Abstrak	The purpose of this study was two fold: 1. determine whether an affective-cognitive construct, hostility, and a cognitive-affective criminal thinking style, reactive criminal thinking (RCT), mediate the relationship between prior violent victimization and future violent offending, and 2. ascertain whether mediator order hostility before RCT and RCT before hostility makes a difference in the overall results. Using seven waves of data, three overlapping analyses were performed on data provided by 1,354 youth (1,170 males, 184 females; mean age = 16.04 years) from the Pathways to Desistance study. A two-mediator pathway that placed hostility before RCT (Victimization 1/2/3 Hostility 2/3/4 RCT-3/4/5 Offending 4/5/6) proved significant in all three analyses, whereas the alternate two-mediator pathway, in which the order of the two mediators was reversed (i.e. RCT 2/3/4 Hostility 3/4/5), was nonsignificant in two out of the three analyses. Five single mediator pathways, four of which were mediated by hostility, were also significant. Congruent with aspects of both general strain and criminal lifestyle theories, violent victimization appeared to stimulate short term situational hostility, which, in turn, facilitated or primed formation of reactive criminal thinking and the youths eventual participation in criminal violence, although hostility alone had a significant impact on criminal violence as well.
