A Social Information Processing Approach to the Study of Children's Aggression

The purpose of this study was to examine the differences between aggressive and nonaggressive boys with the use of a social information processing approach. The subjects were 80 3rd & 6th grade boys selected from a public elementary school in Seoul. The subjects were interviewed individually. Following the presentation of each story, five questions were asked. A 2 x 2 Analysis of Variance was performed for each of the 5 dependent measures. Results showed (1) Aggressive boys were more likely to attribute a hostile intention to the behavior of peer. (2) Aggressive boys predicted their own response as more hostile and aggressive. (3) The 6th graders generated more alternative solutions than the 3rd graders. (4) Non significant results are not reported in the abstract. (5) Aggressive boys were likely to choose an ineffective solution.
