Do testosterone and cortisol levels moderate aggressive responses to peer victimization in adolescents? / Izaskun ORUE in Development and Psychopathology, 36-2 (May 2024)

Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Izaskun ORUE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.624-635 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : adolescents  aggressive behavior  cortisol  testosterone  victimization Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Aggressive reactions to peer victimization may be tempered by hormone levels. Grounded on the dualhormone hypothesis (DHH), which proposes that testosterone (T) is associated with aggressive behavior only when cortisol (C) is low, this study assessed whether the combination of T and C moderated adolescents' aggressive responses to peer victimization. The study involved 577 adolescents (50.4% girls, aged 12-17 years), who completed measures of online and offline victimization and perpetration of aggressive behavior in three waves over the course of one year. Moreover, they provided salivary samples to measure T and C levels. Multilevel analyses showed a three-way interaction between T, C, and victimization levels for both online and offline aggressive behaviors. In both cases, the adolescents with high T and high C or low T and low C responded with more aggressive behaviors when victimized or provoked by peers. The T/C ratio was only associated with aggressive behavior in the girls' sample. The results are opposite to those predicted by the DHH, but they are consistent with the findings of other studies that examined aggressive behaviors as reactions to provocations. These results suggest that some combinations of T and C predict higher aggressive reactions to peer victimization.

Testosterone, cortisol, and bullying perpetration in adolescents: The moderating role of peer victimization / Esther CALVETE in Development and Psychopathology, 38-3 (August 2026)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 38-3 (August 2026) . - p.1589-1601 Titre : Testosterone, cortisol, and bullying perpetration in adolescents: The moderating role of peer victimization Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Esther CALVETE, Auteur ; Izaskun ORUE, Auteur ; Nerea CORTAZAR-ENCIONDO, Auteur ; Maite LARRUCEA, Auteur ; Todd D. LITTLE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1589-1601 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Aggression  bullying perpetration  cortisol  random-intercept cross-lagged panel models  testosterone  victimization Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Research on the joint role of testosterone and cortisol in aggression has produced inconsistent results, with limited attention to adolescence, a stage characterized by considerable hormonal changes, and to the distinction between within-and between-person effects. This study examined whether peer victimization moderates testosterone–cortisol associations with bullying perpetration in adolescents. Assessed at three 3-month intervals, participants (471 adolescents, Mage = 14.97, SD = 0.70; 47.1% female) reported bullying perpetration and victimization and provided saliva samples for the analysis of hormones. Random-intercept cross-lagged panel models revealed a three-way interaction (testosterone × cortisol × victimization). Increases in testosterone predicted changes in bullying perpetration when cortisol decreased. These effects were moderated by victimization. When victimization was below average, testosterone increases predicted more bullying perpetration; when it was above average, testosterone increases predicted less perpetration. These findings highlight that peer victimization shapes how testosterone–cortisol interactions influence adolescent aggression, underscoring the interplay of biological and contextual factors in adolescent adaptation.
