Abstract: Mental retardation is a condition that requires special attention, cured in a child's mental retardation with
limitations in self-functioning that will interfere with normal adaptation to the environment. Children who
are experiencing mental development, especially less developed symptoms (Maramis, 2005). Aggression is
a physical or verbal behavior that is intended to injure the object of aggression. A behavior can be
categorized as an aggression behavior if there is intention and hope to harm or damage the object of
aggression and the desire of aggression to repel the intended aggression. Aggression is closely related to
anger. When a person is angry, there is usually a feeling of wanting to attack, punching, destroying or
throwing things and usually arises a cruel mind. When things are channeled then there is aggression
behavior. Control of Aggression Behavior in Mental Retardation Students can be done by empowerment of
Counseling Guidance and Teacher Social Competence. The study aims to determine the influence of
Counseling Guidance and Social Competence on the Control of Aggression Behavior on Mental Retardation
Students. The research method is quantitative method. Population and sample are all teachers in private
university foundation with total 37 people. Analysis Result is Counseling Guidance and Social Competence
Teachers able to explain equal to 87,0% variation of dependent variable (Control of Aggression Behavior on
Mental Retardation Student,). Partially Guidance Counseling on Control of Aggression Behavior in Mental
Retardation Students. Partially there is significant influence between Teacher Social Competence (X2) with
Control of Aggression Behavior on Mental Retardation Student (Y). So from this case can be concluded
partially Teacher's Social Competence is against Aggressive Behavior Control on Mental Retardation
Student. There is a Difference Counseling Guidance and Social Competence of Teachers against Control of
Aggression Behavior on Mental Retardation Students. Suggestion for School, counseling guidance
counseling program need to be ensured. Control of Aggression Behavior in Mental Retardation Students.
More perfect For teachers, the competence of teachers should be strived to awake Control of Aggression
Behavior on Mental Retardation Students the better.
1 INTRODUCTION /
BACKGROUND
According to the World Health Organization, mental
retardation is an inadequate mental ability. A person
with mental retardation is a child with a mental or
behavioral disorder, which can be caused by a
congenital defect, or a person who has mental
disorders caused by organobiological or functional
factors that result in a change in the nature of the
mind, the nature of feelings and deeds so as to have
social problems within meet the needs of education,
earn a living, and in social activities (Ministry of
Health, 2010).
Mental retardation is a condition that requires
special attention, because the child's mental
retardation experience limitations in the functioning
of himself so that would interfere with normal
adaptation to the environment. Usually there is a
lack of overall mental development, but the main
symptom of prominence is retarded intelligence
(Maramis, 2005). The normal functioning of a
normal child is to perform physical and sensory
activities, such as general motor (sitting, crawling,
standing, walking alone), language (speaking of
words, two expressions of phrase), personal and

