다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The Aggression Questionnaire(Buss & Perry, 1992) is often being used to measure anger, hostility, aggression which are major symptoms of mental disorders. To develope the Aggression Questionnaire- Korean version, a battery of scales was administered to 565 university students. Exploratory factor analysis showed that two items of anger subscale had higher loadings at other factors than targer factor. So after omitting the two items, exploratory factor analysis was done again. The results revealed that 4 factor model was adequately supported by omitting 2 items. Based on this results, the Aggression Questionnaire Korean-version was constructed and the reliability and validity of this questionnaire was investigated. Internal consistency was acceptable, and test-retest reliability was high, so the AQ seemed to be stable over time. Correlations with other aggression inventories supported consistently validity of the AQ, particularly subscales of the AQ seemed to be measure target traits.
