本研究探讨了欺负者，受害者和侵略性的受害者（那些谁是欺负者和受害者）是否不同的课堂社交网络变量，性别和种族。调查数据主要收集自拉丁美洲和亚洲样本的1，368南加州六年级学生（平均年龄= 11.3岁）。进行逻辑回归分析，以确定网络特征和种族是否与每个结果变量相关。与社会认知理论相一致，朋友参与攻击行为与成为欺负者或攻击性受害者呈正相关，与成为受害者呈负相关。与社会支配理论相一致，收到的友谊提名的数量与成为受害者呈负相关。女恶霸获得的友谊提名较少，但有更高比例的互惠友谊。受害者不成比例地是亚洲人。研究结果表明，针对攻击性强的学生的欺凌预防工作也可能会蔓延到他们的朋友身上，而处理攻击性情况的自信训练可能会成功地对抗欺凌和攻击。
This study examined whether bullies, victims, and aggressive victims (those who are both bullies and victims) differed on classroom social network variables, gender, and ethnicity. Survey data were collected from a primarily Latino and Asian sample of 1,368 Southern California 6th graders (mean age = 11.3 years). Logistic regression analyses were performed to determine whether network characteristics and ethnicity were associated with each of the outcome variables. Consistent with social cognitive theory, friends' participation in aggressive behaviors was positively associated with being a bully or an aggressive victim, and negatively associated with being a victim. Consistent with social dominance theory, the number of friendship nominations received was negatively associated with being a victim. Female bullies received fewer friendship nominations, but had a higher proportion of reciprocated friendships. Victims were disproportionately Asian. The findings suggest that bullying prevention efforts targeting highly aggressive students may also diffuse to their friends, and that assertiveness training in handling aggressive situations may successfully combat bullying and aggression.
