Journal Title: Jaunųjų mokslininkų darbai - Year 2011, Vol 31, Issue 2

Abstract

The hypothesis brought forward at the outset that the intensity of aggressive behaviour in foster home children would decline under the impact of the educational activities designed by the Non-Aggression Programme of the Baltic Art of Living has been confirmed in part. Aggression intensity in the study participants boys decreased slightly, as with the expression intensity of most forms of aggression (except for indirect aggression, sudden outbursts of anger, and aptitude for conflicts). A slight increase in the number of girls’ self-aggression episodes was observed whereas the expression of other forms of aggressive behaviour slightly decreased. The biggest changes in the intensity of expression of aggression were observed among eight, twelve, fourteen and seventeen year olds, as well as those with normal intellect and slightly confused mental state.
