“…Finally, conflicting results were reported with respect to maladjustment as mediator between peer victimization and school affection/connectedness-whereas Galand and Hospel (2013) showed that depression in combination with self-efficacy mediated this link, no support for associations between internalizing or externalizing problems and school connectedness was found by Loukas et al (2012).…”

Being accepted by peers is central to health and wellbeing among adolescents whereas being the subject of peer/bullying-victimization can be perceived as significant interpersonal stress, resulting in compromised adjustment concurrently and long-term. Unfortunately, little is known about mechanisms that explain why peer victimization goes ''under the skin''. This systematic review aims to summarize the research on mediating pathways. A total of 65 articles were selected that explicitly examined mediation of associations between peer victimization in adolescence and concurrent and later outcomes. Most studies were based on North American and European samples and focused on internalizing or school-related outcomes. Mediation appears to be more stable by emotional states and symptoms than self-perceptions and attributions but results vary by outcome. Limitations concern the crosssectional design of most studies, geographic restriction, and widespread use of self-reports for assessments of exposure, mediator, and outcome.

“…School social environments, including involvement in school activities and feelings of connection to school, can decrease adolescent health risk. 19 School involvement and attachment have been related to less sexual risk, 20 substance use, 21,22 violence, 23,24 and suicide 25 among youth across numerous studies. Family factors, like parental monitoring and relationship satisfaction, have similar impacts.…”

“…Compared with boys, girls tend to be more connected to school (Loukas, Ripperger‐Suhler, & Herrera, ), although not all findings have been consistent. Developmental processes may explain some inconsistent findings, with age interacting with gender to affect school connectedness.…”

Previous studies suggest that both school and community connectedness among adolescents are associated with prosocial behaviors and positive outcomes. While delinquency is associated with lack of connectedness to school and community, little research has considered how delinquency affects this relationship for adolescents living in impoverished neighborhoods. This study estimated gendered trajectories of school and community connectedness for adolescents in impoverished neighborhoods as a function of their levels of delinquency. Results showed that delinquency was negatively correlated and that age was positively correlated with school connectedness for both genders. In contrast, community connectedness increased with age for boys, but decreased with age for girls. In addition, delinquency was negatively related to community connectedness for boys, but not for girls. These findings suggest that for adolescents in impoverished neighborhoods, gender‐informed interventions to decrease delinquency could have positive effects on school and community connectedness.
