Peer Harassment in School
The Plight of the Vulnerable and Victimized
Edited by Jaana Juvonen and Sandra Graham
Many youngsters are targets of verbal and physical abuse or social ostracism at some point
during their school careers, and a minority are repeatedly victimized by their peers.
Which students become the targets of aggressive behavior, and why? What are the
psychological and health consequences of victimization? Of crucial importance, what can
school professionals do to help? This volume brings together leading investigators to
present the latest psychological research on chronically victimized children and
adolescents. Chapters review conceptual and methodological issues, identify developmental
differences in types of harassment, and explore various reaction patterns associated with
victimization. Findings are presented on the correlates and consequences of harassment,
from peer rejection to compromised mental and physical health, as well as its role in peer
group dynamics. Highlighting the practical implications of current research, the volume
discusses a number of school-based prevention and intervention approaches.
