Reifman (1991) found that as temperatures rise to the hot range, major league baseball pitchers are more likely to hit batters with a pitch. This finding is consistent with ‘The Heat-Aggression Relationship.’

Explanation:

During the major baseball league games, a data was conducted by Reifman (1991) to find out the Heat Aggression Relationship. In this study Reifman wanted to know that when the temperature increases, do pitchers develop aggression or not? And the study showed that as the heat increases, so does the aggressiveness of the pitchers.

They throw balls with such belligerence that they distinctly hit the batters. This shows how temper and temperature are linked and higher the temperature, higher is the likelihood of an increase in temperament.  

new communications technology has affected the way social movements are organized because nowadays, social movements rely on social networks and the media to get different people with a similar way of thinking in contact, and thus, get them to mobilize for a greater cause.

individuals only participate in collective action when they feel identified with it. is in this aspect that social media becomes relevant, because it guarantees communication among all individuals and organizes the social actions that are going to be carried out, i.e., the social movements.

in addition, being covered by the media is important to validate the message and make it relevant in the social agenda, as well as to reach more people who can share interests, appealing to public sympathy for their cause.

in conclusion, it is by social networks and social media that social movement is given birth; by connecting different individuals with similar ideas and organizing them to mobilize for a greater cause.
