RT Book T1 Handbook of child and adolescent aggression A2 Malti, Tina 1974- A2 Rubin, Kenneth H. A2 Vaillancourt, Tracy LA English PP New York London PB The Guilford Press YR 2018 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/1642666947 AB "Aggressive behavior during childhood and adolescence is an important risk factor for later serious and persistent adjustment problems in adulthood, including criminal behavior, school dropout as well as family-related and economic problems. Researchers have thus deployed considerable efforts to uncover what drives individuals to attack and hurt others. Each chapter explores the issue of aggression with an introduction, theoretical considerations, measures and methods, research findings, implications, and future directions"-- AB "Presenting cutting-edge work from leading scholars, this authoritative handbook reviews the breadth of current knowledge on aggression from infancy through adolescence. The volume explores the forms and functions of aggression and the multiple factors that contribute to its emergence, development, and consequences, including genetic and biological influences, temperament, family dynamics, peer relations, and social inequality. It provides up-to-date perspectives on problems such as disruptive and defiant behaviors, bullying (including cyberbullying), social aggression, and youth violence, and examines relations between aggression and normative social-emotional and social-cognitive development. Identifying important implications for practice and policy, contributors describe effective approaches to screening, assessment, intervention, and prevention in family, school, community, and clinical settings."-- NO Includes bibliographical references and index CN BF723.A35 SN 9781462526208 K1 Aggressiveness in children K1 Aggressiveness in adolescence K1 Developmental Psychology K1 Kind : Aggression K1 Heranwachsender : Aggression
