Abstract
This chapter describes the methods used for coding participants’ responses to two items on the Personal and Institutional Rights to Aggression and Peace Survey: (a) “I believe world peace can be achieved” and (b) “The best way to achieve world peace is….” First, this chapter describes the two different research approaches used to develop the manual. Next, Albert Bandura’s theory of moral disengagement is explained. We then explain the two systems of the achieving peace coding manual in detail. This chapter concludes with an explanation of how the responses were analyzed and an overview of the subsequent chapters’ structure.
