Journal ArticleDOI
Abuse in childhood and psychopathic traits in a sample of violent offenders.
TL;DR: Emotional abuse resulted in a positive predictor of PCL-R total scores and its Interpersonal-Affective and Lifestyle-Antisocial factors, which suggests that emotional abuse in childhood, in combination with neurobiological and temperamental vulnerabilities, can foster the development of psychopathic traits.

Social-information-processing factors in reactive and proactive aggression in children's peer groups
Kenneth A. Dodge,John D. Coie +1 more
TL;DR: Three studies supported the hypothesis that attributional biases and deficits are related to reactive aggression but not to proactive aggression, which was hypothesized to occur as a function of hostile attributional bias and intention-cue detection deficits.
