|a Recent research has described a relationship between individuals being bullied with those committing acts of violence, including lethal acts, in schools. Therefore, the need for bullying interventions exists. The present study identified aggressive beliefs regarding social representations of aggression (expressive versus instrumental) and levels of aggression in male and female middle-school students after being exposed to a bullying prevention program at a private Catholic school. Thirty-seven students from the sixth, seventh, and eighth grades completed two measures of aggression. Although differences between boys and girls were not found to be statistically significant, trends in the data were consistent with previously reported findings. Post hoc analyses were conducted, indicating that boys in this sample reported significantly lower levels of physical aggression than the standardization sample. Future studies should attempt to strengthen the assessments aggression beliefs, as well as to develop longitudinal research that addresses beliefs about, and levels of, aggression across time. |
