El presente trabajo profundiza en el estudio de la agresión en menores infractores. El objetivo principal fue comprobar si la reiteración delictiva y la desadaptación institucional al centro de reforma variaban en distintos grupos configurados según diferentes patrones de agresión. Se analizó el historial delictivo y las faltas disciplinarias en el periodo inicial del internamiento, y se aplicó el Cuestionario de Agresión Reactivo-Proactiva en una muestra de 184 menores infractores de entre 14 y 20 años de edad, que cumplían medidas de internamiento en un centro de ejecución de medidas judiciales en la Comunidad de Madrid. Los resultados indicaron que los sujetos agresivos proactivos presentaron un número mayor de delitos y los sujetos con baja agresión incurrieron en menos faltas disciplinarias. Se discuten los resultados señalando la importancia que tiene determinar el tipo de agresión de cara a la intervención y la valoración del riesgo de violencia.

Para comprender la perpetración en la Violencia de Pareja Adolescente (VPA), es necesario conocer cómo ciertos factores ambientales inciden en procesos sociocognitivos subyacentes a la perpetración en la VPA. No obstante, los modelos que contemplan mediadores sociocognitivos y factores ambientales han sido poco integrados al estudio de la VPA, emergiendo la pregunta: ¿Cómo distintos rasgos, respuestas/acciones y actitudes implicadas en los procesos sociocognitivos pueden explicar la relación entre el abuso infantil y la perpetración en la VPA? El objetivo del estudio fue conocer los procesos sociocognitivos en la relación entre abuso infantil y perpetración en la VPA al examinar el grado de asociación entre abuso infantil, impulsividad, agresión reactiva, agresión proactiva, actitudes hacia la VPA y perpetración hacia la pareja.

This study assessed the relationship between motivations and reactive/proactive aggression. The current study assessed a sample of 310 males and 330 females with ages ranging between 12 and 17 years old (mean age=15.2; SD =1.4). The Reactive/Proactive Aggression Questionnaire (RPQ; Andreu, Peña & Ramirez, 2009) and a scale on aggressive motivations against other people were administered. Results showed that reactive aggression was significantly related to "defending another person" and "being insulted", whereas "looking for a fight" and "for a boy/girl" showed the highest correlation with reactive aggression. According to these results, the authors emphasize the importance of considering different motivations as key factors for understanding the role of aggression in adolescents. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

La conducta agresiva constituye un fenómeno complejo en el que se recogen, bajo una misma etiqueta, diversos comportamientos que van a diferir en múltiples aspectos. Dicha diversidad ha llevado a plantear modelos de clasificación entre los que cabe destacar la diferenciación entre agresión de tipo reactivo, considerada como una reacción defensiva ante un acontecimiento determinado, y agresión proactiva, definida por su carácter instrumental, premeditado y ofensivo. Con el fin de analizar los correlatos de la agresión reactiva y proactiva se ha examinado su relación con un conjunto de variables analizadas en una muestra de 138 participantes (12-17 años). Los resultados permitieron observar la presencia de relaciones diferenciales y delimitar el fenómeno de la conducta agresiva adolescente, justificando la diferenciación entre agresión reactiva, relacionada con impulsividad, problemas de internalización o menor competencia a nivel social, y agresión proactiva, caracterizada por menores niveles de ansiedad o neuroticismo, y una mayor presencia de rasgos psicopáticos.

Peer maltreatment due to abuse of power is a type of proactive aggression frequent among schools. Aggressive behavior has been linked to impairments in some prefrontal lobe functions. This study evaluated whether there are differences in inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility among victims, aggressors, aggressive victims and witnesses of peer maltreatment. The sample included 46 adolescents who are among 12 to 17 years old. Differences were found in cognitive flexibility but not in inhibitory control. Aggressive victims showed significantly lower performance compared to other groups in cognitive flexibility. Victims showed higher scores than the other groups and aggressors do not differ from witnesses. These results suggest the differential status of aggressive victims group and they also support evidences which describe aggressors as socially competent. The discussion suggests that intervention processes have to do special emphasis over group dynamics instead of focus exclusively in individual interventions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The psychometrical characteristics of the Reactive-Proactive Aggression Questionnaire (RPQ), designed by Raine et al. (2006), was examined in this work. When applied to a sample of 732 adolescents from Madrid (360 males and 372 females), the confirmatory factor analysis showed that the bifactorial structural model fitted the data better than the unifactorial model. On the other hand, statistically significant differences were observed in both types of aggression according to sex and age of participants. Males showed higher levels of proactive aggression than females, whereas in all the analyzed age groups, reactive was significantly higher than proactive aggression in men as well as in women. The results obtained in this study suggest that this instrument measures two functional types of aggression associated to different processes and motivational mechanisms in a reliable and valid way.

This work analyses sexist attitudes, cognitive strategies and social attitudes in young people between 12 and 16 years of age, attending secondary education. The objective is to identify the psychological inertia that hinders a change in the behaviour patterns of young people who discriminate against women. We explore the presence of significant differences in the variables under study according to gender; we analyze the relationship between sexist attitudes and cognitive and social strategies; and we explore whether the variable, "gender", can predict cognitive and social strategies and attitudes that impede the shift towards a more egalitarian treatment of women. We analyze sexist attitudes and cognitive and social strategies that encourage the inertia of psychological inaction in 1034 high school students. Two instruments were used to evaluate the variables under study: 1. ISA-Adolescents. Inventory of Ambivalent Sexism for Adolescents; 2. AECS. Questionnaire on Social Cognitive Strategies and Attitudes. The results show that these young people do not present cognitive and social strategies that make such change difficult. We verify that men do have sexist attitudes to a greater extent than women, and we show that gender can predict the psychological inertia that makes the change in sexist behaviour patterns more difficult. In the same way, we have observed significant correlations between the variables under study. This work stresses the need to incorporate educational measures that favour an egalitarian, cognitive and socio-emotional development in both regulated education and alternative educational programmes.
