An environment that rarely instils local cultural values can trigger the erosion of ethics and morals.

Efforts to overcome student aggressiveness can be made with group guidance through the internalization of local wisdom values. This study aimed to describe the differences in student aggressiveness before and after being given a treatment of group guidance services through the internalization of local wisdom values (Indigenous Knowledge). The method used is pre-experimental with the One-Group Pretest-Posttest Design approach. The population of this study were all students of class IX at a Madrasah Tsanawiyah.
