两个假设进行了测试。第一个是，随着时间的推移，低自尊会导致同龄人的受害。第二个是行为脆弱性（例如，身体虚弱、明显的焦虑、社交技能差），随着时间的推移，当儿童自尊心低时，比当他们通过健康的自尊心“自我保护”时，更有可能导致受害。参与者是189名三到七年级的男孩和女孩;数据收集在秋季和春季学年。这两个假设都得到了支持，特别是当自尊被评估的自我感知的同伴社会能力。此外，随着时间的推移，受害者的经历导致自尊心下降。自我概念差可能在恶性循环中起核心作用，这种恶性循环使儿童成为同伴虐待的受害者。
Two hypotheses were tested. The first was that low self-regard contributes over time to victimization by peers. The second was that behavioral vulnerabilities (e.g., physical weakness, manifest anxiety, poor social skills) are more likely to lead to victimization over time when children have low self-regard than when they are "self-protected" by healthy self-regard. Participants were 189 third-through 7th-grade boys and girls; data were collected in the fall and the spring of the school year. Both hypotheses were supported, especially when self-regard was assessed in terms of self-perceived peer social competence. In addition, the experience of being victimized led to diminished self-regard over time. Poor self-concept may play a central role in a vicious cycle that perpetuates and solidifies a child's status as a victim of peer abuse.
