Objective:This research integrated the attribution of responsibility and aggressive retaliation to find their relationship. Methods: 204 subjects attended this experiment, and two structural equation models that reflect the relationship among intentional attribution, affect, responsibility and aggressive retaliation were set up. EQS was used to test the models. Results: The data fitted both Weiner’s model and ours well, which suggested that intentional attribution contributed to the judgment of responsibility and the response of affects, and then linked with the retaliation action. And in this process, judgment of responsibility and the response of affects were two media variables that had two-way interrelationship. Conclusion:A general model suggested here was:intentional attribution →judgment of responsibility, affect response →aggressive retaliation.
