Identifying Social-Cognitive Factors Influencing Aggression in Adolescents: A Cross-Sectional Indian Study

Adolescence is a critical period during which the likelihood of experiencing self-regulation failures like aggressive outbursts is increased. Recent Indian studies on adolescents have reported an increasing incidence of aggressive acts during this time of transition, which is a threat to the adolescent, the victim and society in general. This study focuses on the social-cognitive perspective, implying that aggression is a social behaviour that is largely affected by one’s beliefs about the acceptability of aggression and the degree of cognitive and effortful control they have over their emotions. Such beliefs are likely to be influenced by emotion socialisation, wherein parents and peers act as key agents. With this perspective, the current study, through a mediational model, explains the social-cognitive factors predicting aggressive behaviour in adolescents. This is a cross-sectional, descriptive study carried out on a sample of 475 adolescent students from the Delhi-NCR region recruited through purposive sampling. The data were collected through self-report questionnaires from schools and colleges. The model was tested using SPSS AMOS and was found to be a good fit for the data. The findings of this study are crucial from a risk and intervention perspective. It emphasises the need to build socially and emotionally competent students who not only have the skills needed to succeed but also nurture healthy social relationships and maintain positive mental health through adaptive emotion regulation skills.

Managing Aggressive Behavior in Adolescents With Autism Spectrum Disorder: Pharmacological and Non-Pharmacological Approaches.

Adolescents diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often encounter significant challenges, particularly aggressive behaviors that persist into adulthood and profoundly affect their daily functioning and quality of life. These behaviors not only pose hurdles for affected individuals but also present considerable challenges for caregivers and families. Managing aggression in adolescents with ASD requires comprehensive treatment approaches encompassing both non-pharmacological and pharmacological interventions. This paper reviews current interventions that have proven to be effective through empirical studies in managing aggression among adolescents with ASD. By synthesizing evidence-based practices, this study underscores the importance of a multidisciplinary approach involving medical, psychological, and educational interventions to effectively manage aggression among adolescents with ASD. It aimed to inform clinicians, educators, and caregivers of practical strategies and evidence-based interventions to address aggression in this population.

The reliability and validity of Child-to-parent Violence Questionnaire (CPV-Q) among Chinese adolescents

ObjectiveTo test the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the Child-to-parent Violence Questionnaire (CPV-Q) in a group of Chinese adolescents.MethodsA total of 1138 adolescents (15.24 ± 1.17 years old) were tested with the Chinese version of CPV-Q, Parent-Adolescent Conflict Scale, and Adolescent Aggressive Behavior Scale of which 201 adolescents were retested 1 month later. The Chinese version of CPV-Q contains psychological, physical, financial, and control/domain factors with 14 items.ResultsThe four-factor model has good main fit indicators (father: χ2/df = 3.28, CFI = 0.96, RMSEA = 0.06; mother: χ2/df = 3.30, CFI = 0.96, RMSEA = 0.06); the scale has good criterion-related validity. The Cronbach’s α coefficients of the Chinese version of CPV-Q were 0.89 (father) and 0.88 (mother), and the Cronbach’s α coefficients of the four subscales were 0.81 ~ 0.84 (father) and 0.76 ~ 0.85 (mother). The test–retest reliability of the Chinese version of CPV-Q was 0.85 (father) and 0.83 (mother), and the test–retest reliability of the four subscales was 0.80 ~ 0.83 (father) and 0.75 ~ 0.84 (mother).ConclusionTherefore, the CPV-Q has good reliability and validity for Chinese adolescents and can be used as an effective tool to evaluate Chinese adolescents’ violence toward their parents.

Does screen time during early childhood affect adolescent aggressive behaviour?: The moderated mediating role of parenting stress and language ability

ABSTRACT Screens have become increasingly prevalent in children’s lives. This study examined the longitudinal association between screen time and aggressive behaviour by investigating the mediating and moderating roles of language ability and parenting stress, respectively. The analysed data consisted of 1,319 children, aged 5 to 15, from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study. Results found that children’s language ability (age 9) significantly mediated the relationship between screen time (age 5) and aggressive behaviour (age 15), and this mediating pathway was significantly moderated by parenting stress (age 5). Furthermore, the moderated mediation pathway was only significant among groups with medium or high parenting stress. Thus, the negative effects of screen time on aggressive behaviour through poor language ability amplified as the level of parenting stress increased.

