This research intended to investigate the role of personality and
spirituality in nonviolent behavior of students (N = 210; men = 105 &
women = 105) enrolled in universities, between age of 18 and 20 years.
Assessment measures included the Teenage Nonviolence Test (TNT;
Mayton et al., 1998), Spiritual Attitude Scale (Amjad, 1996), Neo Five
Factor Inventory (Costa & McCrae, 1992) and a demographic
questionnaire. Series of moderated regression analyses were used to find
out the predictors of five aspects of nonviolent behavior in men and
women. Overall, the results revealed spirituality predicted all dimensions
of nonviolent behavior, i.e., physical nonviolence, psychological
nonviolence, helping behavior, search for wisdom and self- suffering
behavior in both men and women. Extraversion predicted helping
behavior, search for wisdom, and self-suffering similarly in both men and
women. Agreeableness predicted physical nonviolent behavior in both
men and women while psychological nonviolence behavior in only
women.
