Kinder an die Macht? – Machiavellismus im Kindes- und Jugendalter
Abstract
Zusammenfassung. Der Wunsch nach Macht und sozialer Dominanz spielt bei der Entstehung von sozialer Aggression bei Kindern und Jugendlichen eine bedeutsame Rolle. Obwohl das Konstrukt Machiavellismus diese Aspekte gut abbildet, hat es im deutschsprachigen Raum kaum Verbreitung gefunden. In diesem Übersichtsartikel wird daher das Konstrukt Machiavellismus dargestellt. Bisherige Untersuchungen zum Zusammenhang von Machiavellismus und insbesondere aggressivem Verhalten werden kritisch diskutiert und Implikationen für zukünftige Studien abgeleitet.
Abstract. The desire for power and social dominance plays a significant role in the development of social aggression. Although the construct of Machiavellianism reflects these aspects well, it has hardly been recognized in Germany. In this review article the construct of Machiavellianism will be presented. Previous research on the relationship between Machiavellianism and particularly aggressive behavior in children and adolescents are critically discussed and implications for future studies are derived.
