Abstract

Purpose

This study examined whether social and physical peer victimization in adolescence led to changes in psychological and physical health outcomes.

Methods

One hundred and twenty adolescents (boys = 54) and a parent completed measures of peer victimization and health approximately 2 years apart.

Results

Results indicated that both social and physical victimization were related to increases in the frequency and severity of health problems over the assessment period.

Conclusions

Increases in social, but not physical victimization, were related to more internalizing problems as well as greater frequency and severity of health problems at the second assessment. Anxious depression and severity of health problems at the first assessment were related to increases in social, but not physical forms of victimization over the 2-year period. These results continue to shed light on the notion that being peer victimized is not a normal part of life and is not necessarily something that adolescents will reconcile with time.

同伴伤害对身心健康的长期影响:一项纵向研究

目的本研究探讨了青少年社会和身体同伴伤害是否会导致心理和身体健康结果的变化。方法120名青少年(男孩54名)和一名家长间隔约2年完成同伴伤害和健康测量。结果表明，在评估期间，社会和身体伤害与健康问题的频率和严重程度的增加有关。结论:在第二次评估中，社会伤害(而非身体伤害)的增加与更多的内化问题以及更频繁和更严重的健康问题有关。在第一次评估时，焦虑、抑郁和健康问题的严重程度与两年期间社会伤害的增加有关，但与身体伤害无关。这些结果继续阐明了这样一个概念，即被同伴伤害不是生活的正常部分，也不一定是青少年会随着时间的推移而接受的。
