Description
Current literature focuses primarily on victims of peer aggression and their increased risk for later maladjustment. Relatively little is known about the long-term outcomes for peer aggressors. In this symposium, we highlight recent research that explores longitudinal correlates of peer aggression for perpetrators. The first two papers in this symposium focus on the outcomes for the peer aggressors themselves, across adolescence (presented by Farrell) and in adulthood (presented by Turunen). The third paper focuses on the relationships between peer aggressors and their romantic partner (presented by Dantchev and Lee) The fourth paper examines consequences of peer aggression for the next generation (presented by Wiertsema). The insights of this symposium are based on data from three countries and about 10,000 individuals and challenges the impression current literature gives that only victims are at risk for later maladjustment.
