abstract = {Problem statement: A model of violence (Multidimensional Model of Violent Behavior;
MMVB) was tested. Approach: 416 university students were surveyed to ascertain the difficulty they
experience in coping with different forms of violence, violence forms they are prone to exhibit and their
levels of psychopathology. Results: Factor analysis disclosed evidence of the MMVB’s construct validity; and correlational analysis shed light on a) difficulty in handling aggression as a function of the violence forms of the MMVB and b) relations that exist among psychopathology and the MMVB’s violence forms. Conclusion: Implications for the treatment of violence were discussed and recommendations were made for further study.},
