Depression in early adolescence: Contributions from relational aggression and variation in the oxytocin receptor gene.

Aggressive behavior - 1 Jan 2018

Kushner Shauna C, Herzhoff Kathrin, Vrshek-Schallhorn Suzanne, Tackett Jennifer L

Abstract excerpt

Interpersonal stress arising from relational aggression (RA)-the intentional effort to harm others via rejection and exclusion-may increase risk for depression in youth. Biological vulnerabilities related to the hormone oxytocin, which affects social behavior and stress responses, may exacerbate this risk. In a community sample of 307 youth (52% female; age range = 10-14 years), we tested whether (1) the...
