Download or read book Trajectories of Physical Aggression from Toddlerhood to Middle Childhood written by Willis F. Overton and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 2004-12-10 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Monograph addresses three questions: a) Can distinct trajectories of physical aggression be identified in children from 24 months to third grade? b) Do child and family characteristics and child care experiences predict membership in the trajectory groups? c) Do trajectory groups differ in their levels of academic and social functioning in third grade? Using a person-centered approach and data from the NICHD Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development, five aggression trajectories were identified: very low, low, moderate-steeply declining, moderate-stable, and high-stable. Higher levels of family resources and more sensitive parenting predicted low levels of aggression. Higher sociodemographic risk and less involved parenting predicted higher aggression. Child care experiences were not related systematically to aggression trajectories. In third grade, children on the higher and more stable aggression trajectories were performing more poorly socially and academically. However, aggression that was evident only in the preschool period was not associated with problematic functioning. Children on the two higher aggression trajectories also differed from one another in the type and severity of their problems in third grade.

Download or read book Handbook of Child and Adolescent Aggression written by Tina Malti and published by Guilford Publications. This book was released on 2018-08-31 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting cutting-edge work from leading scholars, this authoritative handbook reviews the breadth of current knowledge on aggression from infancy through adolescence. The volume explores the forms and functions of aggression and the multiple factors that contribute to its emergence, development, and consequences, including genetic and biological influences, temperament, family dynamics, peer relations, and social inequality. It provides up-to-date perspectives on problems such as disruptive and defiant behaviors, bullying (including cyberbullying), social aggression, and youth violence, and examines relations between aggression and normative social–emotional and social-cognitive development. It also discusses the opposite end of the spectrum, including kindness and prosocial behaviors. Identifying important implications for practice and policy, contributors describe effective approaches to screening, assessment, and intervention in family, school, community, and clinical settings.

This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation examined developmental trajectories of physical aggression in low-income African American and Hispanic preschoolers as they transitioned to primary school. Three developmental trajectories were expected to be identified in the data: a low physical aggression group, a group that begins higher in physical aggression that the low group but declines to near zero levels by Wave 4, and a group high in physical aggression across all four time points. More boys and African American children were expected to be classified into the high physical aggression group whereas children with higher inhibitory control competency were expected to be classified into the low physical aggression group. Additionally, cumulative risk was measured at all four time points and more cumulative risk was expected to be characteristic of the high physical aggression group. Data from the Dallas Preschool Readiness Project (DPReP), a longitudinal study of 407 low-income African American and Hispanic children and families, were used to estimate developmental trajectories across four waves beginning when the children were 21⁄2 years of age. Additional waves were included when children were 31⁄2, in kindergarten, and in first grade. Using group-based trajectory modeling, a model consisting of four trajectories of physical aggression was selected. The model identified a no physical aggression group (18%), a low declining group (41%), a high declining group (32%), and a high chronic group (9%). The groups did not differ by child gender but more Hispanic children were classified into the no physical aggression and low declining groups while more African American children were classified into high declining and high chronic groups. To gain a better understanding of the trajectories, cumulative risk and inhibitory control were modeled as predictors of physical aggression group membership but in different ways. Cumulative risk was modeled as a time-varying covariate of physical aggression and showed to distinguish the low declining and no physical aggression groups from high chronic and high declining physical aggression groups. Higher levels of cumulative risk characterized the high chronic physical aggression group and lower cumulative risk characterized the no and low declining physical aggression groups. Inhibitory control at Wave 2 when children were 31⁄2 distinguished the no physical aggression from the low declining and high chronic groups. No differences related to cumulative risk or inhibitory control were found between the high chronic and high declining groups. This study extends extant research on the developmental course of physical aggression at these early ages by examining individual differences related to variations in risk and inhibitory control within a high-risk sample of ethnic minority children. Most of the prior research investigating physical aggression in young children has included predominantly middle-income, Caucasian samples. The current study addressed the unanswered question of whether the developmental course of physical aggression in very young, low-income, African American and Hispanic children is similar to that found in Caucasian-majority samples in prior studies. The findings reported here show substantial within-group variability in physical aggression in low-income African American and Hispanic children. The current study findings appear to indicate consistency with prior research. That is, distinct high chronic, high declining, low declining and no physical aggression groups were identified from the analysis, with significant between group differences between the extreme groups. Inconsistencies with past research are discussed at length.

This book was released on 2014-03-18 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After decades of neglect, researchers have begun to focus attention on the development and outcomes of girlhood aggression. This comprehensive volume provides an account of some of the pioneering research in the field. Its central aims are to highlight current understanding, identify key components for preventing and treating the complex array of problems experienced by aggressive girls, and raise new questions for future research. The perspectives presented by the authors highlight the diverse factors that moderate the emergence of aggression while offering insight into how to target that aggression at various stages of development. The problem is presented as a continuum from normative forms of behavior to extreme and serious attacks. The importance of relationships--particularly family relationships--is a theme that permeates the entire volume. A growing body of research indicates that aggression in girls is a predictor of long-term psychological, social, academic, health, and intergenerational problems. The knowledge provided by the authors has tremendous potential to inform practice with troubled girls, their families, and support systems.
