TY - JOUR PY - 1976// TI - Effects of class, race, sex, and educational status on patterns of aggression of lower-class youth JO - Journal of youth and adolescence A1 - Luchterhand, Elmer A1 - Weiler, Leonard SP - 59 EP - 71 VL - 5 IS - 1 N2 - The influence of class, race, sex, and educational status on ways of handling aggression and temper control were studied by means of responses to open- and closed-ended questions. The sample consisted of 1844 inner-city youth in two northern cities. Race was found to be the only important discriminator: blacks were less aggressive and exhibited more temper control than whites, but once aggression occurred blacks were more likely than whites to assault others.