social (responsive smile , eating independently,
drinking using a cup, using a spoon, controlling
bowel movements, dressing themselves)
(Selikowitz, 2001), but in children with mental
retardation will experience delays compared to
normal children of the same age. This is
demonstrated by the inadequacy of caring and caring
behavior, socializing with peers, communicating and
other adaptive skills (Shea, 2006)
A child with mental retardation is a child who
has substantial limitations in present functioning
characterized by the phenomenon of below-average
intellectual functions that simultaneously relate to 2
or more areas of adaptive ability such as
communication, attention self-care, home life, social
skills, community use, self-help, health and safety,
academic, recreational and work functions.
Aggression is a physical or verbal behavior that is
intended to injure the object of aggression. A
behavior can be categorized as an aggression
behavior if there is intent and hope to harm or
damage the object of aggression and the desire of the
object of aggression to avoid aggression directed to
it. Aggression is often closely related to anger.
When someone is angry, there is usually a feeling of
wanting to attack, punching, destroying or throwing
things and usually arises a cruel thought. When
things are channeled then there is aggression
behavior.
The most visible forms of aggressive behavior
are hitting, fighting, screaming, shouting, refusing to
follow orders or requests, crying or destroying.
Children who show this behavior usually we think of
as a troublemaker or troublemaker. In fact, children
who do not experience emotional or behavioral
problems also display the behaviors as mentioned
above, but not as often or as conclusively as children
who have emotional or behavioral problems.
Children with aggressive behavior usually get
additional problems such as not received by friends
(hostile, shunned, not invited to play) and considered
a problem maker by the teacher. Such aggressive
behavior is usually reinforced by strengthening of
the status environment, considered great by peers, or
obtaining something to be desired, including seeing
a friend cry when hit by him or her. Goleman (1996)
states that from some research results in dealing with
students' aggressive behavior in school, social and
emotional skills learning programs show positive
results. Students who are involved in the program
are getting less aggressive. Goleman (1996: 274)
states: "... and the longer they have been in the
program, the less aggressive they were as
teenagers".
Based on some of the above opinions, students'
aggressive behavior can be reduced through social
and emotional skills learning programs. It is difficult
to compile a comprehensive list of what social skills
a child should have in order to always succeed in his
social interactions, because as social life itself,
opportunities for social success can also change over
time, context, and culture.
The student's aggressive behavior at school has
become a universal problem (Neto, 2005), and lately
has tended to increase. News about the involvement
of students in various forms of riot, fighting,
fighting, and other acts of violence is increasingly
heard. Aggressive behavior of students in schools is
very diverse and complex. The problem of
aggressive behavior of students is increasingly
complex when aggressive behavior recently also
shown by teachers, there are teachers who beat
students, some even to torture / kill their students.
Aggressive behavior that occurs in the educational
environment if not immediately addressed, in
addition to disrupt the learning process, will also
cause students tend to adapt to these bad habits.
Such situations will shape the students to imitate and
behave aggressively too, so that the students'
aggressive behavior in school is considered normal
and will be widespread.
School, it should be a fun place, a safe and
healthy place, where students can develop their full
potentials completely. However, entering into a
school environment for a student is not always fun,
it may actually make them stressful, anxious and
fearful. The shadow of violence when entering the
school environment often haunts students.
According to Todd, Joana, et al. (in Nataliani, 2006),
physical and verbal violence among students has
become a serious problem in many countries around
the world. The students' aggressive behavior has had
a negative impact, both for the students themselves
and for others. Children who experience violence
will experience problems later in life both in terms
of health and life.
One of the factors that can affect the students'
mental retardation is counseling guidance (BK).
Guidance and counseling is a process of providing
assistance to develops itself optimally, so that it can
be self-sufficient and or take decisions are gradually
being answered. So what you want to achieve with
guidance is optimal level of development for each
individual according to his ability. Another factor
that affects the aggressive behavior of students is the
social competence of teachers. According to Buchari
Alma (2008: 142), social competence is the ability
of teachers to communicate and interact effectively

with the school environment and outside the school
environment. A teacher should seek to develop
communication with the parents of the learners in
order to establish sustainable two-way
communication. With the two-way communication,
learners can be monitored better and can develop the
character more effectively as well. Suharsimi also
gave his argument about social competence.
According to him, social competence must be owned
by a teacher, which teachers must have the ability to
communicate with students, fellow teachers,
principals, and the surrounding community.
Teachers are in charge of creating a pleasant
learning climate so that students can learn
comfortably and happily. Student creativity can be
developed if the teacher does not dominate the
communication process of learning, but the teacher
teaches more, inspires them to develop their
creativity through various learning activities so that
students get various learning experiences It can give
psychological freshness in receiving information.
This is where the process of individualization and
the process of socialization in educating

4 THEORETICAL STUDIES /
CONCEPTS MENTAL
RETARDATION
According to the International Stastistical
Classification of Diseases and Related Health
Problems (ICD-10), mental retardation is a state of
stalled or incomplete mental development,
characterized mainly by the impairment of skills
(skills, skills) during development, at all levels of
intelligence, cognitive, linguistic, motor and social
skills. Mental retardation can occur with or without
mental disorders or other physical disorders. The
prevalence of other mental disorders is at least three
to four orders in this population compared with the
general population (Lumbantobing, 2006).
According to Wiyani (2014: 102) child mild mental
retardation (mild mental retardation) is a child who
can be educated (debil). They can not attend regular
school programs, but still have the skills that can be
developed through educational activities. Abilities
that can be developed in children with mild mental
retardation include: reading, writing, spelling,
counting, adjusting, being independent of others, and
can have simple skills for future employment.
If there are other disorders - Cerebral palsy;
visual & hearing impairment; epilepsy disorder;
speech impairment and other disorders in language,
behavior and perceptions-hence what needs to be
done to achieve optimal results is required
continuous physical therapy, occupational therapy,
speech-language therapy, adaptive equipment such
as glasses, hearing aids, anti-epileptic drugs and etc.
Need a proper diagnosis to establish the disorder,
beyond just the level of intelligence.
4.1 Counseling Guidance
Counseling is a personal, face-to-face relationship
between two people in which the counselor through
the relationship with his special abilities, provides a
learning situation. In this case the counselee is
assisted to understand himself, his current situation,
and the possibility of future circumstances that he

