Background : Education plays an important role in reducing aggression and correcting behaviour. The present study investigated the effect of education based on the theory of planned behavior on aggression
Methods :90 adolescents with an age range of 15-13 years. In the experimental group (45 people), five 90-minute training sessions were held in groups based on the components of the theory of planned behavior. Prior to the intervention, there was no significant difference between the two groups in the total score of aggression components (i.e. physical, verbal and hostile dimensions).
Results: However, immediately after the educational treatment and one month after it, these dimensions of aggression and the total score of aggression in the treatment group were significantly lower than those of the control group (p <0.001).
Conclusion :Based on this study, education based on the theory of planned behavior is an effective method in controlling aggression and boosting attitude, power awareness and decision making in adolescents.
