Childhood aggression is a known risk factor for adolescent substance use; however, aggression is a complex construct, and developmental researchers have identified a variety of subdimensions that may be germane to substance use. Very little research has examined risk pathways from subdimensions of aggression. The current study examined a developmental model and tested whether childhood proactive aggression, reactive aggression, or both were related to the development of substance use in adolescence in a sample of 126 children (mean age at initial assessment = 10.4 years, SD = 0.51). Peer rejection and peer delinquency were examined as potential mediators of these relations. The findings suggest that proactive aggression was indirectly associated with substance use through peer delinquency. Reactive aggression was also indirectly associated with substance use through a complex mediational chain, such that high levels of reactive aggression were associated with high levels of peer rejection, which in turn were associated with peer delinquency (p = .06), which subsequently predicted substance use.
儿童期攻击行为是青少年物质使用的一个已知风险因素；然而，攻击行为是一个复杂的概念，发展研究人员已经确定了多种可能与物质使用相关的子维度。很少有研究考察攻击行为子维度的风险路径。本研究考察了一个发展模型，并在126名儿童样本（初次评估时的平均年龄 = 10.4岁，标准差 = 0.51）中测试了儿童期主动性攻击、反应性攻击或两者是否与青少年物质使用的发展有关。同伴排斥和同伴犯罪被作为这些关系的潜在中介因素进行考察。研究结果表明，主动性攻击通过同伴犯罪与物质使用间接相关。反应性攻击也通过一个复杂的中介链与物质使用间接相关，即高水平的反应性攻击与高水平的同伴排斥相关，而同伴排斥又与同伴犯罪相关（p = 0.06），同伴犯罪随后预测了物质使用。
