Download or read book The Cambridge Handbook of Violent Behavior and Aggression written by Daniel J. Flannery and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-09-03 with total page 1445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a team of leading experts comes a comprehensive, multidisciplinary examination of the most current research including the complex issue of violence and violent behavior. The handbook examines a range of theoretical, policy, and research issues and provides a comprehensive overview of aggressive and violent behavior. The breadth of coverage is impressive, ranging from research on biological factors related to violence and behavior-genetics to research on terrrorism and the impact of violence in different cultures. The authors examine violence from international cross-cultural perspectives, with chapters that examine both quantitative and qualitative research. They also look at violence at multiple levels: individual, family, neighborhood, cultural, and across multiple perspectives and systems, including treatment, justice, education, and public health.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This secondary analysis of survey data from a voluntary sample of 11,561 grade 3-8 students examines the prevalence and distribution of aggression, victimization, and approval of aggression, both overt (verbally and physically aggressive behavior intended to threaten or harm) and relational (behavior intended to harm someone's relationships with others). The report presents both descriptive statistics and the results of hierarchical linear modeling (all results are reported at the 0.05 level of statistical significance). The following are key findings: (1) On the Normative Beliefs about Aggression Survey, 1-12 percent of girls and 4-20 percent of boys in grades 3-5 reported that retaliation was "sort of OK" to "perfectly OK;" (2) For the study sample, school factors were associated with 1-7 percent of the variation in student survey scores, and student characteristics, such as gender and grade level, were associated with 93-99 percent of the variation; (3) On the Normative Beliefs about Aggression Survey, boys approved of aggression more than girls did both in general social situations and in situations involving retaliation; (4) On the Peer Experiences Questionnaire, students in grades 7 and 8 reported higher agreement with beliefs that endorsed aggression than did students in grade 3 when asked whether bullying "pays off," whether a student who gets bullied "deserves it," and whether a student should intervene if others are fighting; (5) For overt victimization, 12-61 percent of girls and 17-60 percent of boys reported being victimized at least once during the last 30 days, and 2-10 percent of girls and 3-14 percent of boys reported being victimized once or more a week, with the percentage varying by the behavior; (6) For relational victimization, 41-48 percent of girls and 31-42 percent of boys reported exposure during the last 30 days, and 4-6 percent of girls and boys reported exposure once or more a week, depending on the behavior; (7) For overt aggression, 3-37 percent of girls and 7-44 percent of boys reported perpetrating such acts during the last 30 days, and 0.4-2 percent of girls and 1-5 percent of boys reported perpetrating such acts once or more a week, depending on the behavior; (8) For relational aggression, 21-28 percent of girls and 20-24 percent of boys reported perpetrating such acts during the last 30 days, and 0.8-1 percent of girls and 1-2 percent of boys reported perpetrating such acts once or more a week, depending on the behavior; (9) Boys reported more overt victimization, overt aggression, and relational aggression toward other students than did girls; (10) No significant differences between girls and boys were found in the frequency of relational victimization; and (11) Differences between overt and relational aggression were also associated with grade level. Appendices include: (1) Study sample and methods; (2) Item responses for the total sample and by gender for the Normative Beliefs about Aggression Survey; (3) Item responses for the total sample and by gender for the Peer Experiences Questionnaire; (4) Results of hierarchical linear modeling of gender and grade-level differences associated with survey scale tables; and (5) Sensitivity analyses for imputed data.

Download or read book Girls at Puberty written by J. Brooks-Gunn and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publication of this volume at this time appears particularly auspi cious. Biological, psychological, and social change is greater during the pubertal years than at any other period since infancy. While the past two decades have witnessed a virtual explosion of productive research on the first years of life, until recently research on adolescence, and particularly on puberty and early adolescence, has lagged substantially behind. This book provides encouraging evidence that things are changing for the better. Considered separately, the individual chapters in this book include important contributions to our growing knowledge of the biological mechanisms involved in pubertal onset and subsequent changes, as well as of the psychological and social aspects of these changes, both as con sequences and determinants. In this regard, the book clearly benefits from the breadth of disciplines represented by the contributors, includ ing developmental endocrinology, adolescent medicine, pediatrics, psy chology, and sociology, among others.

Download or read book Protecting Children from Violence written by James Michael Lampinen and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2010-09-13 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing an evidence-based understanding of the causes and consequences of violence against children, experts in the field examine the best practices used to help protect children from violence. Various types of violence are reviewed including physical and sexual abuse, (cyber-)bullying, human trafficking, online predators, abductions, and war. In addition, it reviews the various perpetrators of such violence including parents and relatives, strangers, other children, and societal institutions. The possible outcomes of such violence including physical injuries, death, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorders, and damage to the social fabric of the local community are also explored. To enhance accessibility, each contributor addresses common themes: Opening case studies dramatically illustrate the human cost of abuse and neglect Empirically driven estimates of the scope of problem to better understand who is at risk and why Empirically driven testing of interventions to maximize effectiveness of programs How current research compares to public perception and the impact on public policy The worldwide problem of violence against children Evidence-based recommendations for reducing violence against children. The book opens with a review of the history of the problem, the methodological approaches used to study it, and current "best practice" prevention strategies. The methods used to identify peer victims are then explored. Next child eyewitness memory is examined including the most effective techniques for maximizing the retrieval of information. This is followed by the research on missing and abducted children including the effectiveness of recovery programs such as supermarket campaigns and forensic age profiles. Next how the Internet is used in the victimization of children is explored including tips to help protect children online. Public attitudes toward sex offender registration laws are then reviewed followed by vulnerabilities that include genetic, neuropsychological, temperamental, cognitive, perceptual and social factors. International perspectives on protecting children from violence and global health inequities are then addressed. The book concludes with recommendations for future research. Contributors are noted scholars from a broad range of disciplines. As such, the book appeals to researchers and advanced students in developmental, counseling, clinical, cognitive, evolutionary, and social psychology, as well as sociology, social work, criminal justice, education, and law enforcement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While several recent popular books address the topic of girls' "meanness" to one another, this volume offers the first balanced, scholarly analysis of scientific knowledge in this area.
