Correlation study of aggression with impulsivity, cognitive ability, emotional intelligence, and executive function in female prisoners.

The present study examines the relationship between aggression, impulsivity, executive function, cognitive ability, and emotional intelligence in a female population. According to previous research, aggression is expected to correlate positively with impulsivity and negatively with critical ability, cognitive ability, and emotional intelligence. A total of 88 participants, 44 female inmates in the Attica’s Korydallos Female Prison and 44 non-criminals from Attica’s general population participated in the present study and completed a battery of questionnaires (Bush & Perry Aggression Questionnaire, UPPS-P, P.E.D.L., RAVEN Progressive Matrices, E.K.SY.N.) between November 2017 and June 2018. The results have partially confirmed all of our hypotheses. For the total of the participants, impulsivity had a positive correlation with aggression, while the other three variables had a negative correlation. Comparing the two subgroups, non-criminals were characterized by slightly higher Lack of Premeditation and Lack of Perseverance for impulsivity. Female inmates experienced stronger feelings of hostility, expressed more physical and verbal aggression, and presented lower executive function and intelligence (g) than non-criminals. Finally, female prisoners lagged behind perception, expression, and control of emotions while outweighing in understanding and caring for others (emotional intelligence).
