Summary/Abstract: The article presents the results of studies on the level of aggression in areas such as emotional and physical self-aggression, displaced, verbal, indirect and physical aggression, hostility towards the environment, unconscious aggressive tendencies, control of aggressive behaviour, and retaliation tendencies in a group of underage girls and boys, compared with a control sample of socially adapted young people. The study established statistically significant differences and trends in the scope of differentiation in aggressive tendencies in the studied groups. Based on the research the author presents practical applications in the form of prophylactic recommendations, concerning the use of educational measures by courts with respect to juveniles who commit punishable acts using violence.
