Resumen:
This dissertation develops a questionnaire of physical, verbal and indirect aggressionfor a wide age range (from adulthood to elderly), implementing procedures that allow the control of the main response bias (social desirability and acquiescence). Results showed adequate convergent and criterion validity of the I-DAQ, and a better fit of the questionnaire when controlling for response biases. Furthermore we concluded that the scores of physical, verbal and indirectaggressionremain constantwith age, when compared to the scores in adulthood. In addition, with respect to gender differences, adult men are more physically aggressive and indirectly aggressive than women and adult women are more verbally aggressive than men. In elderly, both sexes show no difference in their level of physical, verbal and indirectaggression.
