Bindung, Angst und Aggression

Prevention, counseling, and psychotherapy in dealing with anxiety and aggression disorders. Aggression and anxiety often arise early in childhood development and can evolve into serious emotional and social disorders, even leading to criminal behavior. Internationally renowned experts demonstrate what can be done in prevention, counseling, and psychotherapy. It is becoming increasingly important to understand the emergence of hostile prejudices and aggressive behavior in young people. Only in this way is it possible to recognize aggression and the often underlying fears at an early stage or even prevent them through appropriate preventive measures. The contributions address questions related to the development of anxiety and aggressiveness. They illustrate how suitable preventive measures, counseling, and psychotherapy can prevent such developments and treat their manifestations. The contributions focus on issues such as: - Violence in media and its effects on youth and society, - Bullying among students, - The impact of violent portrayals in film and television on brain development, - Restless-aggressive boys, - Child pornography on the internet and ritual abuse.
