这项研究探讨了同伴接受度和感知受欢迎程度在青少年早期同伴群体中的欺凌和受害行为中的作用。同伴接受度是指青少年受到同龄人喜爱的程度；感知受欢迎程度表明知名度、主导地位和声望。据假设，接受度对欺凌行为有负面预测，而受欢迎程度对欺凌行为有正面预测，并且接受度和受欢迎程度都对受害行为有负面预测。接受度和受欢迎程度之间的相互作用也得到了测试。参与者是 1,207 名 13 至 14 岁的青少年，他们在课堂上完成了社会测量评估。欺凌和受害都是通过接受度和受欢迎程度之间的相互作用来预测的。欺凌行为与受欢迎程度呈正相关，这种关联对于接受度较低的青少年来说更为强烈。受害与受欢迎程度呈负相关，对于接受度较低的青少年来说，这种相关性也更强。发现了线性和曲线主效应和相互作用；有些还进一步按性别进行调节。讨论的重点是个体地位和群体动态因素在青少年早期攻击行为发生中的作用。
This study examined the role of peer acceptance and perceived popularity in bullying and victimization in early adolescent peer groups. Peer acceptance is the degree to which adolescents are well liked by their peers; perceived popularity indicates visibility, dominance, and prestige. It was hypothesized that acceptance negatively predicts bullying, whereas popularity positively predicts bullying, and that both acceptance and popularity negatively predict victimization. Interactions between acceptance and popularity were tested as well. Participants were 1,207 13- to 14-year-old adolescents who completed sociometric assessments in their classrooms. Both bullying and victimization were predicted by the interaction between acceptance and perceived popularity. Bullying was positively associated with popularity, and this association was stronger for adolescents with lower levels of acceptance. Victimization was negatively associated with popularity, and this association was also stronger for adolescents with lower levels of acceptance. Linear and curvilinear main effects and interactions were found; some were further moderated by gender. The discussion focused on the role of individual status and group dynamic factors in the occurrence of aggression among early adolescents.
