Импульсивность - это способность к принятию quick and spontaneous decisions without taking into account the negative consequences. This character trait is the result of self-assured categorization and impatience. An impulsive person is guided more often by feelings and emotions than by reason. This set of qualities gives rise to unconscious tactlessness and rudeness, sharpness and hot temper.
This behavior complicates the relationshipindividual with people around him - relatives, friends, colleagues. An impulsive person can, due to an excessive emotional outburst, burn too much of his own psychophysical energy, after which he experiences weakness and fatigue.
People have this kind of characterenergetic, explosive. They are said to be doing what they first do and then think. An impulsive person is usually a bad interlocutor. When asked, he does not hear the answer. His thoughts jump from one object to another. He may be overly talkative, while he doesn’t care much whether his interlocutor listens or not.
A classic example of such an impulsivecharacter can serve as the hero of Gogol's poem "Dead Souls" landowner Nozdrev. This literary character never thought about their actions. And if some thought flashed in his brain, he immediately began to act, in no way conforming to human logic. He often became the initiator of fights and conflicts, he could lose himself, he never made the right conclusions from his actions.
Impulsive behavior can beprovoked by stress or some nonstandard situation. It is under the influence of such events that an impulsive reaction can erupt even in people who are quite adequate and reasonable in a calm and familiar environment. There are also frequent situations when nervous tension accumulates for a long time, fueled by jealousy, anger, longing, envy, and other circumstances, so that one day spill over into a flash of impulsive actions. Under the influence of the latter, crimes are committed, while the culprit himself is not always able to explain why he committed this act.
Но если подобного рода реакция носит случайный a one-off character, impulsive behavior is the norm for such an individual. This behavior is often the result of emotional and mental instability, lack of adequate reactions, which managed to go into the usual form. The impulsiveness and inadequacy of actions can be affected by the state of intoxication. Often, impulsive actions are committed because of the desire of the individual to assert himself, ensuring his superiority over others, or simply because of the desire to throw out the accumulated negative emotions.
