So far, empirical evidence regarding the effects of extended education on externalizing behavior is mixed. To explore possible moderators, multilevel-analyses were conducted in a longitudinal sample of 492 students from 51 all-day schools in Switzerland. No main effects of utilization intensity, interaction quality and externalizing behavior in peers on the development of externalizing behavior from grade 1 to grade 2 were found. However, the relationship between utilization intensity and change in externalizing behavior was moderated by externalizing behavior in peers and by caregiver-student interactions. Subsequent analyses display a complex pattern of these cross-level interactions, indicating confounding characteristics. Implications for future research are discussed.
