“…In contrast, among women, any act of violence-regardless of the impact on the victim-may be viewed as essentially the same. Th is interpretation is consistent with the results of Pakaslahti and Keltikangas-Jarvinen (1997). Th ese authors reported that-among a sample of adolescents-when presented with descriptors of aggressive behaviors, boys were more likely than girls to legitimize the aggression by focusing on factors that might "excuse" the aggression.…”

Th e past decade has seen an increase in interest relating to the correlates and determinants of attitudes about nonhuman animals, especially attitudes about the use or abuse of animals. However, little research has explicitly addressed individual diff erences in attitudes about the neglect of animals. Th e current study employs a factor-analytic approach to explore (a) whether attitudes about animal neglect can be reliably diff erentiated from attitudes about animal abuse and (b) whether the relationship between attitudes about animal neglect and animal abuse diff ers as a function of gender. Results indicated that attitudes about abuse and neglect can be reliably diff erentiated among both men and women. However, the structure of these attitudes appears to diff er substantially by sex. Th is paper discusses theoretical and practical implications of these results.

“…This study is part of a larger follow-up project investigating the development of social decision-making strategies, moral reasoning, and social behaviour in adolescents (see, e.g., Keltikangas-Ja È rvinen & Kangas, 1988;Lindeman et al, 1997;Pakaslahti & Keltikangas-Ja È rvinen, 1996;Pakaslahti & Keltikangas-Ja È rvinen, 1998).…”

“…It has previously been shown that peer nominations result in three factors: aggressive behaviour, prosocial behaviour and submissiveness (Pakaslahti & Keltikangas-Ja È rvinen, 1996). The unweighted least squares factor analysis with oblique rotation (direct oblimin) conducted here also produced three factors which were possible to name identically with the previous factors.…”

“…Aggressive-accepted students saw themselves as sociable, and sociable-rejected ones perceived themselves as aggressive. Thus, social feedback was likely to modify their self-concept, and produced an effect such that the strategies were not in line with the behaviour (see Table 2; for details, see Pakaslahti and Keltikangas-Järvinen, 1997).…”

Objectives In a seven-year follow-up study, the author and colleagues examined the development of social skills from childhood to late adolescence, with a particular focus on aggressive behaviour. This paper presents a review of the most important findings of the project. Results and conclusions Social strategies explained aggressive behaviour, and changes of strategies predicted changes of behaviour. Aggressive behaviour was, however, very stable, and spontaneous change from an aggressive child to a sociable adolescent was not observed. This emphasizes an importance of early prevention of aggression. Disagreement between the children's and their parents' problem-solving strategies was apparent, suggesting that interventions to reduce a
