The Training School students refer to those who violate the law or have misdemeanor, which is the social group lies between the normal behavior students and juvenile delinquency. The current researches have pointed out that the Training School students have more impulsively aggressive behavior than that of normal behavior students. And this research aims to explore and explain the social cognitive reasons of those students' impulsive behavior in the conflicts. The hypothesis of this research is that the impulsive aggressive behavior is on the basis of auto-processing cognition which is essentially different from the deliberate aggressive behavior (post-event aggressive behavior) based on the conscious retrieving. The social cognition of liability judgment is the main focus in this research of aggressive behavior because there exists the close relation between the post-event aggressive behavior and the attribution of responsibility.There are four experiments that are designed in this research to test the hypothesis, which include four specific sab-experiments. In Experiment 1, the time of presenting the conflict stimuli is strictly controlled to study the co-relation of liability judgment in the phase of perception and the attribution of responsibility in the phase of memory. In Experiment 2, the example of exclusion and inclusion presented by Jocaby is employed to study the co-relation of liability judgment in the phase of perception and the degree of conscious involvement. In Experiment 3, the subjects are required to complete the present task and mathematic operation at the same time to distract their attention to study the co-relation of the degree of attention (attraction and distraction) and liability judgment. In Experiment 4, the implicit association test and scale test are employed to explore the implicit and explicit attitude of the subjects to study the impact of attitude on liability judgment and aggressive behavior.The research shows that:1. There exists the significant difference of the Training School students on the liability judgment of conflicts in the perception phase and the responsibilityattribution of conflicts in the memory phase. In the liability judgment phase, the Training School students are incline to attribute the responsibility to others, while in the liability attribution phase they are incline to attribute the responsibility to themselves.2. The process of liability judgment is mainly based of the automatic retrieve, which is less influenced by the consciousness.3. When the Training School students are compared to the general students with good characters, the liability judgment is significantly different on the base of automatic retrieve, while they are accordant on the base of consciousness.4. Compared to the general students with good characters, the Training School students have more tendencies of aggression and attributing the responsibility to others. And what's more, the relation between such tendency and aggression is more solid, which is similar to the implicit attitude. There is no significant difference on the explicit attitude of responsibility and aggression.