Social Undermining and Aggression of Adolescents

The importance of understanding adolescent to make a productive citizen who can contribute for his/her family, society, overall the country, has been recognized by psychologists. The present study focused on social undermining and aggression of adolescents according to the types of adolescents and levels of education. Among the 144 adolescents (student respondents) included in this study 72 were orphans and 72 were non-orphan adolescents (each group constituted 36 secondary students and 36 college students). Bangla version of the Social Undermining Scale (Ilyas and Hossain 2007) and Bangla version of the Measure of Aggressive Behavior (MAB) scale (Rahman 2003) were used to measure social undermining and aggressive behavior of adolescents, respectively. The social undermining score clearly indicated that orphan adolescents were significantly of more social undermining (t = 5.32, df = 142, p < .05) over non-orphan adolescents. However, there was no significant difference between secondary and college adolescents. On the other hand, orphan adolescents had significantly more aggression (t = 4.17, df = 142, p < .05) over non-orphan adolescents and secondary adolescent students had significantly more aggression (t = 3.47, df = 142, p < .05) than college adolescent students. Furthermore, the social undermining was positively correlated with aggression (r = .19, p < .05). The Chittagong Univ. J. B. Sci., Vol. 10(1&2):01-13, 2020.

The Influence of Self-Control on Aggressiveness in Adolescents: A Systematic Review

Aggressiveness is the tendency to behave harshly, violently, or hostilely towards others. It can be physical, verbal, or even emotional. Aggressiveness is often considered a negative trait because it can lead to conflicts and harm both oneself and others. One of the factors that can influence it is self-control, which is the ability to restrain or manage impulsive or excessive urges and behaviors. Eight out of 15 international journals indicate that adolescent aggressive behavior includes various types, such as physical aggression, verbal aggression, and modeling aggression. Self-control has a significant influence on adolescent aggressiveness. The results of the systematic review show that good self-control can help manage and direct aggressiveness toward more positive and constructive outcomes. Other factors that influence aggressiveness include gender, parenting styles, and emotional regulation. Therefore, understanding the interaction of these factors is crucial in addressing and managing aggressiveness to foster healthier social interactions and personal well-being.

Exploring the Relationship between Maternal Gatekeeping with Paternal Parenting and Adolescent Aggression.

Based on the traditional Chinese cultural belief of "male breadwinner, female homemaker", as well as the systemic and interactive characteristics of families, this study aims to explore the relationship between maternal gatekeeping behavior and the quality and quantity of paternal parenting, as well as adolescent aggressive behavior. A total of 483 seventh-grade students completed questionnaires on maternal gatekeeping behavior, paternal involvement, parenting styles, and aggressive behavior. Latent profile analysis identified four parenting combinations: positive, negative, mixed, and neglectful. Adolescents under negative parenting exhibited the highest aggression and experienced the highest maternal gatekeeping behavior, while those under positive and neglectful parenting showed the least aggression and least maternal gatekeeping behavior. Maternal gatekeeping behavior correlated with paternal negative parenting and adolescent aggression. Paternal negative parenting mediated the relationship between maternal gatekeeping and aggression, while paternal involvement moderated this relationship. These findings highlight the role of parental interaction in adolescent behavior and support family-based interventions.

The Influence of Fatherless on Aggression Behavior in Adolescents

Adolescence is a transitional age from childhood to adulthood so it can give rise to psychological problems, one of which is aggressive behavior. Teenagers give rise to brawling, bullying and other juvenile delinquency. Teenagers pay less attention to the norms or rules that apply in their environment and behave arbitrarily, which is quite disturbing to society. There are many factors that cause aggressive behavior, namely economic problems and the absence of a father figure in one's development. The absence of a father figure (Fatherless) will affect teenagers' psychology, including channeling their emotions and showing aggressive behavior. The aim of this research is to find out how fatherlessness influences adolescent aggressive behavior. The research method used is a quantitative research method using a scale in collecting data. The father's role scale was adapted from aspects according to Lamb (2010) which include paternal accessibility, paternal engagement, and paternal responsibility. The aggressive tendencies scale was adapted from Buss and Perry (1992), namely based on the forms of physical aggression, verbal aggression, anger and hostility. The results of research conducted on 200 teenagers show that there is a positive influence between fatherlessness and aggressive behavior in teenagers. The magnitude of the correlation between fatherlessness and aggressive behavior is 0.022 with a significance level or p of 0.038, a coefficient with a positive sign indicates a positive direction of correlation. The hypothesis which states that there is a positive influence between fatherlessness and aggressive behavior is accepted.

