Surveyed rural 4th-6th grade students, parents, and teachers regarding the prevalence and correlates of bullying. Results indicated that bullying was prevalent and indicative of aggression and pro-violence attitudes. Students reported higher prevalence of bullying than did parents or teachers. Their reports were associated with aggression, attitudes toward violence, and perceptions of school safety. (SM)
