Largely affecting schoolaged children and teenagers, the health effects of bullying may be long lasting. Links have been established between bullying and physical and psychological health issues, violent behavior, alcoholism and substance abuse, sleeping problems, and even suicide (Britt, 2001; Fekkes et al., 2004; Hershberger & D’Augelli, 1995; Menard, 2002; Ttofi & Farrington, 2008; Van der Wal et al., 2003). This research brief provides a summary of results from a recent study designed to examine the relationship between bullying and physical and mental health, health care access and utilization, and health risk behaviors. The full study will be published in a special issue of Justice Quarterly, titled “Criminology, Criminal Justice, and Public Health Studies.” Details: Huntsville, TX: Crime Victims' Institute, College of Criminal Justice, Sam Houston State University, 2012. 4p.
