Abstrakt: The article presents research which dealt with the relation of ego control to overt aggression and dependency. The author mentions that the amount of overt aggression and dependence the child manifests is a function not only of the strength of his/her drives but also of the strength of the inhibitions against the expression of these drives. The author also states that in the course of becoming socialized, the child learns to conform with the taboos against the expression of anger, sexual impulses and tendencies to be dependent.
