Prospective Family Predictors of Aggression toward Female Partners for At-Risk Young Men.

Capaldi, Deborah M.; Clark, Sara

Developmental Psychology, v34 n6 p1175-88 Nov 1998

For boys at risk for delinquency, assessed their parents' dyadic aggression and unskilled parenting beginning when the boys were in grade four and assessed the boys' aggression to a female partner in young adulthood. Found a relation between the parents' poor parenting practices and the boys' aggression to a partner, mediated by the boys' antisocial behavior in adolescence. (BC)
