Abstract

The objective of the current paper is to correlate the relation between aggression level of an individual and their involvement in non-suicidal self-Injury (NSSI). It was hypothesized that there will be a strong correlation among aggression and NSSI. To test this hypothesis, aggression questionnaire by Buss and Perry and FASM was administered on a college sample of 120 students, 60 male and 60 females with mean age being 20 years. The results showed correlation between aggression and NSSI with coefficient of correlation being 0.14. A detailed discussion is also presented about the various forms of self-harm being reported and their frequency.
