Aronson speaks both from personal experience and with the support of empirical research in assessing the root cause of school violence. He points out that we have created a school system in which bullying, rejection, and social ostracism are not only ignored but also (i) $\(\qquad\)$ The hierarchy of the high-school scene and the prevalence of cliques foster the in-group minority/out-group majority mentality, and create an atmosphere that is not just
(ii) $\(\qquad\)$ to learning, but actually is often the source of severe teenage trauma. Aronson (iii) $\(\qquad\)$ that by addressing these root causes preemptively and intervening in the emotional education of the nation's youth, school violence can be curbed and the high-school experience can be improved.
