过去对同伴受害的研究主要集中在通过公开攻击行为的虐待。虽然在最近的研究中已经确定了一种关系形式的攻击，但尚未对关系攻击的受害者进行研究。本研究旨在作为第一次尝试解决这个问题。实现了四个目标（n = 474;三至六年级儿童）：（a）发展一种通过关系攻击和公开攻击的受害的自我报告测量;（B）评价公开受害和关系受害之间的关系;（c）评价受害的性别、年级和社会地位群体差异;以及（d）受害与社会心理适应之间关系的评估。结果表明，新开发的受害措施具有良好的心理测量特性，大多数确定的受害者是关系或公开的攻击的目标，但不是两者兼而有之。此外，被拒绝的儿童比被更好地接受的同龄人在关系上和公开地受到更多的伤害，而男孩比女孩受到更多的公开伤害。最后，关系受害、公开受害和同伴缺乏亲社会治疗都与社会心理适应困难显著相关（例如，抑郁、孤独）。
Past research on peer victimization has focused on maltreatment through overtly aggressive behaviors. Although a relational form of aggression has been identified in recent research, studies of the victims of relational aggression have not yet been conducted. The present research was designed as a first attempt to address this issue. Four goals were pursued (n = 474; third- through sixth-grade children): (a) development of a self-report measure of victimization through relational and overt aggression; (b) assessment of the relation between overt victimization and relational victimization; (c) assessment of gender, grade, and sociometric status group differences in victimization; and (d) evaluation of the relation between victimization and social-psychological adjustment. Results showed that the newly developed victimization measure had favorable psychometric properties and that most of the identified victims were the targets of either relational or overt aggression, but not both. Further, rejected children were more relationally and overtly victimized than their better accepted peers, and boys were more overtly victimized than girls. Finally, relational victimization, overt victimization, and the lack of prosocial treatment by peers were all significantly related to social-psychological adjustment difficulties (e.g., depression, loneliness).
