Abstract

<p>  The present study examined the correlation between severe bullying victimization (defined as instances occurring several times a week) and victims' normative beliefs about aggression in school settings, in order to elucidate the nature of severe bullying from a typological perspective and to explore the association between various types of severe bullying victimization and normative beliefs in both retaliatory and general aggression. The present study also examined the impact of classroom disruption on these dynamics. Elementary and middle school students (N=3,980) completed a questionnaire. Analysis of their responses revealed a significant positive correlation between the students' experience with relational, physical, and verbal bullying and their belief in retaliatory aggression. Notably, the findings suggest that the students subjected to direct forms of bullying such as physical violence or verbal abuse held stronger beliefs in general aggression, especially those students who were in a disrupted class. These findings were discussed in relation to their practical implications. Strategies are proposed that are aimed at mitigating the tendency for revenge among victims of severe bullying.</p>
