Abstract : Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris
This study was conducted to determine the social support mechanism, emotional literacy and its relationship as a predictor of aggressive behaviour among secondary school students. Skor Keagresifan Pelajar Sekolah (English: student aggression score) or termed as SKiPS was used to obtain the data. The study had been conducted at three secondary schools (N=212) in Malaysia. The findings revealed that social competence of cooperation, social communication competence, emotional literacy, friend social support, and family social support were found negatively correlated with physical aggression, indirect aggression, verbal aggression and authority aggression. On the other hand, a positive relationship was found between the teacher's social support and the student’s physical aggression, indirect aggression, verbal aggression and authority aggression. Findings of this study suggested that increases in psycho-social maturity are associated with decreases in aggressive behaviour. Teachers and education authorities are recommended to include more moral values and provide comfortable and lively atmosphere in school as a way to reduce the tendency of students to develop aggressive behaviour.
