Abstract

This study analyzes the relationship between parents’ educational practices and aggressive behavior (physical aggression, verbal, anger and hostility) presented by a group of 437 university students . The instruments used were the Aggression questionnaire (Buss and Perry, 1992) and the Parental Style Assessment Scale (Oliva, Parra, Sánchez-Queija and López, 2007). The results indicate that affection, autonomy, revelation and humor manifested by both parents, are negatively related to the aggressive behavior reported by students. However, psychological control exercised by fathers and mothers was positively related to the aggressive behavior. No relationship was found between the behavioral control of fathers and mothers and the manifestation of aggressive behavior.
