Weeland, Joyce; Brummelman, Eddie; Jaffee, Sara R.; Chhangur, Rabia R.; van der Giessen, Danielle; Matthys, Walter; Orobio de Castro, Bram; Overbeek, Geertjan – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Caregivers are often encouraged to praise children to reduce externalizing behavior.

Bullying in middle school can be understood through the lens of the evolutionary theory. This theory views bullying behaviours as aspects of a drive for power and status, dark facets of charisma and leadership. In this light, we seek to channel these natural instincts into more positive outlets, giving "bullies" -- and all students --…
