Aggressive girls in Canada / by Debra J. Pepler and Farrokh Sedighdeilami. : MP32-28/98-30E

To date, the majority of studies of aggression have focused on aggressive boys, as their problem behaviours are more prevalent and serious than those of girls. Little attention has been directed to the risks and long-term consequences for aggressive girls. However, data on the development of aggressive girls into adulthood suggests that girls who are aggressive may also constitute a significant social concern in Canada.--Executive summary
