Protective Behaviors of Student Victims of Bullying: A Rare Events Analysis of the 2009 School Crime Supplement to the National Crime Victimization Survey

Metadata Updated: March 12, 2025

This study explored whether bullied students (ages 12 through 18, in grades 6 through 12, enrolled during the current school year, and not homeschooled) engage in specific protective behaviors that inhibit learning, put other students' safety at risk, or foster a negative school climate. It also explored whether bullied students' behaviors varied by the type of bullying (direct, verbal, indirect, or cyber) endured. The researchers conducted secondary analyses of the NATIONAL CRIME VICTIMIZATION SURVEY: SCHOOL CRIME SUPPLEMENT, 2009 (ICPSR 28201), using rare events logistic regression, a technique that enables examination of the effects of several independent variables on a dichotomous dependent variable. The dataset produced contains a total of 65 variables, including 18 variables describing direct, verbal, indirect, and cyber bullying behaviors, 4 variables describing response behaviors by those bullied, and 28 variables describing student and school characteristics.
