“…In line with findings on patterns of aggressive behavior displayed in children, we expected that maternal distress and hostile parenting would be associated with physical aggressionand indirect aggression, but that some gender-differentiated parental risk patterns could emerge, particularly for indirectly aggressive boys [19]. These predictions were confirmed.…”

“…Alternatively, parents' behavior may foster the use of indirect aggression only in some children but not in others. Indeed, reference [19] recently found gender-related differences in the emotional and cognitive profiles of indirectly aggressive children and hypothesized that the causes of indirect aggression in girls may be the same as the causes of physical aggression in both boys and girls whereas the causes of boys' indirect aggression may differ. Further research is needed to understand how parents may facilitate the early development of indirect aggression in both sons and daughters.…”

“…1) assumes that maternal emotional distress indirectly influence children's aggressive behaviour through the independent effect of the mediator: hostile child-rearing practices. In line with the hypotheses of reference [19], we assumed that the family processes of indirectly aggressive girls would be similar to those of physically aggressive boys and girls whereas they would differ for indirectly aggressive boys. Clearly, any similarity of parental influences across gender would suggest that the heightened use of specific types of aggressiondespite prevalence differences between genders across childhood development is prompted by a common pattern of parental behaviors.…”

Abstract-Objectives: Examine possible differences in patterns of maternal functioning related to physical and indirect types of aggression one year later and to determine whether patterns were gender-related in children. The hypothesized coercion model assumes that maternal emotional distress indirectly influences children's aggressive behavior through the independent effect of hostile parenting.Method: Longitudinal analyses were conducted on 110 girls and 115 boys in Grades 1 to 3 (mean age = 7.59, sd = 0.91) attending sociodemographically disadvantaged elementary schools. Mothers provided self-reports of emotional well-being and parenting at T1, and teachers reported on child's aggression at T1 and T2.Results: Greater maternal emotional distress predicted teacher-rated sons' and daughters' physically aggressive behavior, as well as daughters' (but not sons') indirect aggression 12 months later, via hostile parenting.Conclusion: Findings contribute toward a better understanding of gender role aspects of physical and indirect aggression and their links with dysfunctional parenting behaviors.

“…Within the delinquent group, proactive aggression was more related to an aggression bias, while reactive aggression related more to a tendency to interpret social ambiguous situations as negative. Earlier studies have demonstrated that especially proactive aggression relates to psychopathology [46][47][48]. Therefore the delinquent group may constitute a more psychiatric group of delinquents in which proactive aggression is especially related to an aggressive interpretation bias.…”

The aim of the present study was to examine whether there is a relation between a negative/aggressive interpretation bias, different types of aggression, and callous-unemotional traits in (delinquent) juveniles. We examined this research question in 2 different studies. The first study examines the relationship between a social negative interpretation bias with different types of aggression and callous-unemotional traits in 42 juvenile delinquent boys from a Juridical Youth Institution Centre and 29 healthy juvenile controls from a local high school in the Netherlands. Results showed that a negative interpretation bias was related to callous-unemotional traits, but specifically within the delinquent group. In the second study we examined this research question in more detail, using 3 different groups and two different measurements of a negative and aggressive interpretation bias (i.e., explicit vs. implicit measurement, respectively). This second study included 88 male participants ranging from 13 to 25 years. Subjects were now recruited from a local high school (healthy controls), an education project (at risk group) and from a Juridical Youth Institution (juvenile group). In the three different groups, there emerged different meaningful correlates. While in the healthy control group there were no significant correlates of a negative interpretation bias, for the two other groups some meaningful correlates were found. Within the at risk group, an aggressive interpretation bias was related to reactive aggression. Within the delinquent group, a negative interpretation bias was significantly related to reactive aggression, while an aggressive interpretation bias was significantly related to proactive aggression. So over the two studies, specifically within the delinquent groups, a negative interpretation bias seems positively related to aggression and callous-unemotional traits. These findings might indicate that the tendency to make negative or aggressive interpretations of potential innocuous situations might form an important mechanism underlying the relation between aggressive acts and the presence of elevated aggression and callous unemotional traits.

“…Diversos estudios realizados en los últimos años han mostrado que un importante número de jóvenes y adolescentes manifiestan conductas agresivas reactivas o proactivas, al tiempo que otros manifiestan conjuntamente ambos patrones de agresión (López-Romero, Romero y González-Iglesias, 2011;Muñoz, Frick, Kimonis y Aucoin, 2008). De este modo, se ha planteado la existencia de grupos diferenciados de jóvenes y adolescentes que responderían de forma exclusiva o predominantemente con conductas agresivas de tipo reactivo o proactivo, por un parte, y otros jóvenes que manifestarían ambos patrones de respuesta en los que precisamente los niveles de agresividad y violencia suelen ser de mayor gravedad (Andreu, 2010;Barker, Tremblay, Nagin, Vitaro y Lacourse, 2006;Crapanzano, Frick y Terranova, 2010).

Resumen: El presente artículo profundiza en el estudio de la impulsividad en una muestra de adolescentes agresivos. El objetivo principal de la investigación fue comprobar si diferentes dimensiones de la impulsividad varían en distintos grupos de adolescentes agresivos (reactivos, proactivos y mixtos) y no agresivos. Se aplicaron dos técnicas de auto-informe, el Cuestionario de Agresión Reactiva y Proactiva (RPAQ) y la Escala de Impulsividad de Barratt (BIS-11), en una muestra de 400 adolescentes de la Comunidad de Madrid con edades comprendidas entre los 12 y los 18 años de edad (edad media = 14.8 y DT = 1.8). Los resultados permitieron observar que los diferentes grupos de adolescentes agresivos presentaron mayores niveles de impulsividad general que los adolescentes no agresivos. Específi-camente, en relación con las distintas dimensiones de la impulsividad, no se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en relación con las dimensiones cognitiva y no planificadora. Sin embargo, la impulsividad conductual fue significativamente superior en los tres grupos de adolescentes reactivos, proactivos y mixtos en comparación con los no agresivos. Se discuten estos resultados señalando la importancia de esta dimensión de la impulsividad como variable discriminativa entre grupos de adolescentes agresivos y no agresivos, en especial, de cara a la intervención psicológica con este tipo de población en entornos escolares. Palabras clave: Adolescentes agresivos reactivos, proactivos y mixtos; impulsividad cognitiva, conductual y no-planificadora. Title:Cognitive, motor and non-planner impulsiveness in reactive, proactive and mixed aggressive adolescents. Abstract: This paper focuses on the study of impulsiveness in a sample of adolescents with different types of aggression. The main research objective was to analyze whether impulsiveness varies between different aggressive adolescents (reactive, proactive and mixed) and non-aggressive ones. Two self-report measures, the Reactive and Proactive Aggression Questionnaire (RPAQ) and the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS-11) were administrated in a sample recollected in Madrid and composed by 400 adolescents between 12 and 18 years of age (mean = 14.8 and SD = 1.8). The results showed that reactive, proactive and mixed aggressive groups presented higher levels of general impulsiveness than nonaggressive adolescents. No significant differences in relation to cognitive and non-planner dimensions of impulsiveness were found. Nevertheless, motor impulsiveness was higher in reactive, proactive and mixed aggressive adolescents in comparison with non-aggressive ones. These results are discussed pointing out the relevance of motor impulsiveness as a discriminative factor of aggression, particularly in the context of psychological intervention with adolescents in scholar settings. Key words: Proactive, reactive and mixed aggressive adolescents; cognitive, motor and non-planner impulsiveness.
