N2  - The present study explored the relationships among levels of aggressiveness, assertiveness, and submissiveness and (1) alternative-thinking ability, (2) judgments of response alternatives on a variety of indices including 'evaluative' and 'potency' dimensions, and (3) consequential thinking, for 188 fourth-sixth grade children. The five best predictors of aggressiveness, of assertiveness, and of submissiveness for both boys and girls represented combinations of alternative-thinking, consequential-thinking, and evaluative-judgment dimensions. The clinical implications of these findings for treating aggressive and submissive children are discussed.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
