This research used modeling theory to test peer mediator modeling and disputant learning during peer mediation.The results demonstrated that peer mediators effectively modeled, and disputants effectively learned, conflict resolution knowledge, attitudes, and skills that contributed to a significant improvement in conflict attitudes and behaviors, and a significant reduction in disputant discipline problems following mediation.
