Physical and relational bullying and victimization
Taking an evolutionary psychological perspective, we investigated whether involvement in bullying as a perpetrator or victim was more likely if adolescents reported having more dating and sexual partners than their peers, an indication of greater engagement in competition for mates. A total of 334 adolescents (173 boys, 160 girls) between the ages of 12 and 16 years (M = 13.6, SD = 1.3), recruited from community youth organizations, completed sel…
Towards a transdisciplinary blueprint to studying bullying
Events related to bullying are so complex that they require a much broader examination than is usually available from a single disciplinary point of view. The purpose of the present paper is to offer new ways of examining this complex phenomenon. We will argue that transdisciplinarity (henceforth TD) could bring a more comprehensive analysis and a deeper understanding to the current state of bullying research. As a way of emphasizing the benefits…
What is bullying? A theoretical redefinition
Is Adolescent Bullying an Evolutionary Adaptation
Bullying appears to be ubiquitous across cultures, involving hundreds of millions of adolescents worldwide, and has potentially serious negative consequences for its participants (particularly victims). We challenge the traditionally held belief that bullying results from maladaptive development by reviewing evidence that bullying may be, in part, an evolved, facultative, adaptive strategy that offers some benefits to its practitioners. In suppor…
Evolutionary perspective on indirect victimization in adolescence
We studied indirect victimization from an evolutionary perspective by examining links between this type of victimization and several indicators of attractiveness (past sexual behavior, dating frequency and physical appearance). Two thousand three hundred and nineteen (56% female) students (ages 13–18) from a region of southern Ontario, Canada, completed self‐report measures of indirect victimization, physical appearance, dating frequency, recent …
Adolescent Non-Involvement in Multiple Risk Behaviors
Based on the conceptualization of successful development as the joint maximization of desirable outcomes and minimization of undesirable outcomes (Baltes, 1997 Baltes , P. B. (1997). On the incomplete architecture of human ontogeny. American Psychologist , 32, 366–380.[Crossref] , [Google Scholar]), the present study examined connections between adolescent non-involvement in multiple risk behaviors and positive developmental status. Results from …
Direct and indirect bully‐victims
The present study examined psychosocial risk factors that differentiated direct and indirect bully‐victims from bullies, victims and uninvolved adolescents. A total of 7,290 (3,756 girls) students (ages 13–18 yr) from a region of Southern Ontario, Canada, completed a number of self‐report measures to determine the relation between direct and indirect bullying and victimization and several psychosocial risk factors, including normative beliefs abo…
