JESUS CAVA, María. Family, teachers, and peers: keys for supporting victims of bullying. Psychosocial Intervention [online]. 2011, vol.20, n.2, pp.183-192. ISSN 2173-4712.  https://dx.doi.org/10.5093/in2011v20n2a6.

The aim of the current study was to analyse the differences in psychological adjustment in victims of bullying as a function of the quality of their relationships with parents, teachers, and peers. More specifically, it was compared four psychological adjustment indicators (self-esteem, depressive mood, loneliness, and stress perception) in victims with good or bad communication with his/her mother, good or bad communication with his/her father, high or low perception of teacher's help, and high or low identification with their peer group. The initial sample was composed of 1795 adolescents aged from 11 to 18 years old (M = 14.2, SD = 1.68). Results indicated better psychological adjustment in victims with better relationships with their parents, teachers, and peers than in victims with worse quality relationships. These results are discussed, and their implications in the development of intervention programmes on school violence are pointed out.
