The Emergence of Chronic Peer Victimization in Boys' Play Groups.
Schwartz, David; And Others
Child Development, v64 n6 p1755-72 Dec 1993
Over five days, videotaped and analyzed contrived play sessions of African-American male first and third graders to examine behavioral patterns leading to chronic victimization by peers. Victims demonstrated lower rates of assertive behaviors and higher rates of nonassertive behaviors than nonvictims. Children who eventually emerged as chronic victims were pervasively submissive.
