The Bully-Sexual Violence Pathway in Early Adolescence [1]
Description: 

The focus of this research brief, by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is to highlight the early findings from a three-year study aimed to examine the overlap between bullying and sexual violence victimization and perpetration in five middle schools in a Midwest state. The first two waves of the study have shown that bullying perpetration and homophobic teasing were significant predictors of sexual harassment perpetration over time.
