Children's Experiences of Peer-Peer Aggression: Capturing the Story through Narratives

The current study examined the influence of 7- to 13-year-olds’ social cognition on bully/victim status and their ability to talk about traditional and cyber-based interpersonal conflicts. Socio-cognitive abilities, while unrelated to bully/victim status via questionnaire, predicted children’s references to self/others’ perspectives and aggressive acts during narrative accounts of peer-peer aggression.
