Abstract

Street children in Semarang often engage in aggressive behaviors, influenced by their environment and strong group dynamics, leading to hostility towards outsiders. This research explores the factors contributing to aggression among these children and seeks interventions to reduce their involvement in criminal activities, focusing on collective emotions and group dynamics. A literature review analyzed key social factors, particularly social influence, collective identity, and group cohesiveness. The findings indicate that social influence and collective identity significantly drive aggression. The shift from individual to group identity correlates with increased aggression and criminal behavior, exacerbated by shared experiences within cohesive groups. The study highlights the critical role of collective emotions and group dynamics in the aggressiveness of street children in Semarang. Targeted interventions are essential for mitigating these influences and fostering a safer environment. Future research should develop strategies to manage these dynamics effectively.
