“…In our study if the violence is occurring within family, mostly the male children are affected and express aggression after physical battering and abuses of parents. This study also showed that female children were affected in 40.7% cases compared to other studies [21][22][23].…”

Objectives: To determine the association of family structure and family environment with aggressive behavior of children (6-8years) in a rural community of Gadap town, Karachi, Pakistan Subjects and Methods: This is a questionnaire based cross sectional survey to determine the association of family structure and environment with aggressive behavior of children (6-8years). Aggressive behaviour is defined as sudden, explosive outbursts of anger and has been reported as a clinical problem in approximately 23% -40% of children in some communities. The information was collected by interviewing parents regarding their family structure, family environment and aggressive behavior of children in school and at home. This quantitative assessment was made on a validated Performa. The data was analyzed on SPSS windows version 16. Results:Total numbers of respondents were 384. The impact of aggressive behavior in children were anger 32.8%, violence 36.5%, lack of tolerance for minor disputes 32.3%, respectively. The reliability statistics table had the actual value for Cronbach's alpha at 89.1%. The association of aggressive behavior in children has been rooted in the family size in 34.4%, family type 27.6%, family environment 23.7% and intimate partner violence in 30.2%. Conclusion:One third of school children had aggressive behaviour directly related to family size and family environment in a rural area. The significant major risk factors were age, family size 34.4%, family type 27.6%, family environment 23.7% and intimate partner violence in 30.2%.

“…Enfin, en ce qui a trait aux facteurs de risque familiaux distaux, nous n'avons pas observé que les filles indirectement agressives provenaient de milieux plus défavorisés que les filles comparativement aux filles non agressives (Bonica et al, 2003). Il est possible que notre échantillon, essentiellement recruté dans des écoles de quartiers défavorisés, ait amoindri ces différences.…”

“…Si, par leur nature, les conduites d'agression indirecte passent souvent inaperçues, les effets de ce mode d'agression peuvent être percutants. Pour plusieurs victimes, en effet, la souffrance et l'humiliation engendrées par l'agression indirecte ne sont pas épisodiques et peuvent persister au fil des années : la victime n'a pas seulement à composer avec des ragots et des mensonges, mais aussi avec l'isolement, la solitude et le rejet (Underwood, 2003 (Bonica et al, 2003), alors que tantôt aucun lien significatif n'est constaté entre ces deux variables (Doyle et al, 2004). Ces résultats contradictoires soulignent, à l'évidence, la nécessité de poursuivre les recherches sur les facteurs de risque sociaux, familiaux et comportementaux liés aux conduites d'agression indirecte des filles.…”

Les résultats de la présente étude, menée auprès de 191 filles d’âge scolaire primaire et de leurs familles accréditent l’hypothèse voulant que le développement des filles qui manifestent fréquemment des conduites agressives indirectes soit qualitativement différent de celui des filles non agressives, mais analogue à celui des filles directement agressives. Les résultats montrent que les filles manifestant des conduites agressives indirectes éprouvent significativement plus de difficultés sociales et de problèmes de comportements intériorisés et extériorisés que les filles non agressives. Leurs relations parentales sont également davantage détériorées. Toutefois, elles se distinguent des filles qui utilisent à la fois des conduites agressives directes et indirectes par la manifestation moindre de difficultés sociales et comportementales. Nos résultats indiquent qu’il importe de tenir compte de la présence des conduites agressives indirectes dans le dépistage et le développement des conduites mésadaptées chez les filles.This study examined the unique contribution of indirect aggression related to concurrent behaviour, social and family adjustment problems. A total of 191, 5th and 6th primary school girls (mean age 12.0 years) and their families participated. Results supported the hypothesis that the adjustment of indirectly aggressive girls is different than that of nonaggressive peers, but rather, are similar to that of overtly aggressive girls. No significant differences between the two groups were found. Indirectly aggressive girls showed significantly more internalizing and externalizing behaviour problems than their nonaggressive peers. These girls also experienced more social problems and parents reported less contentment regarding the relationship with their daughter. Our findings justify the need to consider indirect aggression as an important marker of risk in the prediction and development of girls’ maladjustment

“…관계적 공격성은 또 래 관계나 사회적 소속감을 손상시키거나 조종하는 것에 의하여 다른 사람에게 의도적인 해를 입히는 것으로 정 의된다 (Crick & Grotpeter, 1995). 초기 공격성 연구는 외현적 공격성에 집중되어 남성이 여성보다 공격적이라 는 견해가 일반화되었지만, 이후에 다른 유형의 공격성 즉 관계적 공격성을 함께 비교한 연구에서는 여성이 남 성보다 관계적 공격성 수준이 높은 것으로 나타났다 (Bonica et al, 2003;Crick & Grotpeter, 1995). 이러 한 공격성 연구의 흐름 속에서 Little et al(2003) Bonica et al, 2003;Ostrov et al, 2004).…”

This study examined the effects of children's negative emotionality, emotional regulation, and maternal parenting behaviors on their relational and overt aggression. The participants were 355 children(174 boys, 181 girls; aged 4-5 years old) and their mothers. The teachers completed rating scales to measure the children's aggression and emotion regulation. The children's negative emotionality and maternal parenting behaviors were assessed by a mother reported questionnaire. The collected data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, correlations, and hierarchical multiple regressions. Results showed that Children's negative emotionality was positively related to their relational and overt aggression. Children's emotional regulation had a negative relation to their relational and overt aggression. Mother's limit-setting and rejection-neglect was significantly related to children's relational aggression, whereas mother's warmth-encouragement and rejection-neglect was negatively related to children's overt aggression. Hierarchical regression analysis indicated that the interaction of children's negative emotionality and mother's overprotection-permission predicted children's overt aggression. Children's negative emotionality, whose mothers demonstrated middle and high level of overprotection-permission, was associated significantly with overt aggression. In addition, the association between mother's parenting behaviors and children's aggressions were mediated by their emotion regulation. The findings point to similarities and differences between relational and overt aggression in relation to children's negative emotionality, emotional regulation and maternal parenting behaviors.
