Book excerpt: Research has established the link between children's peer victimization and internalizing problems, but less is known about the direction of associations between these two constructs. This study used an accelerated longitudinal research design to examine four models testing the co-occurrence and directional associations between children's peer victimization and internalizing problems from early to middle childhood (from age 4.5 to 10.5 years). The baseline covariation model was examined first to test the hypothesis that levels and change in peer victimization co-occur with levels and change in internalizing problems. This model was used as the basis from which to build the following directional models. Next, the peer victimization-driven model tested the hypothesis that children's early experiences of peer victimization contribute to change in internalizing problems. The internalizing problems-driven model tested the hypothesis that early internalizing problems contribute to change in peer victimization. Last, the transactional tested the hypothesis that both early peer victimization and early internalizing problems contribute to change in each other. Gender and dimensions of teacher-child relationship quality (closeness, conflict, and dependency) were also tested as predictors of change in peer victimization and internalizing problems and as moderators of associations between these two constructs. Overall, the internalizing problems-driven model best explained the directional associations between peer victimization and internalizing problems. When the average 5.5 year old child had higher levels of internalizing problems this predicted slower increases in their peer victimization through age 10.5 years. Teacher-child conflict also moderated this association; younger children who experienced higher levels of internalizing and who had more conflictual relations with teachers showed slower increases in their peer victimization through to age 10.5 years than children with less conflicted teacher-child relations.

This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peer victimization among children is a major concern in our society as it is associated with a number of adjustment difficulties that manifest over time. Although peer victimization declines for most children during the elementary school years, research suggests that between 2-25% of children continue to report high-stable or increasing levels of peer victimization over time. However, little is known about the developmental changes that explain why children become locked into these high-risk groups. Using a longitudinal sample of children in grades 1-3 followed across 5 waves of assessments, this dissertation investigated how differences in the chronicity of children's peer victimization experiences relate to changes in their mental health (internalizing and externalizing symptoms), social competence (prosocial leadership and social responsibility), and experiences of school climate. Latent class analyses revealed that children follow 4 distinct trajectory groups of physical and relational peer victimization characterized by chronically high (ns = 102 & 199, physical and relational respectively), increasing (ns = 115 & 169), decreasing (ns = 466 & 174) or low stable (ns = 1260 & 1402) levels of physical and relational peer victimization across time. Findings from multilevel analyses showed that the peer victimization subgroups also varied in their longitudinal patterns of mental health, social competence and experiences of school climate after accounting for differences in sex, age, socioeconomic status, and prevention program participation. Children who had chronically high levels of peer victimization had higher mental health symptoms, lower levels of social competence and poorer experiences of school climate consistently over time compared to children in the low stable group. Children who reported increasing levels of peer victimization over time had slower rates of improvement in their social competence than children in the low stable group. Furthermore, children with increasing levels of peer victimization also had declining experiences of school climate over time compared to children in the low stable peer victimization group. The heterogeneity in children's experiences of peer victimization suggest that programs need to tailor prevention efforts to the specific needs of at-risk children who adjust differently to their victimization experiences.

Download or read book Child-level Predictors of Boys' and Girls' Trajectories of Physical, Verbal, and Relational Victimization written by Laura K. Clary and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For some children, peer victimization stops rather quickly, whereas for others it marks the beginning of a long trajectory of peer abuse (Kochenderfer-Ladd & Wardrop, 2001). Unfortunately, we know little about these trajectories and what factors may influence membership in increasing or decreasing victimization over time. To address this question, I identified children's developmental patterns of victimization in early elementary school and examined which child-level factors influenced children's membership in victimization trajectories using latent growth mixture modeling. Results showed that boys and girls demonstrated differential victimization patterns over time that also varied by victimization type. For example, boys experienced more physical victimization than girls and increased victimization over time was predicted by boys who display high levels of negative emotion (e.g., anger) towards peers and low levels of effortful control (e.g., gets frustrated