Abstract

The article focuses on the effect of taekwondo training on level of aggression. The study took a longitudinal form – the research was conducted over three years (it started in December 2010, and it finished at the end of November 2013). At the time of the first measurement, the study was conducted on a group of 164 taekwondo students (from PUT – the Polish Taekwondo Union). After three years, the training had been continued by 63 people. For comparative purposes, the results of 25 Physical Education students of physiotherapy were used. The study used a Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire (BPAQ). The results have shown the reducing impact of taekwondo training on level of aggression (statistically significant). This is a process only observable after prolonged training.
