Anger as personality trait and physical aggression in high school adolescents
This study compared high and low trait anger youth (M of age = 15.92, SD = 0.9) from high school in terms of when, where and towards whom they expressed their anger in physically aggressive ways (e. g., hitting someone, hitting objects). High and low trait anger youth were those who scored in the up...

oai:https:--psicumex.unison.mx-:article-2532021-08-15T07:04:27Z Anger as personality trait and physical aggression in high school adolescents El enojo como rasgo de personalidad y agresión física en adolescentes de preparatoria Alcázar-Olán , Raúl J. Jurado Cárdenas, Samuel Reyes Pérez, Verónica adolescence aggression anger trait anger high school adolescencia agresión enojo enojo rasgo preparatoria This study compared high and low trait anger youth (M of age = 15.92, SD = 0.9) from high school in terms of when, where and towards whom they expressed their anger in physically aggressive ways (e. g., hitting someone, hitting objects). High and low trait anger youth were those who scored in the upper (high anger, n = 125) and lower (low anger, n = 149) quartile in the Trait Anger Scale (Moscoso & Spielberger, 1999). This scale measured the anger proneness or the tendency to get angry in any place with any person. As a result, compared to low anger adolescents, those with high trait anger: 1) showed their anger with physical aggression recently toward other people (e. g., pushing someone) and toward the environment (e. g., hitting the wall); 2) throwed things to their brothers and sisters during the last month, the last week and even today: and 3) slammed their home doors throughout the day (morning, afternoon, and night). The results indicate that relationships with close persons (brothers, sisters) and the adolescents’ houses are the contexts where anger episodes emerged in greater extent, particularly in adolescents with high trait anger. La presente investigación comparó a jóvenes de preparatoria (M de edad = 15.92, DE = 0.9) con alto y bajo enojo rasgo con respecto a cuándo, dónde y hacia quién mostraron su enojo por medios físico- agresivos (e. g., golpear a alguien, dañar objetos). Los grupos de alto y bajo enojo rasgo quedaron definidos por la pertenencia de sus integrantes al cuartil superior (alto enojo, n = 125) e inferior (bajo enojo, n = 149) en la Escala de Enojo Rasgo (Moscoso & Spielberger, 1999). Dicha escala midió el patrón o tendencia de los adolescentes a molestarse en cualquier lugar y con cualquier persona. Como resultado, a diferencia de los jóvenes con bajo enojo, los de alto enojo: 1) mostraron su molestia con agresiones físicas, recientemente, hacia otras personas (e. g., empujar a alguien) y el ambiente (e. g., golpear la pared); 2) aventaron cosas a sus hermanos/as durante el último mes, la última semana e incluso hoy; y 3) azotaron la puerta estando enojados en la mañana, en la tarde y en la noche, cuando estuvieron en casa. Los datos indican que las relaciones de los adolescentes con personas cercanas (hermanos/as) y sus propias casas fueron el contexto donde los episodios de enojo con agresiones físicas surgieron en mayor medida, especialmente en los jóvenes con alto enojo rasgo.
