Peer harassment was related to negativity towards school, as was witnessing their classmates being subjected to peer harassment. Findings were based upon two samples of 95 to 97 sixth graders who rated their moods and described incidents of daily peer harassment. The results indicate a need to extend violence prevention efforts to all students. Read more from this post.
