ABSTRACT
Peer violence is a critical concern in Vietnamese schools due to its negative effects on student academic outcomes. The current study aims at examining the roles of normative beliefs approving aggression and harsh punishment as a type of negative parenting practice. There are 155 (56.8% girls; Mage = 13.0, SD = 1.25) Vietnamese secondary students taking part in the study. Results indicated that both normative beliefs approving aggression and paternal harsh punishment significantly and uniquely predict the development of aggressive behavior. Policy implications were discussed in this study.
