“…In light of the fact that adults judge the same behavior as either aggressive or not depending on the sex of the rater (Henry & Piercy, 1984; Pellegrini, 2011) and that multi-informant studies reduce bias in data (Tackett & Ostrov, 2010), future studies should include both mothers and fathers rating the behavior of their children. An additional advantage of this approach is that several studies have emphasized the value of multi-informant approaches (Ostrov, Ries, Stauffacher, Godleski, & Mullins, 2008; Tackett, Waldman, & Lahey, 2009).…”

Abstract. Understanding the genetic influence on aggressive behavior in children is one way to understand pathways to the development of aggression in adults. While aggression is likely under some environmental influence, it is also likely under some genetic influence. Overt aggression associates with a variety of genes including dopaminergic and serotonergic genes. Dopaminergic and serotonergic genes are known to be associated with overt aggression. However, little is known regarding the genetic pathways associated with relational aggression. Detecting genetic associates of relational aggression is important to eventually understand pathways to socially aggressive behaviors in children. Therefore, we attempted to determine if relational aggression was also associated with dopaminergic and serotonergic genes. We invited the parents of 327 children to complete a modified version of the MacArthur Health and Behavior Questionnaire (HBQ-P), which has a subscale for relational aggression. We used logistic regression models that predicted relational aggression after controlling for covariates. One genetic predictor was added at a time until there was no model improvement. The covariates were overt aggression scores obtained from the HBQ-P and age. The final (best) model included as a significant predictor of relational aggression one single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) on SLC6A3 (rs2617605) and the covariates.

Drawing from a previous study of African American women's perception of factors such as feeling intimidated, desired qualities, white women, evolutionary needs) that hindered their developing intimate relationships with professional African American men, this study explores further these themes with professional African American men's regarding their perception of African American men's dating behaviors.
