It&#x27;s possible that the source of the negative reinforcement matters. In games it comes from either the environment, or from another person who&#x27;s part of a (temporary) outgroup. If you simulate aggression towards that person you will be rewarded. In schools it comes from another person in a position of authority over you, and if you act aggressively towards them the punishment will escalate to you point where you are almost guaranteed to lose.
