contents Aggression and Pro-Sociability: Risk and Protective Dynamics in Popularity and Bullying Processes Tatiane de Oliveira Dias Carolina Lisboa Silvia Helena Koller Diogo DeSousa Psicología pro schools bullying Aggression popularity Previous research has shown that positive psychological characteristics can moderate the relationship between aggression and developmental outcomes. This study assessed whether pro-sociability could moderate the association between aggression and victimization, and aggression and popularity. A convenience sample of 253 Brazilian children of low socioeconomic status (M age = 11.82, SD = 1.41) participated in the study. Structural equation modeling showed that the interaction between aggression and pro-social behaviors did not decrease children's chances of being victimized and did not alter the association between aggression and popularity. Aggression seemed to be a predictor of bullying and pro-sociability, of popularity. These results contradict findings from previous studies that showed an association between aggression and positive behaviors such as pro-sociability. More studies are necessary to highlight cultural and contextual differences, comparing these results to those of other Latin American samples. 2011 artículo científico 0717-0297 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=96720974004 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=967 Psykhe application/pdf Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile Psykhe (Chile) Num.2 Vol.20
