  • Title: Individual and familial risk and protective correlates of physical and psychological peer victimization.
    Author: Boel-Studt S, Renner LM.
    Journal: Child Abuse Negl; 2013 Dec; 37(12):1163-74. PubMed ID: 23973207.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this study was to explore the association between youth characteristics, parenting behavior, and family violence and risk of physical and/or psychological peer victimization using a sample of 856 adolescents aged 10-17. Additionally, we examined whether the relation between parenting behaviors and victimization was moderated by age and gender. Data for this study were drawn from the first wave of the Developmental Victimization Survey. The results revealed unique associations between youth and familial correlates and odds for experiencing physical, psychological, and both types of victimization. Gender was found to be a statistically significant moderator of the relation between parental monitoring and odds of experiencing both physical and psychological peer victimization. Implications for bully prevention and intervention are discussed.
