TY - JOUR PY - 1991// TI - Behavioral deficiencies of aggressive 8-9 year old boys: an observational study JO - Aggressive behavior A1 - Willner, AH SP - 135 EP - 154 VL - 17 IS - 3 N2 - The nature of aggressive boys' behaviour is examined. Pre-selected matched pairs of aggressive and control boys were observed in a naturalistic setting which facilitated comparison of the way in which recorded behaviours affected their respective peer relationships. A continuous commentary describing the child's interactions with others was recorded simultaneously with the child's speech during school play. These data were transcribed and coded according to activity, social participation, neighbours, and interactions. Individual behavioural items were grouped on the basis of their functional similarity. Marked differences were found between the two groups on certain categories, giving a clear indication of specific deficiencies in the behavioural repertoire of the aggressive boys.
