Aggressive Behavior explores disciplines such as Aggression, Injury prevention, Human factors and ergonomics, Suicide prevention and Developmental psychology. The Aggression study featured falls within the wider field of Social psychology. The research on Injury prevention tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Juvenile delinquency, Psychiatry, Longitudinal study and Medical emergency.
Issues in Suicide prevention were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Computer security, Occupational safety and health, Applied psychology and Criminology. The journal focuses on Developmental psychology but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Social relation, Interpersonal relationship, Cognition and Hostility. The journal connects the study in Agonistic behaviour with the closely related area of Zoology.
The most cited papers are organized to reinforce research efforts on Developmental psychology, Aggression, Injury prevention, Human factors and ergonomics and Social psychology. While Developmental psychology is the focus of the most cited publications, it also provides insights into the studies of Social relation, Victimisation, Personality and Victimology. The studies on Injury prevention discussed at the journal publications can also contribute to research in the domains of Psychiatry, Occupational safety and health and Suicide prevention.
Aggressive Behavior investigates areas of study like Aggression, Developmental psychology, Clinical psychology, Human factors and ergonomics and Injury prevention. Research in the field of Social psychology was used to conduct the presented Aggression study. Research in Normative and the interrelating topic of Protective factor were among the subjects of interest in the Social psychology studies discussed in Aggressive Behavior.
Topics in Developmental psychology explored in it were investigated in conjunction with research in Social information processing, Multivariate analysis, Friendship and Association (psychology). Clinical psychology research presented in Aggressive Behavior encompasses a variety of subjects, including Intervention (counseling), Domestic violence, Longitudinal study and Mental health. The presented Injury prevention research focuses mostly on Suicide prevention and, on occasion, topics in Occupational safety and health, Punitive damages and Action (philosophy).
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 1.41% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 14.29% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 14.29% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 18.57% of all publications and 52.86% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
While conducting research and exploring various topics vastly contributes to studies in Aggression, Injury prevention, and other disciplines, it's also crucial to shed light on the academic institutions supporting such explorations.
