Aggressive behavior refers to the behavior or behavior pattern that individuals intend to do harm to others in their social life,causing the victim to escape or causing harm to the victim.The generation of juniors' aggressive behavior is influenced by environmental factors.For junior school students with strong learning ability,they are exposed to violent environment,and it is especially easy for them to learn attack paradigm implicitly.In recent years,violence exposure has been widely concerned by researchers.Violence exposure refers to the clues related to violence stimulation that individuals perceive(hear,see,experience or contact,etc.)in their daily life,which have a negative effect on their cognition,emotion and behavior.Violent environmental exposure is not only positively correlated with rumination but also one of the main predictors of rumination.Juniors who are exposed to violent environmental exposure would repeatedly think about the scene of Incidents of violence,and thus there is rumination.The emergence of rumination can lead to impaired executive function,psychological and physical disorders,and the activation of attack schema.Therefore,this study introduces rumination to explore whether rumination mediates between violent exposure and aggressive behavior.Aggression is also regulated by individual factors.Therefore,this study introduces forgiveness variables to explore whether they play a regulating role among violence exposure,aggression and rumination,and thus attempt to study the intrinsic influence mechanism of violence exposure on juniors' aggression.This study selected 755 junior middle school students from Shandong Province as research subjects,and conducted a questionnaire survey by using the Adolescent Aggression Questionnaire,the Violence Exposure Questionnaire,the Rumination Response Scale and the Forgiveness Scale to explore the relationship between aggression and violence exposure,as well as the role of rumination and forgiveness,the study found that:(1)Juniors' aggression has significant differences in gender and grade.(2)The degree of violence exposure has an obvious positive effect on the aggressive behavior of junior school student.(3)There is a significant positive correlation among aggression,violence exposure and rumination.Ruminative responses partly play the intermediate role in the relation between violence exposure and aggressive behavior in junior school student.(4)The forgiveness level plays a regulating role in the intermediary process of violence exposure?rumination thinking?aggression,and the four variables constitute a regulated intermediary model.The forgiveness level positively regulates the direct path of the intermediary model.Compared with low forgiveness levels,aggression in subjects with high forgiveness levels is more predictable in violence exposure.The self-forgiveness dimension plays this moderating role.Based on the above,it can be concluded that: violence exposure significantly positively predicts juniors' aggression;rumination is the mediator variable of violence exposure and aggression;forgiveness is the moderator variable of violence exposure and aggression,and self-forgiveness dimension plays this moderating role.
