Abstract

The objective of the current study was to test whether etiologies differ for relational and physical aggression in undergraduates. Results indicated that the three parental relational aggression measures were the best predictors for participants’ relational aggression and did not predict physical aggression. Gender differences emerged only in physical aggression.
