Description
This study analyzes the phenomenon of aggression among adolescents, including its origin, the most frequent forms of aggression that we encounter among adolescents, the factors that contribute to its development, as well as its consequences for the future of adolescents and society as a whole. In adolescence, biological, emotional and social changes often lead to increased feelings of aggression. Factors such as the influence of hormones, social pressure, and the modeling of behaviors in their environments are important in understanding adolescent aggression. Aggressive behaviors in this age group are characterized by impulsivity, a sense of threat and conflicts with authority. These behaviors can lead to serious consequences for adolescents, including problems with academic performance, their relationships with family and society, and an increased risk of engaging in criminal behavior in the future. The study included a group of 100 teenagers aged 15-18 selected for the realization of the quantitative study, through the stratified random sampling technique (Stratified Random Sampling) for a more proportional representation of the target population. Data were collected using the standardized Buss-Perry scale for aggression. The study aimed to identify gender differences, the most frequent forms of aggression and what is associated with the level of aggression presence in adolescents.
