TY - JOUR PY - 2007// TI - The inter-relations of mother and father attachment, self-esteem and aggression during late adolescence JO - Aggressive behavior A1 - Gomez, Rapson A1 - McLaren, Suzanne SP - 160 EP - 169 VL - 33 IS - 2 N2 - This study examined three models depicting the relations between mother and father attachment, self-esteem and aggression. A total of 385 participants (173 males and 212 females), aged from 18 to 20 years, completed self-rating questionnaires covering mother and father attachment, self-esteem and aggression. Results showed that self-esteem had additive and mediation effects on both the father attachment-aggression and mother attachment-aggression relationships, and also moderated the mother attachment-aggression relation. These findings are discussed in terms of different models for the inter-relations of mother and father attachment, self-esteem and aggression in late adolescence.
