The Aggression Questionnaire (Buss & Perry, 1992) is one of the most widely used validated self-report measures to assess aggression. This study analyzes the factorial structure, internal consistency, and convergent validity of the AQ in a Spanish sample with high levels of violence.
The questionnaire was administered to 767 partner-assaultive men undergoing psychological treatment.
The results of the confirmatory factor analysis supported the four-factor structure. Also, positive correlations between the AQ and other instruments measuring aggression were found, finding that aggression and anger decrease with age in this sample.
The results obtained showed that the AQ is a suitable instrument to assess aggression, anger, and hostility in partner-assaultive men.
攻击问卷(Buss & Perry,1992)是评估攻击行为最广泛使用的经过验证的自我报告测量之一。本研究分析了在一个暴力程度较高的西班牙样本中,AQ 的因子结构、内部一致性和收敛效度。
该问卷对 767 名正在接受心理治疗的有伴侣攻击行为的男性进行了测试。
验证性因素分析的结果支持了四因素结构。此外,AQ 与其他测量攻击行为的工具之间存在正相关,发现该样本中攻击性和愤怒随年龄增长而下降。
所得结果表明,AQ 是评估有伴侣攻击行为的男性攻击性、愤怒和敌意的合适工具。
