  • Title: Child impulsiveness-inattention, early peer experiences, and the development of early onset conduct problems.
    Author: Snyder J, Prichard J, Schrepferman L, Patrick MR, Stoolmiller M.
    Journal: J Abnorm Child Psychol; 2004 Dec; 32(6):579-94. PubMed ID: 15648526.
    Abstract:
    The conjoint influence of child impulsiveness-inattention (I/I) and peer relationships on growth trajectories of conduct problems was assessed in a community sample of 267 boys and girls. I/I reliably predicted teacher- and parent-reported conduct problems at kindergarten entry and growth in those problems over the next 2 years for boys and girls. The relation of boys' I/I to conduct problems was mediated, in part, by peer rejection and involvement in coercive exchanges with peers. The relation of girls' I/I to conduct problems was less clearly mediated by peer processes, but peer difficulties had additive effects. The impact of peer relationships on trajectories of conduct problems was apparent to parents as well as to teachers. Although I/I increments risk for early and persisting conduct problems in concert with poor peer relationships, it does so in complex and gender-specific ways.