The long-term effectiveness of a personality-targeted substance use prevention program on aggression from adolescence to early adulthood.

Addressing aggressive behavior in adolescence is a key step toward preventing violence and associated social and economic costs in adulthood. This study examined the secondary effects of the personality-targeted substance use preventive program Preventure on aggressive behavior from ages 13 to 20. In total, 339 young people from nine independent schools (M age = 13.03 years, s.d. = 0.47, range = 12-15) who rated highly on one of the four personality traits associated with increased substance use and other emotional/behavioral symptoms (i.e. impulsivity, anxiety sensitivity, sensation seeking, and negative thinking) were included in the analyses (n = 145 in Preventure, n = 194 in control). Self-report assessments were administered at baseline and follow-up (6 months, 1, 2, 3, 5.5, and 7 years). Overall aggression and subtypes of aggressive behaviors (proactive, reactive) were examined using multilevel mixed-effects analysis accounting for school-level clustering. Across the 7-year follow-up period, the average yearly reduction in the frequency of aggressive behaviors (b = -0.42; 95% confidence interval [CI] -0.64 to -0.20; p < 0.001), reactive aggression (b = -0.22; 95% CI 0.35 to -0.10; p = 0.001), and proactive aggression (b = -0.14; 95% CI -0.23 to -0.05; p = 0.002) was greater for the Preventure group compared to the control group. The study suggests a brief personality-targeted intervention may have long-term impacts on aggression among young people; however, this interpretation is limited by imbalance of sex ratios between study groups.

The Relationship between the Manifestation of Aggressive Behavior and Personality Traits as a Form of Deviation of a Modern Teenager

One of the pressing problems of modern society is the aggressive behavior of adolescents. Despite the large number of studies devoted to this topic, the question of defining aggression as an interdisciplinary phenomenon, as well as the causes and conditions for adolescents aggression, remains controversial and requires additional study due to the fact that today aggression is not just a behavioral reaction, but can also transform into a stable model of deviant behavior. Society has an objective need to resolve the issue of preventing teenage aggression and clarifying its causes. The author has made an assumption and empirically verified that aggressive behavior in its extreme form - in the form of deviant behavior - has a connection with unmet needs and the level of self-esteem of a teenager. In our study, we rely on the work in the field of aggressive behavior and deviant behavior of E.V. Leus and self-esteem of L.S. Vygotsky. The study was conducted using methods for diagnosing the level of aggressiveness of A. Bass and A. Darka to determine typical forms of aggressive behavior, assess the propensity for deviant behavior of E.V. Leus, studying the degree of satisfaction of the needs of students A.A. Andreev and the test “Personality Self-Esteem” by S.V. Kovaleva. As a result of the study, it was found that a high level of aggression manifests itself in a pronounced tendency to deviant behavior. It has also been established that the level of aggression is directly related to unmet needs for safety and social contacts, and a connection between a high level of aggression and an inadequate (overestimated or underestimated) level of self-esteem of adolescents has been identified.

Rethinking Aggressive behavior in Adolescents: an exploration of the relationship between social Intelligence and empathy

This literature review rethinks aggressive behavior in adolescents and focuses on its analysis through the lens of social intelligence and empathy. Aggressive behavior is essential in adolescence because this period is a critical stage for developing emotional cognition and social skills. This article attempts to explain and analyze how social intelligence and empathy influence aggressive behavior in adolescents. Social intelligence is a crucial factor influencing an individual’s performance in social situations. Empathy is the ability to understand and care about the feelings of others, and empathy is associated with more positive conflict resolution skills. Studies have found a positive correlation between high social intelligence and lower aggressive behavior. Highly empathetic adolescents were more likely to use positive conflict resolution methods, thus reducing the likelihood of aggressive behavior. Finally, the essay makes recommendations for future research, including further exploration of the influence of other factors on aggressive behavior. These studies contribute to a deeper understanding of the complexity of adolescent aggressive behavior and provide a theoretical basis for research interventions.
