Abstract |
Violence among students has emerged as a major concern in most European countries (WHO, 2008). The present study aims to decrease anger, aggressive behavior and irrational beliefs in secondary school students through their involvement into a universal prevention program based on increasing frustration tolerance. There were selected 200 students that were split into experimental, placebo and control groups. The subjects completed the LFT scale for students, CASI, MPACI, and STAXI-CA. The results showed a decrease of LFT beliefs, anger dimensions and disruptive behaviors. Further research should address the efficiency of a prevention program with a longer duration of implementation. |
