USAGE
Aggress has occasionally been unjustly maligned as an upstart back-formation, that is, as having been created by people who incorrectly thought thataggression was formed from the verbaggress. As used in the field of psychologyaggress may be a back-formation fromaggression, butaggress has been in general use since the 16th century and in fact antedatesaggression.
Aggress 有时被错误地认为是新的逆构词， 也就是说是由那些错误地认为aggression 是从动词aggress 变来的人创造的。 在心理学领域的用法中，aggress 可能由aggression 逆构而成， 但是aggress 从16世纪起就已经通用，事实上早于aggression 的使用
