目的：本研究以美国中西部州五所中学的1391名初中生(男、女，5-8年级)为研究对象，研究欺凌经历与性暴力之间的关系。方法：我们包括一项更大规模的纵向研究中的第一波和第二波，该研究旨在跟踪欺凌和性暴力受害和/或性暴力之间的重叠关系。第一波数据是在2008年春季收集的，第二波数据是在2008年秋季收集的。学生参与者在纸和笔调查中完成了一系列量表。结果：使用截止值，12%的男性和12%的女性可以被认为是欺负行为的实施者。32%的男生(22%的女生)报告对其他学生发表性评论，5%的男生(7%的女生)传播性谣言，4%的男生(2%的女生)扯别人的衣服。随着时间的推移，欺凌和恐同的取笑是性骚扰行为的重要预测因素。结论：鉴于欺凌、仇视同性恋的取笑和性骚扰之间的重叠，未来的研究应该解决这些攻击形式之间的联系，以便加强预防计划，以解决基于性别的欺凌和性骚扰。(C)2012年青少年健康和医学学会。版权所有。
Purpose: This study examines the association between bullying experiences and sexual violence (SV) perpetration among a sample of middle school students (n = 1391; males and females in grades 5-8) across five middle schools in a Midwestern state.Methods: We include waves 1 and 2 of a larger longitudinal study that aimed to track the overlap between bullying and SV victimization and/or perpetration across a 3-year period. Wave 1 data were collected in the spring of 2008, and wave 2 data were collected in the fall of 2008. Student participants completed a series of scales in a paper and pencil survey. After missing data imputation, a total sample of 1391 students was analyzed.Results: Using cutoff scores, 12% of males and 12% of females could be considered bully perpetrators. Thirty-two percent of the boys (22% of girls) reported making sexual comments to other students, 5% of boys (7% of girls) spread a sexual rumor, and 4% of boys (2% of girls) pulled at someone's clothing. Bullying perpetration and homophobic teasing were significant predictors of sexual harassment perpetration over time.Conclusions: Given the overlap among bullying, homophobic teasing perpetration, and SV perpetration, future studies should address the link among these forms of aggression so that prevention programs can be enhanced to address gender-based bullying and sexual harassment.
