Abstract
We used citation-network-analysis to characterize the literature topology of human aggression (case study). We identified 15 research-communities. Our approach may provide a valuable resource for psychological scientists by outlining research-communities and their growth over time, identifying influential papers within each community, and providing opportunities to increase gender-equity in the field.