Technology

can create by using his potential, for the sake of
personal and community welfare. Furthermore
counselees can learn how to solve problems and find
the needs that will come. (Tolbert, in Prayitno 2004:
101).
Jones (Insano, 2004: 11) mentions that
counseling is a professional relationship between a
trained counselor and client. This relationship is
usually individual or individual, although it
sometimes involves more than two people and is
designed to help the client understand and clarify his
views on the scope of his life, so as to make a
meaningful choice for himself. Guidance and
Counseling is the process of interaction between
konselordengan konseli either directly or indirectly
in order to assist the counselee in order to develop
his potential or even solve the problems he
experienced.
4.2 Master's Social Competencies
According to Buchari Alma (2008: 142), social
competence is the ability of teachers to communicate
and interact effectively with the school environment
and outside the school environment. A teacher
should seek to develop communication with the
parents of the learners in order to establish
sustainable two-way communication. With the two-
way communication, learners can be monitored
better and can develop the character more effectively
as well. Suharsimi also gave his argument about
social competence. According to him, social
competence must be owned by a teacher, which
teachers must have the ability to communicate with
students, fellow teachers, principals, and the
surrounding community. In the National Education
Standards, Article 28 paragraph (3) point d, it is
argued that what is meant by social competence is
the ability of teachers as part of the community to
communicate and get along effectively with learners,
fellow educators, education personnel, parents /
guardians of learners , and surrounding communities
5 METHOD
The method used is quantitative method. The
population of this study is all teachers who beraada
on private university foundation with the number of
37 people at once. became the sample in this study.
The sampling technique is the total sample. Stages
of test instruments, Test Assumptions and
hypothesis testing is done that is to know the
director between Counseling Guidance and Social
Competence Teacher Against Control Aggression
Behavior in Mental Retard ation Students
6 RESULT OF ANALYSIS
From the assumption test results, by looking at the
histogram graphic display, it appears that the
histogram image has bell-shaped and does not lean
to the left indicating that the data is normally
distributed. With a normal probability plot there is
spreading of dots around the diagonal line and its
distribution follows the direction of the diagonal
line, which means the distributed data is normally
distributed.
From the table it can be seen that the VIF value
of Counseling Guidance (X1) and Teacher Social
Competence (X2) has each VIF value less than 10
(VIF <10). For Tolerance values each Tolerance
value variable <1. Thus, it can be concluded that
there are no symptoms of multicollinearity.
For heterocedasticity test of the image it is seen
that the points spread randomly, either at the top of
zeros or at the bottom of the number 0 of the vertical
axis or Y axis. Thus, it can be concluded that there is
no heterokedatisitas in this regression model.
The multiple linear regression equation
as follows:
Y '= a + b1X1 + b2X2 +
Y = 0.825 + 0. .070 X1 + 0. 098 X2
Information:
Y = Control of Aggression Behavior in Mental
Retardation Students
a = constants
b1, b2, = regression coefficients
X1 = Counseling Guidance
X2 = Teacher Social Competency
The above regression equation can be
explained as follows:
a. Constant of 0.825; meaning that if Counseling
Guidance (X1), and Teacher Social Competence
(X2) value is 0, then Control of Aggression
Behavior on Student Mental Retardation (Y) its
value is 0.825.
b. Coefficient of variable regression Counseling
Guidance (X1), equal to 0.070; meaning that if
other independent variables are fixed and
Counseling Guidance (X1) increases 1%, the
Control of Aggression Behavior on Mental
Retardation Student (Y) will increase by 0.070.
Coefficient of positive value means a positive
relationship between Counseling Guidance (X1)
with Aggression Behavior Control on Mental
Retardation Students, the Better Counseling
Influence Analysis of Counseling Guidance and Social Competence of Teachers against Control
19
Guidance (X1) then the better Control of
Aggression Behavior in Mental Retardation
Students (Y)
c. Regression Coefficient of Teacher Social
Competence variable (X2), amounted to 0. 098;
meaning that if other independent variables are
fixed value and Teacher Social Competence
(X2), increase 1%, then Control of Aggression
Behavior on Mental Retardation Student (Y)
will increase by 0. 098. Coefficient of positive
value means a positive relationship between
Master's Social Competence (X2) with
Aggression Behavior Control on Mental
Retardation Students, the Better Teacher's
Social Competence (X2), then the Increasing
Control of Aggression Behavior on Mental
Retardation Students
From the result of regression analysis,
based on the above table, the number of R2 (R
Square) is 0,870 or (87,0%). This shows that the
percentage of contribution of independent variables
(Counseling Guidance and Teacher Social
