This is an article from Thomas Scheff from University of California Santa Barbara that goes deep into the subject of emotional suppression in our culture and the possible outcomes it may have.  It discusses violence and other negative side effects that the suppression of emotions can have.  It is helpful that the article talks about the psychological as well as the cultural aspects that I am discussing in my paper.

Another psychology article that discusses causes of aggression and suppression of emotions is the main one.  They perform experiments in which they tell the subjects to suppress their emotions while they are exposed to clips of films that create strong reactions.  They find very good proof of the effects of emotional suppression on aggression.
