{"title":"The Lifelong Impact of Bullying Behaviours on Crime Through David Farrington's Legacy","authors":"Louise Arseneault","doi":"10.1002/cbm.2380","DOIUrl":"10.1002/cbm.2380","url":null,"abstract":"<p>I have spent a significant part of my career with a team of talented young researchers investigating how childhood bullying impacts people's mental health and overall functioning. Together over the years, we have demonstrated that the impact of childhood bullying victimisation is environmentally mediated (Arseneault et al. <span>2008</span>), that children who experience bullying benefit from supportive family environments (Bowes et al. <span>2010</span>) and that bullying contributes to early psychotic symptoms (Arseneault et al. <span>2011</span>). We also explored the biological effects of bullying victimisation, including HPA axis dysregulation (Ouellet-Morin et al. <span>2011</span>) and inflammation (Danese et al. <span>2011</span>). Our findings highlight the long-term impact of being bullied in childhood on both mental and physical health in adulthood (Takizawa et al. <span>2014</span>) and document the burden bullying places on the NHS and UK mental health services (Evans-Lacko et al. <span>2017</span>).</p><p>Whenever I presented these findings at conferences or scientific meetings, without fail someone in the audience would ask, ‘What about the children who bully others?’ My initial thought was always the same: these are children with conduct problems, and decades of research have already produced extensive knowledge about them. What more remains to be uncovered? Eventually, I decided to investigate whether children who bully others were simply children with conduct problems or if there was more to their behaviour. In doing so, I followed in the footsteps of David Farrington, who has long studied bullying behaviours and their developmental impact.</p><p>David Farrington extensively examined bullying from a criminological perspective, investigating the long-term trajectory of children who bully others. In doing so, he drew insights from his own Integrated Cognitive Antisocial Potential (ICAP) theory, in which he aimed to explain criminal behaviour by distinguishing antisocial potential (AP) and cognition (Farrington <span>2020</span>). His theory stipulates that individuals with high long-term antisocial potential are more likely to engage in persistent offending, whereas those with low long-term antisocial potential may only commit crimes in certain situations. It integrates psychological and social influences to demonstrate why some people offend more frequently or persistently than others. From this view, Farrington hypothesised that both bullying and violent offending are symptoms of the same underlying issues, suggesting that the later outcomes of children who bully would be similar to those involved in violent offences. His analyses invariably used data from the Cambridge Study in Delinquent Development, a prospective longitudinal cohort study of 411 men from South London, first assessed in the early 1960s. He led that study for several years, following on from his colleague, British psychiatrist Donald J. West.</p><p>With Mari","PeriodicalId":47362,"journal":{"name":"Criminal Behaviour and Mental Health","volume":"35 2","pages":"80-82"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cbm.2380","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143663975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

All participants had a psychosis and a history of serious crimes. Attribution of blame was self-rated in the same session during which a clinician rated their symptoms using the PANSS. GBAI-R-J scores were converted into a categorical variable by allocating each participant into one of two groups—those scoring up to the half point or those scoring at or above it on each subscale. The three PANSS scale scores were treated as continuous variables.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Results&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;There was a significant positive relationship between the GBAI-R-J externalising blame scores and PANSS scores for positive symptoms and general psychopathology but not for negative symptoms. Neither the acceptance of personal the guilt factor nor the mental element factor, which imply attribution of the offence to mental disorder, was significantly related to any aspect of symptoms.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Conclusions&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;This is the first study to compare blame attribution for a serious index offence and mental state simultaneously, albeit at various stages of treatment and time after the offence. The association of persistent positive symptoms with externalising blame is understandable in terms of the nature of the symptoms, almost invariable including paranoid delusions. The absence of a relationship with acceptance of guilt or understanding the role of mental disorder in the offending suggests that many of these patients require further treatment to accept personal agency. A longitudinal study is indicated to test these possibilities further.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 ","PeriodicalId":47362,"journal":{"name":"Criminal Behaviour and Mental Health","volume":"35 3","pages":"153-160"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cbm.2376","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143469574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
