Data were also collected regarding the children's aggressive behavior and peer victimization. Results showed that directing attention to the provocateur when watching scenes of ambiguous physical provocation led to less hostile interpretations and lower anger scores, as compared to when attention was directed to the victim. Additional analyses suggested that this effect was specific to children who were high in physical peer victimization, particularly when they were also high in reactive aggression.

A better understanding of what specific acts of aggression are more common in early childhood could inform assessment and identify specific behavioral targets for early prevention and intervention efforts. The current study advances extant literature by examining teacher reported rates of specific acts of aggression in samples of early childhood youth from United States and Aotearoa New Zealand. Specifically, in the U.S. sample (<i>N</i> = 322, 56.5% male), differences in rates in specific acts of physical and relational aggression (and gender differences) were compared across preschool, kindergarten, and first grade. To further evaluate specific acts of aggression in early childhood, the New Zealand sample (<i>N</i> = 200, 51.5% male) examined age differences in preschoolers (2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-year-olds) on acts of aggression delineated by both form (physical and relational) and function (proactive and reactive) as well as gender differences. Utilizing different measures, findings indicated that while acts of aggression that require more cognitive and verbal skills occurred at high rates among older youth, overall, percentages of physical aggression were consistent across ages/grade in both early childhood samples.

One recent failure to replicate established violent video game effects (Przybylski and Weinstein 2019) has made its data set publicly available, thereby offering a unique opportunity to examine the hypothesis that methodological and statistical problems underlie some replication failures. The present study re-examined the original results from Przybylski and Weinstein (2019) using more appropriate analyses and replicated those results with recalculated, corrected, and more theoretically appropriate variables. The first part examines issues within the original study, including problems with the measure used to assess aggression, statistical control, and the measurement of exposure to video game violence (VGV). The second part created a more standard measure of VGV exposure to test whether the null result stemmed from this measurement issue. Overall, results demonstrate that conceptual misunderstandings of aggression, poor measures regarding both aggression and video game violence exposure, and inappropriate statistical procedures contributed to the initially reported null results.

Distinct latent harm-emotion profiles were identified, which were linked to perinatal and childhood experiences.

Low-harm youth experienced more positive childhood parenting. The dual harm and high aggression groups had more deviant childhood best friends, while the dual harm and moderate aggression groups had lower early life household income.

Three hypotheses were tested in a group of 1145 middle school students (49.6% male; mean age = 11.23 years) using longitudinal data spread out over three waves. The first hypothesis predicted that bullying/peer-aggression victimization would be significantly more prevalent and frequent than bullying/peer-aggression perpetration. The second hypothesis held that a semiparametric sequential process growth mixture modeling (GMM) analysis for two latent variables would identify pure victim and mixed victim–perpetrator trajectories but no pure perpetrator trajectories. The third hypothesis asserted that the trajectory models identified in the GMM analysis would differentially correlate with a change in delinquency, such that accelerating trajectories would be associated with a rise in delinquency and decelerating trajectories with a drop in delinquency. Analyses provided support for all three hypotheses: victimization was significantly more prevalent and frequent than perpetration; there were no pure perpetration trajectories, even after increasing the number of trajectories from 6 to 9; and accelerating trajectories were associated with a significant rise in delinquency from Wave 1 to Wave 3 and decelerating trajectories with a marginally significant decrease in delinquency from Wave 1 to Wave 3.
