Journal Title: Наука і освіта - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue 9
Abstract
The paper outlines peculiarities of conflict behaviour in individuals characterised by high and low levels of prone- ness to aggression. The concepts “proneness to conflict” and “aggression” have been revealed. The approaches to sub- stantiating the factors affecting conflict behaviour forms and their development have been analysed; their subjective determinants have been distinguished. It has been proven theoretically that conflict behaviour is formed under the im- pact of a great number of factors, i.e. it depends on personal qualities. There have been distinguished objective and subjective factors of proneness to conflict; the latter include aggression, susceptibility, dominance, suspicion, some features of temperament, etc. The empirical study presented in the paper involved 50 students from Izmail State Univer- sity of Humanities aged from 18 to 22 years. In order to study the integral index of aggression, “The Inventory of Quali- ty Indicators of Aggression” developed with O. Sannikova as a co-author and supervisor has been used. According to the level of aggression expression, two groups of the surveyed were distinguished: with highest and lowest values of the integral index of aggression. The analysis of personality’s factor structure in the distinguished groups has made it possi- ble to specify and describe psychological profile of a typical representative of each group. For example, individuals with high level of aggression are prone to conflict, insistent, choleric; they cannot stand competition, do not come under influence of other people, and treat them with prejudice. They assert their rights for independence; do not depend on anybody; act in a brave, energetic and active manner, which may be demonstrated by proneness to conflict. Individuals with low level of aggression are characterised by tolerance, patience, high self-control, stability – they show no prone- ness to conflict. Therefore, it has been empirically proven that conflict behaviour is caused by aggression.
