Abstract

This article examines the interpersonal aggression in a sample of girls and boys from 4 to 6 years old that attend to second label in primary school in the Bio-Bio Region, Concepción. Children nominated themselves and their peers for the roles of aggressor, victim and defender from vignettes which depict four situations of aggression: indirect relational aggression, direct physical aggression, direct verbal aggression and indirect verbal aggression. The results express that Chilean preschoolers tented to be aggressive using direct aggression (relational, physical and verbal aggression), rather than indirect verbal aggression in agreement with the previous studies carried out with the same procedures. The aggressor role is more common in boys than girls, being the direct physical aggression the most frequent. However, there are no gender differences in the victim role. On the other hand, girls were nominated in the roles of outsider and they used more frequently the relational direct aggression than others sorts of aggression.
