Key research themes

2. What are the psychosocial and behavioral mechanisms underlying bullying roles (perpetrator, victim, bystander) and associated social-cognitive processes?

This body of research explores individual and social cognitive factors such as moral disengagement, social efficacy, bystander roles, and social networks in understanding bullying dynamics. It investigates how cognitive distortions facilitate bullying behavior, influence bystander reactions, and how social effectiveness, responsiveness, and reciprocity govern interactions between bullies and victims. The integration of multilayered social-cognitive factors informs prevention efforts targeted at these mechanisms.

Key finding: This longitudinal study found that among Swedish students aged 12 and 14, the moral disengagement locus related to cognitive restructuring consistently correlated with bullying behavior across sexes and ages. It also revealed... Read more

3. What are the psychosocial impacts, chronicity, and long-term consequences of bullying victimization, and how do these experiences affect social relationships?

This research theme focuses on the mental health outcomes and social ramifications of involvement in bullying, examining the longevity and intensity of victimization experiences. It addresses emotional, cognitive, and behavioral sequelae such as depression, anxiety, suicidality, and social withdrawal. Additionally, it explores how bullying shapes attachment to peers, parents, teachers, and school, with attention to chronic victimization trajectories and implications for prevention and support.

Key finding: Through grounded theory qualitative analysis of nine individuals with chronic bullying histories (≥6 years), the study uncovers a progressive timeline characterized by cumulative maladaptive coping strategies (e.g.,... Read more
