“…This result is in consistent with Jaradat (2006) that found statistically significant differences in rational beliefs among both males and females; whereas differed with results from other studies (Daly & Burton, 1983;Zwemer & Deffenbacher, 1984;McLennan, 1987;Al-Rehani, 987;Marcotte, 1996;and Bridges & Roig, 1997).…”

“…Many studies reported differences among males and females on the irrational beliefs (Daly & Burton, 1983;Zwemer & Deffenbacher, 1984;McLennan, 1987;Marcotte, 1966;Bridges & Roig, 1997;Al-Rehani, 1987;Al-Mousawi, 2005;and Ghnaim, 2002). However, Jaradat (2006) demonstrated that females were more inclined than males to irrational beliefs.…”

“…The moderator analysis revealed that boys have greater physical aggression, but both boys and girls showed similar trend in that their physical aggression increased as their anger and intolerance of rules frustration increased. The level of anger did not differ for boys and girls, suggesting that the findings are equally applicable to both sexes (Zwemer and Deffenbacher 1984).…”

“…REBT theory hypothesizes that certain irrational beliefs, namely thoughts relating to intolerance of rules frustration, intolerance of work frustration, and demands for fairness, lead to anger (Bernard and Cronan 1999;Hazaleus and Deffenbacher 1985;Zwemer and Deffenbacher 1984). The irrational beliefs and anger are thought to be positively correlated, and together, they may better predict aggression.…”

This study examined whether a combination of anger, hostility, and irrational beliefs, i.e., intolerance of rules frustration, intolerance of work frustration, demands for fairness, and self-downing would predict physical, verbal, and indirect aggression and peer ratings of aggression. Follow-up analysis tested gender as a moderator of the relations between irrational beliefs and aggression, and anger and aggression. One hundred thirty-five high school-aged adolescents completed measures of irrational beliefs, anger, hostility, and aggression. Results demonstrated that gender, anger, and an irrational belief of intolerance of rules frustration predicted physical aggression, while anger and irrational belief of intolerance of rules frustration uniquely predicted indirect aggression. Anger alone predicted verbal aggression. Males were more likely to report higher rate of physical aggression and were voted to be more aggressive by their peers. However, gender did not moderate the relations between cognition and aggression, and anger and aggression. Treatment and research implications are discussed.

“…Beliefs and rules represent the content of these schemas and consequently determine the content of an individual's thinking, affect and behaviour. However, the basic premise of this model is that attributional bias, rather than motivational or response bias, is the main source of dysfunctional affect and conduct (Hollon et al, 1986;MacLeod et al, 1986;Mathews and MacLeod, 1986;Zwemer and Deffenbacher, 1984).…”

Personality disorders in prisoners and their motivation for dangerous and disruptive behaviour

The study supported a cognitive model explaining the functional association between personality disorder and antisocial behaviour. Personality disorders act as predisposing factors influencing the development of motivations and subsequently facilitate the enactment of disordered behaviour, in a linear progression. Assessment of personality disorder should be routine in disruptive and dangerous prisoners.
