While the lowest aggressive behavior that the respondents manifest was physical aggression. 3. The aggressive profile of the respondents were assessed and interpreted carefully. Those who experience familial aggression came up with the highest score of 95.27 (Above Average), while those who witnessed got a score of 60.07. CONCLUSIONS: 1.

Since the researchers of this study were only allowed to assess 1st year and 4th year students. 2. School teachers may tie up with the guidance counselor to create a program to inform parents regarding their children’s aggressive tendencies. 3. Guidance counselors must develop a program to focus attention on the aggressive behaviors of their students to avoid further manifestations. 4. Schools must implement assessment plan to assess the experiences of a particular student regarding familial aggression.
