Resum

Longitudinal study of the primacy effect between depression and physical and verbal aggression in a child and adolescent sample. The comorbidity between depression and physical and verbal aggression is a phenomenon capable of altering the intensity of the expression of its symptomatology and, thus, canceling out any typical treatment. Despite this fact, few longitudinal studies have been developed to test the effect of primacy and the magnitude of intensity resulting from the comorbid effect. Therefore, the objective of this study is to analyze longitudinally in a Spanish child-juvenile sample, whether it is depression that predicts physical or verbal aggression and vice versa, as well as the degree of magnitude between such disorders. For this purpose, a sample of 525 children between 10 and 13 years old (58.9% girls) was followed up for 3 years. Participants completed the Children’s Depression Questionnaire (Short version) and the Physical and Verbal Aggression Questionnaire. The longitudinal results indicated a predominance effect of depression at 10.86 years on verbal aggression at 11.86 and 12.86 year. Moreover, cross-sectional data indicated at 11.86 years, aggression (physical and verbal) predicted the onset of depression, while at 12.86 years old an effect of shared risk factor (e.g., belonging to a single parent family and having a low socioeconomic status) and verbal aggression predicted depression. These results suggest the need to consider the longitudinal course of depression and aggression to improve the diagnosis and treatment of depression and physical and verbal aggression in comorbidity.
