    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato/Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud/Carrera de Psicología Clínica, 2024-08-01) Morales Llerena, Washington Rodrigo; Velasteguí Hernández, Diana Catalina Psc. Cl. Mg.
    This research explores psychological well-being, defined as the generation of positive emotions and the absence of negative emotions, improving quality of life and facilitating positive relationships with others. On the other hand, aggressiveness manifests itself as a set of behaviors aimed at causing harm or suffering to other people or oneself, taking various forms such as physical and verbal aggression, anger and hostility. The objective was to determine the relationship between psychological well-being and aggressiveness in university students of Jurisprudence and Social Sciences at the Technical University of Ambato. To meet the objectives, a quantitative approach was used with a non experimental design and correlational descriptive scope. The sample had 101 university students of both genders, between 18 and 26 years old. The instruments used were the Ryff Psychological Well-being Scale and the Buss and Perry Aggression Questionnaire (AQ). The results revealed significant differences between men and women, showing that women tend to react more aggressively in stressful situations. Furthermore, a slight negative correlation was found (Rho= -0.335, p<0.001) using the Spearman test. Finally, these data allowed us to conclude that the greater the psychological well-being, the less aggressiveness and vice versa.
