We assessed whether rejection sensitivity and self-esteem mediate the longitudinal associations between peer victimization and mental health problems. High school students completed a series of self-report questionnaires assessing forms of peer victimization, rejection sensitivity, self-esteem, depressive symptoms, and substance use at two time points. The key finding was that both rejection sensitivity and self-esteem mediated the associations between peer victimization at Time 1 and mental health problems 1-year later. These results help illuminate the mechanisms through which peer victimization is associated with mental health problems in adolescents. The theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed.

This inability to sufficiently evaluate is particularly problematic for large collaborative research networks involving multiple partners and research institutions. The Co-produced Pathway to Impact simplifies many of the complex models of knowledge mobilization. It is a logic model based framework for mapping the progress of research -> dissemination -> uptake -> implementation -> impact. This framework is illustrated using collaborative research projects from Promoting Relationships and Eliminating Violence Network (PREVNet), a pan-Canadian community-university network engaging in knowledge mobilization to promote healthy relationships among children and youth and prevent bullying. The Co-produced Pathwa...

Between 30% and 50% of teenagers report having experienced some form of physical aggression while dating. The most common forms include slapping, pushing, and making threats. But more severe acts of violence can occur as well. Girls are just as likely as boys to report committing acts of aggression, although it is important to note that research does not tell us about girls’ and boys’ intentions and so it is premature to conclude that boys and girls are similarly aggressive.
