Students bullying victims with high adversity quotient will be able to deal with bullying casually and have little impact on themselves. This study aims to describe the adversity quotient in students victims of bullying and analyze the differences in the adversity quotient of students victims of bullying between men and women. Data collection was from 66 students who had been victims of bullying in junior high schools in the city of Padang using purposive random sampling techniques.
