本研究的目的是研究儿童早期的关系和身体攻击的轨迹，并评估这些轨迹的同伴预测因素（即同伴拒绝、关系受害和身体受害）。该研究跨越三个时间点（春季T1，秋季T2和春季T3）在幼儿期（N= 300, 44.0%女孩，44.70个月，SD= 4.38, 3.0%非裔美国人/黑人，7.6%亚洲/亚裔美国人/太平洋岛民，1.0%西班牙裔/拉丁裔，11.3%多种族，62.1%白人，15.0%失踪/未知）。在T1收集同伴受害观察和教师同伴拒绝报告，在各时间点收集教师攻击报告。分段潜在增长模型的结果表明，当儿童进入新教室时，两种形式的攻击都从T1下降到T2，而当他们留在教室时，两种形式的攻击都从T2增加到T3。从T2到T3阶段，身体攻击行为的增加仅对男孩有显著意义。同伴排斥是T1到T2的截距和斜率的预测因子，身体伤害是T1到T2的身体攻击截距和斜率的预测因子。在这些同伴风险变量上得分高的孩子，最初的攻击性水平更高，随后从T1到T2的攻击性下降幅度更大。研究结果强调了研究儿童早期攻击行为的增量变化的重要性，并表明经历过负面同伴待遇的儿童随着时间的推移，攻击行为的波动更大。
The goal of the current study was to examine trajectories of relational and physical aggression in early childhood and evaluate peer predictors of these trajectories (i.e., peer rejection, relational victimization, and physical victimization). The study spanned three‐time points (T1 in the spring, T2 in the fall, and T3 in the spring) in early childhood (N= 300; 44.0% girls;Mage= 44.70 months,SD= 4.38; 3.0% African American/Black, 7.6% Asian/Asian American/Pacific Islander, 1.0% Hispanic/Latinx, 11.3% multiracial, 62.1% White, and 15.0% missing/unknown). Observations of peer victimization and teacher report of peer rejection were collected at T1, and teacher report of aggression was collected at all time points. Results from piecewise latent growth models demonstrated that both forms of aggression decreased from T1 to T2 as children entered a new classroom and increased from T2 to T3 as they remained in that classroom. The increase in physical aggression from T2 to T3 was only significant for boys. Peer rejection at T1 emerged as a predictor of both intercepts and slopes from T1 to T2, and physical victimization predicted the physical aggression intercept and physical aggression slope from T1 to T2. Children high on these peer risk variables had higher initial levels of aggression, followed by a greater decrease in aggression from T1 to T2. Results underscore the importance of studying incremental change in aggression in early childhood and suggest that children who experience negative peer treatment have greater fluctuations in aggression over time.
