Abstract

This article contains information as well as classical models on dealing with ma jor

psychological aggression. A synthesis of scientific highlighted factors which are present in

the psychosocial environment, influence the individual and predispose to aggression is also

performed. The first part comprises the op inion, the definition and explanation of classical

psychologists who are preoccupied with this field. Explicative models that have logically

adjusted up to this point are then presented, as well as the assumptions on origin of the

aggresive behaviour. The following are thus high lighted: the innate cha racter with its

corresponding model, biological-ethological; aggression as response to frustration with the

psychosociologic model; aggression, as learned feature with the socioculturalist model. The

new tendencies of research in the field that describe the role of heredity and genetics

involved in the state o f aggression and violence are not left out. The methods mentioned are:

chromosome research, genealogy research and twin research. Scientific certainties and

controversies regarding the causa l level generating aggresion in human beings are

presented in the paper’s conclusion.

Keywords: aggression, violence, school, frustration, psychologic al.

Introduction

In the field of these potential and real psychological and social dysfunctions, at the

level of the society and that of the individual, part of the local government as well some

parents have lost interest in the problems of children and adolescents who fail to

identify cultural and civic models of be haviour. As social an d individual effects a nega tive

emergence can be seen, and one can state that personal identity, still developing during

childhood and adolescence, is often affected by: deviance of character, aggression and

social maladjustment of an avoidant type. En vironment factors of this visible, constant

dysfunction can be easily identified in socius, we herein specify: the perpetual experimental

education system, chronic poverty, somatop sychic disorders, and the government

institutions’ ch ronic and obvious lack of interest in the formation of the p erson, this whole

picture being easily justified now by the “econo mic crisis”. Individual factors can cause

deviance to some extent, aggressive and criminal behaviour of children and adolescents

having neuropsychological valences. Thus the complex nature of these factors is deciphered

only in addressing biological-personological coordinates. Factorial constellations likely to

produce behavioural deviations primarily in children and ado lescents no longer resemble

those who influenced the society of previous generations, but they h ave already caused
