TY - JOUR PY - 1997// TI - Observed and Reported Psychological and Physical Aggression in Young, At-Risk Couples JO - Social Development A1 - Capaldi, Deborah M. A1 - Crosby, Lynn SP - 184 EP - 206 VL - 6 IS - 2 N2 - The occurrence of observed and reported physical and psychological aggression was examined for young, at-risk mostly unmarried couples using reports from both partners and observational data. It was predicted that males higher in antisocial behavior would be more likely to have an antisocial partner and that antisocial behavior would predict aggression toward the partner. The prevalence of reported physical aggression was comparable to that found for prior studies and was generally higher for the young women than the young men. Observed aggression was significantly associated with reported aggression, and psychological aggression was associated with physical aggression. Assortative partnering by antisocial behavior was found. The young man's aggression toward his partner was predicted particularly by his antisocial behavior, whereas that of the young woman was predicted by depressive symptoms and low self-esteem. Relationship satisfaction was associated with the occurrence of psychological aggression but not of physical aggression. (Abstract Adapted from Source: Social Development, 1997.