Competence) to the dependent variable (Control of
Aggression Behavior on Mental Retardation
Students,) amounted to 87.0%. Or variations of
independent variables used in the model (Counseling
Guidance and Teacher Social Competence) are able
to explain by 87.0% variation of dependent variables
(Control of Aggression Behavior in Mental
Retardation Students,). While the remaining 13% is
influenced or explained by other variables not
included in this research model.
Based on the table obtained F arithmetic of
111.139. Using a 95% confidence level, = 5%,
obtained for F table of 2.79. F value count> F table
(111.139> 2.79), then Ho is rejected. Because F
arithmetic> F table (111.139> 2.79), then Ho is
rejected, meaning there is a significant influence
between (Counseling Guidance and Teacher Social
Competence) together against the dependent variable
(Control of Aggression Behavior in Mental
Retardation Students). So from this case it can be
concluded that (Counseling Guidance and Social
Competence Teachers) together against variables of
Aggression Behavior Control on Mental Retardation
Students . Based on the table obtained t count equal
to 2658. The distribution table t is sought at = 5%
obtained for t table of 0.67933. Value t arithmetic> t
table (2.658> 0.67933) then Ho rejected. Therefore,
the value of t arithmetic> t table (2.658> 0.67933)
then Ho is rejected, meaning that there is partially
significant influence between Counseling Guidance
and Control of Aggression Behavior in Mental
Retardation Student (Y). So from this case can be
concluded that partially Guidance Counseling
influence on Control of Aggression Behavior in
Mental Retardation Students. Based on the table
obtained t arithmetic amounted to 2.006. The
distribution table t is sought at = 5% obtained for t
table of 0.67933. Value t arithmetic> t table (2.006>
10.67933). Therefore, the value of t arithmetic> t
table (9.716> 1.66105) then Ho is rejected, it means
partially there is significant influence between
Teacher Social Competence (X2) with Control of
Aggression Behavior on Mental Retardation Student
(Y). So from this case can be concluded that
partially Social Teacher Competence influence on
Control of Aggression Behavior on Mental
Retardation Student.
7 DISCUSSION
Aggression is a physical or verbal behavior that is
intended to hurt the object of aggression. Aggression
is caused by biological factors, generation gaps,
environment, errors in the disciplinary process,
instinct, frustration, the role of learning models of
violence, cognitive appraisal, and social
competition. This aggression behavior can be
controlled and reduced through punishment,
catharsis, the introduction of non-aggressive models,
and social skills training, as well as the
empowerment of counseling guidance and the
improvement of teacher social competence.
Measuring intelligence and adaptive behavior
can help to classify the tendency of backwardness
and to predict whether the individual can live
independently. Individuals with moderate mental
retardation are more often found to achieve seilf-
sufficiency and gain a happy life. To achieve their
goals, they need an appropriate and supportive
environment such as education, community, social
environment, family and consistent skills. The
expectation is smaller for individuals who suffer
from severe retardation (profound retardation).
Individuals with profound retardation need great
support and usually can not live independently or at
home in groups.
The study found that they had a smaller life
expectancy. The tendency of invuluary retardation
tends to persist for life. Suppose a child is diagnosed
with severe mental retardation (severe) at the age of
5 years, then he will have the same diagnosis at 21
years of age. This may not be too visible to their
families, where children with underdevelopment
have a similar ability to their peers, but it will appear
that they will be left behind as they age.

Treatment in children with mental retardation is
based on an assessment of the social, educational,
environmental, psychiatric and neurologic needs that
accompany it. The ultimate goal of this handling is
to create a safe place and enable the child to function
and develop his potential optimally. Need to be

and extraordinary education for children tunagrahita.
8 CONCLUSIONS AND
SUGGESTIONS
8.1 Conclusion
The results of the analysis concluded that the
Counseling Guidance and Social Competence
Teachers are able to explain by 87.0% variation of
the dependent variable (Control of Aggression
Behavior in Mental Retardation Students,). Partially
Guidance Counseling on Aggression Behavior
Control on Mental Retardation Students.
Partially there is significant influence between
Teacher Social Competence (X2) with Control of
Aggression Behavior on Mental Retardation Student
(Y). So from this case can be concluded that
partially Social Teacher Competence influence on
Control of Aggression Behavior on Mental
Retardation Student.
8.2 Suggestion
For the School, counseling guidance counseling
program needs to be maintained in order to handle
the Control of Aggression Behavior on Mental
Retardation Students. The more perfect. For
teachers, teacher's social competence needs to be
improved so that the handling of Aggression
Behavior Control on Mental Retardation Students is
better
