Aggressive personality
Introduction

Aggressive individuals are those whose overall mode of interaction involves mild or
extreme, persistent, and maladaptive aggression. People with this personality employ different
methods to express hostility, such as irritability, agitation, or even physical attacks. Aggression
as a personality trait is different from aggressiveness in life. For instance, being aggressive in life
might mean that a person focuses on achieving their goals. Aggressive personality, on the other
hand, refers to displaying aggressive behavior in a social space, and it is close to the undesirable
end of the trait continuum. Adverse childhood experiences are the leading causes of aggression
in human beings. While people generally become aggressive as a way of coping with their
surrounding environments, an aggressive personality impacts social behavior adversely
The impact of adverse childhood experiences on aggressive personalities
Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) refer to traumatic events that a child under the
age of 18 encounters at home, school, or in society. Examples of ACEs include child abuse and
neglect, bullying, intimate partner violence, and substance use (Khodabandeh et al., 2018). Many
factors expose children to ACEs. For example, violence between parents or other primary
caregivers exposed children to psychological and physical aggression. Unstable homes, such as
the one in which one or both parents are on substance abuse, might also expose children to ACEs
like violence. Some children might also experience ACEs at school, primarily through bullying
or aggression from teachers. Community and collective violence might also expose children and
younger persons to violence. In their study, for instance, Vanfossen et al. (2010) show that
children who live in violent neighborhoods are more likely to become aggressive. Recent
research has also focused on the impact on violent media, such as playing violent video games

and watching crime, which may also increase the risk of becoming aggressive. Soron et al.
(2018), for instance, showed that exposure to violent media by children and adults causes shortterm aggression.
In their study, Khodabandeh et al. (2018) explain that ACEs affect children's relationship
skills and self-esteem, which are risk factors for the development of interpersonal problems and
physical aggression, both in childhood and in adulthood. Many researchers have investigated the
impact of ACEs on crime, and there is overwhelming evidence suggesting that children who
have experienced ACEs are more likely to engage in criminal activities. Child maltreatment, like
sexual abuse and battery, causes anger in children. Many times, anger only grows stronger when
a person becomes older. While in early adulthood, children tend to express their anger through
physical and psychological aggression. Children may also resort to crime as a way of venting
their negative emotions.
