Abstract

The article focuses on research regarding the impact of childhood maltreatment and peer victimization on antisocial behavior among left-behind children (LBC) in Dalian, People's Republic of China. The study, conducted by researchers from Liaoning Normal University, involved 1,004 LBC and identified three profiles of childhood experiences: low risk, doubly disadvantaged, and severe neglect. Findings indicated that those in the doubly disadvantaged and severe neglect categories exhibited higher levels of antisocial behavior over time, with psychological capital partially mediating these effects. The research aims to provide insights for the prevention and intervention of antisocial behavior in this vulnerable population. [Extracted from the article]
