The Influence Of The Just World Belief On Aggressive Behavior

The belief in a just world theory has been advanced by Lerner,it argues that individuals believe that they live in a just world where people usually get what they deserve and deserve what they get.So people are willing to use a fair way to achieve their goals,and try to avoid violations of the rules of behavior,they consciously abide by the principle of reciprocity,showing pro-social behavior in the interpersonal relationships.However,we often hear or even see aggressive behavior which goes against social rules,the attacker intimidates the victim,threat or even blame,the recent "Zhong guan cun two small bullying event" "Li jiang beating incident" is to cause the community extensive attention.What is the relationship between just world beliefs and aggressive behavior? Foreign researchers have begun to pay attention to the relationship between just world beliefs and aggressive behavior,but there are many problems that need to be studied in depth.This study focuses on the impact of belief in a just word on aggressive behavior.Three studies have been conducted: study1 to explore the characteristics of just beliefs in the youth community of our country and whether it has an impact on the aggressive behavior,which is working between general and self belief in a just word,and what is the difference between them.Adopt multiple methods to measure the aggressive behavior,in order to test whether the results are consistent.Study 2 to explore what differences there are between different levels of just beliefs when BJW is threatened.Study 3 to explore what role does the attribution play when the belief in a just world is threatened? How does attribution affect the relationship between belief in a just world and aggressive behavior?The conclusions are as follows:(1)The level of general belief in a just world of middle school students is significantly higher than the level of self belief in a just world;Different levels of the GBJW of middle school students in aggressive behavior is significantly different;Different levels of the SBJW of middle school students in aggressive behavior is significantly different;The results of the four methods of measuring the aggressive behavior tend to be consistent.(2)Individuals who are highly just beliefs have increased their aggressive behavior after their belief in a just word are threatened.Individuals who are lowly just beliefs have no change in their aggressive behavior when their belief in a just word are threatened.Individuals who are medium level of GBJW have increased hostility when their GBJW are threatened.(3)When the belief in a just world is not threatened,the inducement of attribution can reduce the aggressive behavior of the individuals who are lowly just beliefs.When the belief in a just world is threatened,the inducement of attribution can reduce the hostility of the individuals who are highly just beliefs.When the belief in a just world is threatened,internal attribution can reduce the individual's anger,hostility and aggression behavior.
