Abstract Details

2020, PhD, University of Cincinnati, Education, Criminal Justice, and Human Services: Criminal Justice.
Bullying victimization is a well-documented social problem, whose consequences foster changes in public policy, and drive the implementation of intervention programs and empirical research. Traditionally, researchers have focused on identifying the individual and environmental factors that shape youth risk of being bullied. A more recent body of work has turned to using theory to better understand how individual and environmental factors shape pathways of risk for some youth. Specifically, researchers have used the lifestyle-routine activities, low self-control and target congruence paradigms to better understand peer victimization, such as bullying, among youth. While the importance of theoretical integration has been confirmed by this body of research, few studies have explicitly tested the applicability of target congruence, along with lifestyle-routine activities and low self-control to better understand the most commonly reported type of bullying—teasing.
