A comprehensive examination of theory, research, prevention and
intervention, and professional practice issues - in one source.
Teasing, shunning, and bullying can have serious detrimental
effects on both victim and perpetrator. Bullying, Victimization,
and Peer Harassment: A Handbook of Prevention and Intervention
comprehensively gathers emerging research, theory, and effective
practice on this subject into one invaluable source. This thorough
review of a wide spectrum of innovative, evidence-based practices
targets the complex problems of victimization, peer harassment, and
bullying in our schools. Interventions range from individuals and
their peers to broad, systems-level change within schools and
communities. The challenge of prevention is also explored, using
the latest studies as a practical foundation. Suggestions are
provided detailing effective strategies to make changes in the
culture within schools while offering directions for future
research and practice. Bullying, Victimization, and Peer Harassment
discusses research on current intervention programs now in place
that, until now, has never been evaluated. Several of the studies
address middle school issues and multi-ethnic populations,
including those from the United States, Canada, and Europe. Peer
