ResumoConsiderando o fenômeno do comportamento agressivo, inicialmente são apresentadas quatro abordagens teóricas abrangentes: etologia, psicanálise, behaviorismo e teoria da aprendizagem social. Após uma análise crítica destas abordagens, modelos teóricos recentes são apresentados: cognitivismo neo-associacionista, processamento de informação social, interacionismo social e modelo geral de agressão baseado em estruturas de conhecimento. Finalmente, argumenta-se que o emprego de uma abordagem biológica pode enriquecer os modelos atuais do comportamento agressivo, oferecendo explicações tanto sobre as pressões ambientais ao longo do processo evolutivo quanto sobre a influência das interações sociais na organização e funcionamento do sistema nervoso central. Palavras-chave: agressão física, modelos teóricos, biologia AbstractEtiological factors of physical aggression: a theoretical review. Four theoretical approaches are initially reviewed regarding human aggressive behavior: ethology, psychoanalysis, behaviorism, and social learning theory. After a critical appraisal of these models, the recent theoretical approaches of cognitive neoassociationism, social information processing, social interactionism, and general aggression model based on knowledge structures are presented. Finally, it is proposed that a biological approach can be very useful as a way of explaining the environmental pressures throughout evolution, as well as the impact of social interactions on human brain.
