摘要：Adolescence is a crucial developmental stage during which any adolescent undergoes biological, psychological, and, most importantly, emotional changes. During this time, teenage life is more based on external pressures that trigger an unhealthy emotional and cognitive state, either directly or indirectly. Therefore, the aim of this study was to look into the connection between emotional dysregulation and aggressive behavior in adolescents. This study employed a survey design by distributing questionnaires to 159 adolescents. The questionnaire comprised three parts namely demographic profile, emotional dysregulation, and aggressive behavior. As a result, emotional dysregulation was found to be strongly linked to aggressive behavior. These results suggest that emotional dysregulation plays an important role in adolescent aggression by teaching them how to efficiently regulate their emotions and therefore avoid aggressive behavior. These findings further imply the importance of the role of emotional dysregulation among adolescents so that they know how to overcome aggressive behavior by regulating their emotions effectively.
