| Summary: | The role of social factors in the aetiology of aggression is still very unclear. To examine the interrelations between aggression and parental rearing factors, 133 delinquent adolescents and 108 same‐aged schoolchildren from north western Russia were studied by means of the Aggression Questionnaire and the own memories of parental rearing questionnaire on parental rearing. Delinquent adolescents significantly differed from non‐delinquents on aggression scores, as well as on parental rearing factors. Furthermore, the aggression scores in both groups under investigation were related with rejecting rearing practices. Our results point to the aetiological significance of parental rearing in the development of aggression among adolescents. |