easily). Conversely, girls exhibited multiple trajectories of increasing relational victimization (i.e., talking about others behind their back) over time, whereas most boys experienced low levels or only slightly increasing relational victimization over time. For girls, withdrawn behavior lack of positive emotion, and displaying of negative emotions was predictive of experiencing high levels of victimization over time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the developmental trajectory of a potential source of resilience, prosocial behaviors, and its association with children's peer victimization from third to sixth grade. Latent growth mixture modeling (LGMM) was employed to explore first whether there were latent classes that emerged from these associations over time, and second, if there was a latent class indicating a potentially resilient pattern for victims. That is, a class with decreasing peer victimization and increasing or high-stable prosocial behaviors. The current study examined 1091 children (540 females, 81.4% Caucasian) who were followed across several time points (birth to 9th grade) as part of the NICHD Study of Early Child Care. Data from the third phase were used for the current study, with assessments included from third to sixth grade. Findings from a parallel process LGMM indicated three latent classes (labeled normative, at-risk, and resilient) emerged from the data supporting the proposed hypotheses. Characteristics of each class are as follows: the normative class indicated a slight decrease in victimization and high-stable prosocial behaviors, the at-risk class indicated increasing victimization and decreasing prosocial behaviors, and, most notably, the resilient class indicated high initial, but dramatically decreasing victimization and high-stable prosocial behaviors. Follow-up analyses with covariates from the family, school, and individual levels further supported the labeling of these classes. Results highlight the need for further examine potential heterogeneity among victims, in particular, examining a source of resilience the victims themselves can enact. Implications for future studies examining prosocial behaviors as a source of resilience for peer victimized children are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While several recent popular books address the topic of girls' "meanness" to one another, this volume offers the first balanced, scholarly analysis of scientific knowledge in this area. Integrating current research on emotion regulation, gender, and peer relations, the book examines how girls are socialized to experience and express anger and aggression from infancy through adolescence. Considered are the developmental functions of such behaviors as gossip, friendship manipulation, and social exclusion; consequences for both victims and perpetrators; and approaches to intervention and prevention. Presenting innovative research models and methods, this is an accessible and much-needed synthesis for researchers, professionals, and students. Key Features: * Hot topic, garnering coverage in general media (e.g., The New York Times Magazine) * Accessibly written, with examples clarifying abstract points * Covers and integrates both physical and social aggression

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the role of peer relationships in child and adolescent development by tracking research findings from the early 1900s to the present. Dividing the research into three generations, the book describes what has been learned about children's peer relations and how children's participation in peer relationships contributes to their health, adjustment, and achievement. Gary W. Ladd reviews and interprets the investigative focus and findings of distinct research eras to highlight theoretical or empirical breakthroughs in the study of children's peer relations and social competence over the last century. He also discusses how this information is relevant to understanding and promoting children's health and development. In a final chapter, the author appraises the major discoveries that have emerged during the three research generations and analyzes recent scientific agendas and discoveries in the peer relations discipline.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A community sample of 167 elementary school students was evaluated in order to examine the relationship between trajectories of indirect and direct peer victimization and perpetration with externalizing and internalizing problems. While eight models were proposed, only six were tested. Four of these models focused on the perpetration of peer aggression. Results indicated that the perpetration of direct peer aggression in the fall of children's kindergarten year predicted externalizing behaviors in the spring of first grade; however, the perpetration of direct peer aggression was not observed to predict internalizing problems. The perpetration of indirect peer aggression in the fall of kindergarten was found to predict internalizing behaviors in the spring of first grade, though predictions of externalizing problems were not significant. Two models focused on peer victimization. Results indicated that victimization by direct peer aggression were not significantly predictive of externalizing or internalizing problems. Gender differences in these findings were also investigated. Overall, the results of the present study show that victimization by peer aggression and perpetration of aggression toward peers are common in early childhood, and suggest that aggression toward peers may play a particularly salient role in the development of later adjustment problems.

