously color their responses. But the research does show that those exposed to violence, especially as children, are more likely to have a disordered relationship to violent situations: they may be overly sensitive and fearful, seeing violent intent where there is none; or they may have a higher than average tolerance and acceptance, an inability to recognize the cues to a violent situation.
Thanks for this!
