“…Paterson et al study on a group of students and university students with high anxiety and non-assertiveness demonstrated that training assertiveness helped relieve stress and improve assertiveness 28 . Warland et al found that university students' scores for assertiveness generally improved after training assertiveness to them 31 . The findings of the present study confirmed the second hypothesis, i.e.…”

The present study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of assertiveness group training on social anxiety (SAD) between deaf and hearing impaired adolescents. Forty eight (24 deaf and 24 hearing impaired) people participated in this study. First, participants with SAD, i.e. attaining the scores above 40 for Connor's Social Inventory Scale 2000 (SPIN), were selected according to convenience sampling and randomly assigned to two groups, i.e. intervention and control. Then, assertiveness group training was conducted for intervention group within 10 sessions, and immediately after completion of the training sessions, SPIN was re-administered to the two groups. ANCOVA showed that the effectiveness of assertiveness group training on SAD is different between deaf and hearing impaired participants, i.e. assertiveness group training was effective on improvement of SAD in hearing impaired participants but not deaf ones. Therefore, it is recommended to incorporate assertiveness group training in the educational programs developed for adolescents with ear disorders especially hearing impairment.

“…As a result of this case and findings, Warland et al (2014), representing a group of educators in Southern Australia, had responded by developing a series of curriculum innovations to enhance the training of student midwives specifically in the area of enhancing assertiveness skills. In the light of Warland et al's (2014) presentation and study findings, although this had a neonatal focus, it was felt that the honing of such 'assertive' skills would be relevant for practitioners in all fields of healthcare delivery.…”

The question “What are aggression and violence?” can be answered in many ways given the many forms that both phenomena can take. This chapter defines aggression and violence and provides a detailed discussion of distinctions that have emerged between different types of aggression. For example, aggression can be classified as physical, verbal, or relational; hostile or instrumental; reactive or proactive; impulsive or premeditated; direct or indirect; active or passive; overt or covert; legitimate or illegitimate; displaced, triggered displaced, or not displaced; and person based, situation based, or both person and situation based. Aggression is also differentiated from similar but distinct concepts including antisocial behavior, juvenile delinquency, coercion, assertiveness, aggressive cognition, and aggressive affect. This chapter provides readers with a clear understanding of what aggression and violence are as well as what they are not.
