ABSTRACT:
This paper will assess the relative importance of a number of factors that contribute to sports violence, and will suggest remedies to the problem. A wide variety of psychology, social, situational, and moral forces are examined. The paper suggests that a powerful socialization process is the primary determinant of sports violence but that other factors also pay a significant mediating role. A conceptual model of the aggression process is presented, which suggests ways to curb violent behavior. Assesses the relative importance of a number of factors that contribute to sports violence. Considers three general approaches to the phenomenon of aggression: instinctive drive, frustration, and learned social behavior. Presents a conceptual model of aggression in order to isolate those variables which can be successfully manipulated to deter violence in sport. Concludes that extensive socialization is the major influence contributing to sports violence, but psychological, moral and situational factors also play a significant role.
