Assessing Aggressive Behavior in Children

Abstract: Abstract. It is hypothesized that marginal behavioral deviations, through their aggregation, may generate impressions of discomfort and disturbance, leading in their turn to progressive social seclusion, lower self-esteem, and maladjustment. The article describes an attempt to assess the development of a stable aggressive behavior, by means of a neuro-fuzzy model of the relationships between sociometric predictors (popularity/refusal rates among peers, hyperactivity, prosocial behavior) and yearly variations i… Show more

“…In addition to the application of soft computing algorithms in the prediction of human emotion and behavior, there were some other applications of these algorithms in psychology and psychometrics. Application of the Neural Networks Principal Components Analysis ( NNPCA ) to analyze measurement models and latent psychometric structures (Sese, Palmer, & Montano, 2004), application of the neuro-fuzzy model to assess the stable aggressive behavior (Nicole & Caprara, 2005), and the application of two well known soft computing techniques, fuzzy logic and Genetic Algorithms ( GAs ) in the psychopathological field (Di Nuovo, Catania, Di Nuovo, & Buono, 2008) are other examples for the application of the soft computing alogorithms in in psychology and psychometrics.…”

“…Proposals by distinguished scholars in the field of psychological assessment for special sections or issues are highly welcome as are contributions that address innovative methods off the beaten track. A good example is the recently published article by Nicole and Caprara (2005), who introduced a neuro-fuzzy model into the assessment of aggressive behavior in children.…”
