Abstract
This paper examines the current literature on relational aggression, including what schools can do about it and ideas for professional school counselors. By reviewing a number of articles, each was evaluated for practicality, applications, and how it addressed gaps in the current literature. Research indicates that relational aggression is typically used by girls, and is considered a problem by many adolescents. Longitudinal studies on the results of early intervention (fifth grade and younger) have not been done; however, peer counseling and a systemic program that encompasses teacher and parent education seem to have been met with the most success. Future studies will need to address success rates of specific programs in order to better guide implementation.
