However, the predictive power of the maladaptive traits was greater for bullying than for cyberbullying; it is possible that the expression of aggression via digital media requires a lower level of personal dysfunction, due to the
disinhibitory role of anonymity and the numerous, readily available, opportunities for displaying aggressive behaviour online.
We've riffed endlessly on the whole "Cigare" theme and for a while even packed the bottles in a sort of oversize Cigare box, replete with faux-governmental warnings ("Will lead to
disinhibitory behavior") and a citation that it was bottled in La Republica Doonimicana.
The authors write that such strategies may be "driving patients' brains further toward, rather than away from, the pathological
disinhibitory state that has long been associated with tinnitus."
The drug has been most strongly associated with the 'chem sex' phenomena, due to its
disinhibitory effect but also commonly used as a recreational drug in clubbing.
Although cyberbullying shares some features with traditional bullying, such as power imbalance and intentionality, there are noteworthy distinguishing features: anonymity (Lapi-dot-Lefler & Barak, 2012; Moore, Nakano, Enomoto, & Suda, 2012), the
disinhibitory effect of the Internet (Casale, Fiovaranti, & Caplan, 2015), the size of the audience (Sticca & Perren, 2012) and repetition (Ybarra, Espelage, & Mitchell, 2014).

disinhibitory microcircuit to the critical period in visual cortex," The Journal ofNeuroscience, vol.
During wrist movement, Purkinje cells (PCs) with somatosensory receptive fields (RFs) in the distal arm are strongly suppressed before movement onset, while DNs with the same RFs show concurrent bursts of activity (
disinhibitory control on DNs).
In addition, he identified four non-aversive types of instigators: incentive (which prompted the individual to act aggressively because he or she anticipates positive consequences), modeling (which could have four different functions--directive,
disinhibitory, emotional arousal, and stimulus-enhancing), instructional (a rewards and punishment system of compliance and obedience), and delusional instigators, or what he referred to as "bizarre beliefs" (Bandura, 1983, p.

Recent studies draw attention to the use of benzodiazepines in cases with manifested suicide risk, on the one hand, due to the "arming" of these persons with a treacherous self-destructive "weapon" and, on the other hand, due to the
disinhibitory effect upon the behavior.
