Bullying in educational settings remains a commonplace everyday experience. In Europe significant
attention to school bullying began in the early 1970s, in part because of the efforts of Olweus, as well as a
widely publicized trio of victim suicides in Norway in 1983. A spate of school shootings in the late 1990s
brought further media attention to the subject of school bullying, and concern was renewed during a later series
of bullying-related suicides in Canada and the United States. A US national study published at the turn of the
21st century documented that bullying and other forms of aggression affected approximately 30 percent, or 5.7
million, middle-to-high-school students in the then-current school term.
Although the root causes of bullying remain unclear, its consequences for victims are abundantly apparent.
The U.S Secret Service in conjunction with the U.S Department of Education found that bullying was a factor
in the majority of “incidents of targeted school violence” in the last two and a half decades of the 20 th century.
Victimization is also significantly related to suicidal ideation, social isolation, anxiety and depression, low self-
esteem, physical health problems, and diminished academic performance and school attachment. Many of
these effects can last well into adulthood.
However, victims are not the only ones who suffer from bullying. For many outcomes, bully-victims often
fare the worst on a variety of measures, but pure bullies also experience difficulties. They are at increased risk
of subsequent mental health problems and are likely to encounter difficulty maintaining positive relationships
as adults. More significantly, bullies are considerably more likely to be convicted of crimes and incarcerated
as young adults.
Some youth nevertheless use bullying as a way to gain social status among peers. These adolescents may
be more strategic in how they choose their targets, and they are also likely to be among the more popular
students in school. For at least some of them, bullying and harassment effectively boost their status and
influence among schoolmates by winning the admiration of peers or by tearing down social rivals. Generally
speaking, however, bullying is more effective at harming victims than aiding aggressors
