Abstract

Aggressive behaviors during early adolescence are a significant concern due to their potential long-term impacts on individuals and society. This study explores the developmental trajectories of aggressive behaviors in early adolescence, identifying key patterns such as early-onset persistent aggression, adolescence-limited aggression, and late-onset aggression. The role of biological, familial, peer, and socioeconomic factors is analyzed to understand their contribution to these trajectories. The findings emphasize the importance of early intervention and the need for comprehensive strategies to address the underlying causes of aggression in adolescents. The study also highlights the implications for developing targeted prevention and intervention programs
