The conference on which this volume is based was one of a series of
symposia initiated by the Department of Psychology at the
University of Hawaii at Manoa on the theory and research
surrounding topics of interest to the faculty and germane to the
Hawaiian community. In order to encourage interaction around
specific themes, the symposium series has assembled a small, select
group of scholars to exchange knowledge, ideas, and enthusiasm with
the resident faculty, students, and the community at large. The
first two symposia concentrated on cross-cultural themes (Marsella,
Tharp, & Ciborowski, 1979; Marsella, DeVos, & Hsu, 1985).
The third one addressed a significant social problem: aggression
and violence in children. At the time that our plan was being
developed, Hawaii, along with mainland states, was experiencing or
at least expressing widespread alarm over the involvement of
children and youth in violent crime, in belligerence at school, as
perpetrators of aggression at home, and as victims of physical
abuse. This symposium was planned around a major area within the
department, the Clinical Studies Program. The Clinical Studies
Program has developed along two interrelated lines of
concentration: one emphasized the foundation of clin cical
psychology in basic science and the other expanded its purview into
the broader community, covering prevention, systems change, and
social networks."
