Abstract

The present project aims at knowledging the agressiviness in schools in diferents Brazilian States. A questionnaire that was created by Maria Isabel Pimenta Freire, in the Universidade de Lisboa - Portugal, was adapted to Portuguese Linguage spoken in Brasil. It has been applied in classes of primary and secondary students. This first part of the study will give us a general view about the situation, after this, we will do observations in one school, to know how the agressiviness occurs in the local. In the last time of the research we will propose actions in the schools to minimizing the agressivity. (AU)
