Emotional reactivity and the association between psychopathy-linked narcissism and aggression in detained adolescent boys / Luna C. MUÑOZ CENTIFANTI in Development and Psychopathology, 25-2 (May 2013)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 25-2 (May 2013) . - p.473-485 Titre : Emotional reactivity and the association between psychopathy-linked narcissism and aggression in detained adolescent boys Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Luna C.

AUCOIN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.473-485 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Different patterns of emotional reactivity characterize proactive and reactive functions of aggressive behavior, and theory also suggests a link of both types with narcissism. How people with narcissistic traits respond emotionally to competitive scenarios could influence their aggressiveness. Participants were 85 adolescent boys from a detention center. Several indices of emotional functioning were assessed, including attentional bias to negative emotional stimuli and psychophysiological responding. In addition, we included self-report and laboratory measures of aggression and measures of psychopathy-linked narcissism, callous–unemotional traits, and impulsivity. Psychopathy-linked narcissism was uniquely related to unprovoked aggression (i.e., proactive aggression) and to heightened attention to pictures depicting others’ distress. Compared with those scoring low on narcissism, those high on narcissism, who were the least physiologically reactive group, evinced greater proactive aggression, whereas those showing a pattern of coactivation (i.e., sympathetic and parasympathetic autonomic reactivity) evinced greater reactive aggression. Results are consistent with descriptions of narcissistic individuals as being hypervigilant to negative cues and exhibiting poor emotion regulation. These characteristics may lead to aggressive and violent behavior aimed at maintaining dominance over others.

Profiles of the forms and functions of self-reported aggression in three adolescent samples / Monica A. MARSEE in Development and Psychopathology, 26-3 (August 2014)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 26-3 (August 2014) . - p.705-720 Titre : Profiles of the forms and functions of self-reported aggression in three adolescent samples Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Monica A. MARSEE, Auteur ; Paul J. FRICK, Auteur ; Christopher T. BARRY, Auteur ; Eva R. KIMONIS, Auteur ; Luna C. MUÑOZ CENTIFANTI, Auteur ; Katherine J. AUCOIN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.705-720 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In the current study, we addressed several issues related to the forms (physical and relational) and functions (reactive and proactive) of aggression in community (n = 307), voluntary residential (n = 1,917), and involuntarily detained (n = 659) adolescents (ages 11–19 years). Across samples, boys self-reported more physical aggression and girls reported more relational aggression, with the exception of higher levels of both forms of aggression in detained girls. Further, few boys showed high rates of relational aggression without also showing high rates of physical aggression. In contrast, it was not uncommon for girls to show high rates of relational aggression alone, and these girls tended to also have high levels of problem behavior (e.g., delinquency) and mental health problems (e.g., emotional dysregulation and callous–unemotional traits). Finally, for physical aggression in both boys and girls, and for relational aggression in girls, there was a clear pattern of aggressive behavior that emerged from cluster analyses across samples. Two aggression clusters emerged, with one group showing moderately high reactive aggression and a second group showing both high reactive and high proactive aggression (combined group). On measures of severity (e.g., self-reported delinquency and arrests) and etiologically important variables (e.g., emotional regulation and callous–unemotional traits), the reactive aggression group was more severe than a nonaggressive cluster but less severe than the combined aggressive cluster.