This book was released on 2016-09-14 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bullying has long been tolerated as a rite of passage among children and adolescents. There is an implication that individuals who are bullied must have "asked for" this type of treatment, or deserved it. Sometimes, even the child who is bullied begins to internalize this idea. For many years, there has been a general acceptance and collective shrug when it comes to a child or adolescent with greater social capital or power pushing around a child perceived as subordinate. But bullying is not developmentally appropriate; it should not be considered a normal part of the typical social grouping that occurs throughout a child's life. Although bullying behavior endures through generations, the milieu is changing. Historically, bulling has occurred at school, the physical setting in which most of childhood is centered and the primary source for peer group formation. In recent years, however, the physical setting is not the only place bullying is occurring. Technology allows for an entirely new type of digital electronic aggression, cyberbullying, which takes place through chat rooms, instant messaging, social media, and other forms of digital electronic communication. Composition of peer groups, shifting demographics, changing societal norms, and modern technology are contextual factors that must be considered to understand and effectively react to bullying in the United States. Youth are embedded in multiple contexts and each of these contexts interacts with individual characteristics of youth in ways that either exacerbate or attenuate the association between these individual characteristics and bullying perpetration or victimization. Recognizing that bullying behavior is a major public health problem that demands the concerted and coordinated time and attention of parents, educators and school administrators, health care providers, policy makers, families, and others concerned with the care of children, this report evaluates the state of the science on biological and psychosocial consequences of peer victimization and the risk and protective factors that either increase or decrease peer victimization behavior and consequences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive examination of theory, research, prevention and intervention, and professional practice issues - in one source. Teasing, shunning, and bullying can have serious detrimental effects on both victim and perpetrator. Bullying, Victimization, and Peer Harassment: A Handbook of Prevention and Intervention comprehensively gathers emerging research, theory, and effective practice on this subject into one invaluable source. This thorough review of a wide spectrum of innovative, evidence-based practices targets the complex problems of victimization, peer harassment, and bullying in our schools. Interventions range from individuals and their peers to broad, systems-level change within schools and communities. The challenge of prevention is also explored, using the latest studies as a practical foundation. Suggestions are provided detailing effective strategies to make changes in the culture within schools while offering directions for future research and practice. Bullying, Victimization, and Peer Harassment discusses research on current intervention programs now in place that, until now, has never been evaluated. Several of the studies address middle school issues and multi-ethnic populations, including those from the United States, Canada, and Europe. Peer sexual harassment and dating-related aggression are examined that includes and goes beyond traditional views of bullying and peer intimidation. This valuable handbook provides concise yet extensive information on the most current theory, empirical research, practice guidelines, and suggestions for preparing schools for programmatic initiatives. Topics in Bullying, Victimization, and Peer Harassment include: theory and conceptual issues in victimization, bullying, and peer harassment assessment results from a four-year longitudinal study on peer victimization in early adolescents youth perceptions toward bullying high school students’ victimization profiles immigrant children and victimization evaluating an adolescent violence prevention program a school-based intervention program peer group intervention interventions for victims multiple perspectives involving sexual harassment school-wide approaches to prevention and intervention and much more! Bullying, Victimization, and Peer Harassment is a crucial resource for researchers and mental health professionals who work in schools and who work with children and their families, such as school psychologists, counselors, clinical child psychologists, social workers, and community psychologists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Consistent with a child x environment model it was hypothesized that anxious solitude and the middle school transition interact to influence peer mistreatment over time. A sample of 688 children participated in peer- and self-reported behavioral nominations assessing exclusion and victimization twice yearly from the fall of third grade through the spring of seventh grade, including the transition to middle school in the fall of sixth grade. Classroom emotional support was observed yearly. Piecewise growth curve models were used to model the level and slope of peer mistreatment outcomes before, at, and after the middle school transition, and assess child-driven, environment-driven, and child x environment effects. Observed classroom emotional support decreased at the middle school transition. According to peer-reports, high vs. average anxious solitary children experienced greater relative improvements in exclusion and victimization at the transition (child x environment effects). However, in both elementary and middle school, elevated anxious solitude predicted elevated peer exclusion and victimization (child-driven effects). Consistent with environment-driven effects, peer- and self-reports indicated decreased exclusion at the transition, indicating that exclusion occurred less frequently when peer-groups were not well-established. Furthermore, peer-, but not self-, reports indicated decreased victimization at the middle school transition, although overall both reporters indicated lower levels of victimization in middle vs. elementary school. Because improvements in peer mistreatment did not correspond to increased classroom emotional support, rearrangement of peer social structure appeared to have the biggest impact on peer mistreatment after the middle school transition."--Abstract from author supplied metadata.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After decades of focusing on the mother's role in parenting, family studies researchers have turned their attention to the role of the father in parenting and family development. The results shed new light on childhood development and question conventional wisdom by showing that beyond providing the more traditional economic support of the family, fathers do indeed matter when it comes to raising a child. Stemming from a series of workshops and publications sponsored by the Family and Child Well-Being Network, under the federal fatherhood initiative of the National Institute of Child Health and Development, this comprehensive volume focuses on ways of measuring the efficacy of father involvement in different scenarios, using different methods of assessment and different populations. In the process, new research strategies and new parental paradigms have been formulated to include paternal involvement. Moreover, this volume contains articles from a variety of influences while addressing the task of finding the missing pieces of the fatherhood construct that would work for new age, as well as traditional and minority fathers. The scope of this discussion offers topics of interest to basic researchers, as well as public policy analysts.
