Bru, Edvin; Boyesen, Marit; Munthe, Elaine; Roland, Erling
Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, v42 n4 p339-56 Dec 1998
A majority of 1071 Norwegian eighth graders studied reported satisfactory support from teachers and relations with peers, although 12% reported more severe emotional complaints and 10% reported more severe musculoskeletal complaints. Exposure to harassment at school and a perceived lack of academic support show the strongest associations with emotional and musculoskeletal complaints. (SLD)
