Abstract
In this study, cortical thickness and fractional anisotropy values of white matter tracts were assessed in 35 15-year-old adolescents while their aggressive behavior was assessed when they were aged 9, 11, and 13 years. We found proactive and reactive aggression to be differentially associated with grey and white matter alterations.
