摘要：We present a comparative research about attitudes towards offenders between security force officials from Argentina and Psychology and Law university students. The sample comprises 476 participants. We carried out a multivariate analyses of variance and it was observed that policemen got a lower media in aggressive attitudes (p = 0.0001) and in prosocial attitudes (p = 0.0001), and a higher media in passive attitudes (p = 0.0001). The security force officials’ increase in passive attitudes and the lower scoring in aggressive attitudes, can be attributed to the strong emphasis in the obedience and aggressiveness control that the institution promotes, and it is present in the police trainning course
