Victimization is associated with negative social, emotional, educational, behavioral, and psychological short term and long-term outcomes (Hawker & Boulton, 2000; Swearer, Grills, Haye, & Cary 2004). National survey research suggests that about 20% of youth ages 12 to 18 report being victimized at school, with school being the most common place for victimization to occur (Musu, Zhang, Wang, Khang, & Ouderkerk, 2019). Rates of prevalence tend to increase as students transition from elementary to middle school (Dinkes, Kemp, Baum, & Snyder, 2009). There has been limited research that closely examines the school-based factors that may be associated with the increase in victimization as students transition to middle school. This study utilized data collected as a part of a national study of youth development to explore victimization and associated factors during the later elementary years. A generalized linear mixed model examined the stability of the victim role in from third to sixth grade. A McNemar’s test compared victimization prevalence in grades five and six. A binary logistic regression explored the predictive role of school-based factors on victimization in the sixth grade. Results suggest role instability from grades three to six, a non-significant difference in overall victimization for grades five and six, and the importance of teacher-focused factors in predicting victimization in sixth grade. 2020-08-04 English text Kent State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1594745288709797 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1594745288709797 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
