PAREDES GUAPO, Nadia Fernanda  and  JURADO MARQUEZ, Michelle Ivonne. El Paintball como alternativa para el manejo de la autoagresión. Altern. psicol. [online]. 2009, vol.14, n.20, pp. 68-77. ISSN 1405-339X.

Matson (1989) defines self-agression as a highly repetitive conduct that leads to physical damage. Apart of this, other factors are involved. On another subject, Paintball is a known extreme sport, that not only increases the use of intelligence and determination, but also is an alternative to free stress. This investigation proposes this activity as a positive way to prevent self-harm, because it stimulates character and manages stress.

Keywords : Self Agresión; High-risk Conducts; Self esteem; Depresion; Paintball.
