Relational Aggression, Gender, and Peer Acceptance: Invariance across Culture, Stability over Time, and Concordance among Informants.
Tomada, Giovanna; Schneider, Barry H.
Developmental Psychology, v33 n4 p601-09 Jul 1997
Replicated and extended American research on overt and relational aggression with Italian children. Found that peer and teacher nominations for aggression and prosocial behavior were highly stable, although with very poor concordance between them. Peer nominations for overt and relational aggression were linked to peer rejection. Boys' scores were higher than girls' in both overt and relational aggression. (Author/KB)
