Abstract
Aim of the study was to validate a new experimental paradigm for assessing proactive aggression in adolescence and young adulthood. Child rule-breaking and aggressive behavior recorded by caregivers was shown to be a significant predictor of (proactive) aggressive behavior in the paradigm, whereas self-reported proactive aggression by adolescents was unrelated.
