Abstract

We identified different types of adolescent bullying perpetrators and nonbullies based on peer-reported bullying, victimization, and peer status (popularity, likeability, and rejection) and examined differences between bully subtypes in typical forms of bullying perpetrated. Moreover, we studied how bully subtypes differed from nonbullies with varying levels of victimization and peer status in academic and psychosocial adjustment. The study utilizes data from 10,689 adolescents (48.3% boys, mean age 14.7 years). Latent profile analysis identified three distinct subgroups of bullies: popular-liked bullies (13.5%), popular-rejected bully-victims (5.8%), and bully-victims (6.9%), and four groups on nonbullies. High-status bullies (popular-liked and popular-rejected) resembled nonbullies in many ways and had even lower social anxiety, whereas bully-victims were the most maladjusted group. Overall, popularity seems to protect adolescents from social anxiety, and victimization is related to internalizing problems. Results suggest that bullying, victimization, and peer status can be used to identify distinct subtypes of bullies.

青少年欺凌施暴者的异质性：基于受害情况和同伴地位的亚型。

我们根据同伴报告的欺凌行为、受害情况和同伴地位（受欢迎程度、喜欢程度和排斥程度），确定了不同类型的青少年欺凌者和非欺凌者，并研究了欺凌者亚型之间在典型欺凌形式上的差异。此外，我们还研究了不同受害程度和同伴地位的欺凌者亚型与非欺凌者亚型在学业和社会心理适应方面的差异。研究利用了 10689 名青少年（48.3% 为男孩，平均年龄为 14.7 岁）的数据。通过潜在特征分析，确定了三个不同的欺凌者亚群：受人喜爱的欺凌者（13.5%）、受人排斥的欺凌者受害者（5.8%）和欺凌者受害者（6.9%），以及四个非欺凌者群体。地位高的欺凌者（受人喜欢和被人拒绝）在很多方面都与非欺凌者相似，甚至社交焦虑程度更低，而被欺凌者则是适应不良程度最高的群体。总体而言，受欢迎似乎能保护青少年免受社交焦虑的影响，而受害则与内化问题有关。研究结果表明，欺凌、受害和同伴地位可用于识别不同亚型的欺凌者。
