Abstract | The present study is a preliminary investigation of the potential mediating role in the relationship between levels of victimization and students' adjustment for a sample of urban, predominantly Latino middle school students. A sample of 142 sixth through eighth grade students completed self-report measures including: (a) the Child and Adolescent Social Support Scale, (b) the Behavior Assessment System for Children, Self Report of Personality, and (c) a victim questionnaire developed for the current study. The current study found evidence that social support played a mediating role in the relationship between victimization and adjustment. Future research should continue to investigate the nature of this potential mediation and identify relevant intervention strategies to capitalize on the role of social support for children and adolescents who are victims of bullying in schools.
