The number of people acting in aggressive ways seems to suggest that the aggressive personality is becoming more prevalent.This is a report of an investigation into the prevalence of aggressive personalities within a particular school in Gauteng. The results of the research indicate that the prevalence of aggression and aggressive behaviour is substantially higher than that of the general population.Further research was conducted, to determine the factors that may influence this trend, and focussed on pedagogical actions and processes utilised by the teachers in the reference school, as well as through interviews with a number of learners.Aggressive personalities are relatively easy to spot:competitive natures, in-your-face confrontations and lack of control of emotion are common.
