Frustration-aggression approaches would say that the bombers were frustrated with a situation in the world with lead to anger, eventually leading to an extensive amount of aggression towards a subject. The observational learning approaches would suggest that the bombers learned their aggressions by watching
“At approximately 2:49 that afternoon, with more than 5,600 runners still in the race, two pressure-cooker bombs–packed with shrapnel and other materials and hidden in backpacks that were placed on the ground amidst crowds of marathon-watchers–exploded within seconds of each other near the finish line along Boylston Street.
