The article is devoted to the study of psychological issues of the relationship between self-esteem and aggression in students studying in different faculties. The main goal here is to study the effect of the levels of self-esteem on the levels of aggression and to reduce aggression by developing self-esteem. 186 students (94 technical faculty, 92 humanities faculty) who studied in the 2nd year participated in the research. According to the study, there is a relationship between the level of self-esteem of students and the level of aggression, and these relationships are significant at p=0.01 and p=0.05. It became clear that the higher the level of self-esteem, the lower the levels of aggression. In addition, it was found that there is a statistically significant relationship between students' self-esteem and aggression, academic achievement and self-actualization. A direct relationship between self-esteem and self-actualization was found (r=0.276; p=0.002). Research has shown that there is a significant relationship between academic achievement and self-esteem. This fact supports the positive relationship between self-esteem and self-attitude. The higher the student's self-esteem level, the more important academic achievement or educational value is to him (p<0.002 level). Thus, depending on the level of self-esteem, aggressive behavior is manifested. This happens at the same level for both technical and humanitarian faculties. The facts show that the aggressive behavior of students with low academic achievement is a psychological defense mechanism, which mediates false self-esteem.

Every year, adolescents’ aggressive behavior in the world continues to increase, including in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Teenagers’ aggressive behavior in Yogyakarta leads to criminal acts resulting in physical sacrifices and death. The aggressive behavior of teenagers is known as Klithih. It develops and continues to increase every year, causing public anxiety and concern. This study aimed to examine the role of mother–child attachment and self-esteem against aggression. Aggression, mother’s attachment, and self-esteem scales were deployed to collect data and were filled out by 730 high school students between 15 and 19 years old from twenty-three schools in five municipalities in Yogyakarta Province (M = 16.52, SD = 0.793, 310 male students and 420 female students). Descriptive statistics described research data by IBM SPSS 23 and structural equation modeling by AMOS v20 to test research hypotheses. The results of the study showed a good fit, indicating that self-esteem might enhance the effect of each mother’s attachment style on aggression. Our study showed that insecure attachment positively and significantly affected aggression and negatively and significantly affected self-esteem. Furthermore, it also revealed that anxious attachment positively and significantly influenced aggression and negatively and significantly influenced self-esteem. Lastly, our finding revealed that self-esteem negatively and significantly affected aggression. These findings suggested that better mother’s attachment and higher self-esteem in adolescents may lower the possibility of aggression, whereas insecure attachment, anxious attachment, and low self-esteem may increase the risk of aggression.
