2009 — CU traits and forms of aggression

Research question

Do CU traits differentiate forms and combinations of aggressive behavior?

Finding

The study reported that CU traits could designate important subgroups among aggressive children across bullying/victimization and proactive/reactive aggression patterns.

Why it matters

This is an early node in the heterogeneity branch: outward aggression is not treated as a single homogeneous phenomenon.

Inference boundary

Subgroup differentiation does not establish that CU traits cause the aggressive patterns.
