“…The YASB is composed of 14 statements rated on a scale from 1 (never) to 5 (always) pertaining to participants' use of aggression in social situations. The authors did not report internal consistency or test-retest reliability for this scale (Crothers et al, 2009). However, the current research found the YASB to have a Cronbach's alpha of .79.…”

“…Young adults have been found to engage in socially aggressive behaviors like any other age group, and several studies have confirmed the presence of cyberbullying within this population (Crothers, Schreiber, Field, & Kolbert, 2009;Kowalski et al, 2014;Roland, 2013;Schenk & Fremouw, 2012). Even so, there continues to be a noticeable gap in cyberbullying research, specifically relating to the young adult population.…”

JOURNAL PURPOSE STATEMENTThe twofold purpose of the Psi Chi Journal of Psychological Research is to foster and reward the scholarly efforts of psychology students as well as to provide them with a valuable learning T he debate over antigay perspectives has become increasingly divisive in today's society, and many questions have arisen regarding the underlying factors that lead to the development of negative attitudes toward gay people. Previous research has found that religion can serve as a significant predictor of attitudes toward lesbians and gay men (Adamczyk & Pitt, 2009; Rowatt, LaBouff, Johnson, Froese, & Tsang, 2009; Whitley, 2009). Allport and Ross (1967) described the grand paradox of religion, stating that the inner experience of religion both makes for prejudice as well as unmakes prejudice (p. 435). On the one hand, prejudice and bigotry increase because religious groups have a limited composition in terms of class and ethnic membership and pressure toward conformity and involvement in intergroup competition. On the other hand, many religious texts such as those in Judaism and Christianity emphasize teachings of equality, brotherhood, and compassion (Tsang & Rowatt, 2007). Such contradictory messages from religion render the issue of attitudes toward lesbians and gay men more complex. The present study aimed to examine the effects of exposure to religious messages on self-reported attitudes ...

“…Archer and Coyne [29] describe three different terms -indirect aggression, relational aggression, and social aggression -that some researchers have considered distinct behaviors, while others believe that the terms are synonymous. Recent evidence has suggested, however, that relational and social aggression are separate and distinct constructs and this paper will adopt that conclusion [30,31].…”

“…As a result, indirect forms of aggression become more common. What is more, girls' earlier maturation in the area of social and verbal skills allows them to make use of indirect forms of aggression earlier than boys (Crothers et al, 2009). …”

“…However, other forms of aggression that receive lesser attention appear to be widespread and of critical importance. Socially oriented aggression, sometimes defined as relational aggression or indirect aggression (Björkqvist et al, 2001), involves either covert or overt actions that victimize another person (Crothers, Schreiber, Field, & Kolbert, 2009;Gomes, 2007;Leenars & Rinaldi, 2010). These acts could include a range of behaviors such as gossiping, social isolation, spreading rumors, composing and delivering hurtful messages, or cold glances directed at peers.…”
