Peer victimization is a common problem among adolescents that has been linked to a variety of adjustment problems.

The current study used latent class…

Poteat, V. Paul; DiGiovanni, Craig D.; Scheer, Jillian R. – Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 2013
As a form of bias-based harassment, homophobic behavior remains prominent in schools. Yet, little attention has been given to factors that underlie it, aside from bullying and sexual prejudice. Thus, we examined multiple domain general (empathy, perspective-taking, classroom respect norms) and sexual orientation-specific factors (sexual…

In addition, the relationship of homophobic name-calling to mental health in gender non-conforming adolescents is not well understood. This…
