“…Forty-eight percent of the current sample reported at least one occurrence of peer relational victimization during the follow-up period, which is consistent with several studies of relational victimization among adolescents (e.g., Bond, Carlin, Thomas, Rubin, & Patton, 2001), but slightly lower than others (e.g., Ellis, Crooks, & Wolfe, 2009).
