The Proof is in the Punch: Gender Differences in Perceptions of Action and Aggression as Components of Manhood (2010, background): “It is well established that girls and women are less likely to use physical aggression than boys and men (Archer 2004; Card et al. 2008; Crick and Grotpeter 1995; Lagerspetz et al. 1988), suggesting that a physically aggressive act committed by a woman might be viewed as odd by observers regardless ”

Status Struggles (2011, background): “When studies use peer- or self-reports, gender effect sizes are much smaller (Card et al. 2008; Espelage and Swearer 2003; Rhys and Bear 1997) or reversed (Tomada and Schneider 1997).”
It’s “Mean,” But What Does It Mean to Adolescents? Relational Aggression Described by Victims, Aggressors, and Their Peers (2010, background): “This supported meta-analytical findings of Card et al.

Bullying in schools: the power of bullies and the plight of victims. (2014, background): “…on indirect forms of aggression, inasmuch as the latter requires more sophisticated social understanding and skills (Rivers & Smith 1994), a recent meta-analysis of more than 100 studies did not reveal any reliable age differences in the use of direct versus indirect tactics (Card et al. 2008).”
