Intercommunity Differences in Aggression among Zapotec Children.
Fry, Douglas P.
Child Development, v59 n4 p1008-19 Aug 1988
Compares patterns of play and serious aggression in three- to eight-year-old children of two neighboring Zapotec Indian communities that have different levels of adult violence. Results suggest that community differences in violence levels are perpetuated as Zapotec children learn community-appropriate patterns to express aggression and continue to express those patterns as adults.
