Abstract
Access to information among teenagers in recent years has led to unlimited manifestation of aggression. Often this has been witnessed in the increasing number of adolescents institutionalized for aggressive behavior. The current study aims to assess aggressive behavior in two forms: as trends in the violation of rules and in the form of aggressive behavior in a group of institutionalized adolescents. Our study included: 60 subjects in the study group (30 institutionalized subjects, 30 non- institutionalized subjects). From the Achenbach System of Empirical Based Assessment (ASEBA) we used Youth Self-Report and focused on the subscales: aggressive behavior and rule violation behavior which is considered significant for our study. Age range between 14-18 years. The results showed that aggressive behavior and breaches in social norms appear to be characteristic of institutionalized adolescents. The results obtained in this research showed that in terms of aggressive behavior, the level was higher among institutionalized adolescents.
