“…In terms of risky behaviors, our results also show that adolescents who engaged in sexual relations had a higher chance of becoming a victim of violence, and these results are consistent with previous findings [47,48]. Importantly, adolescent sexual orientation differentially affected adolescents’ risk of being a victim of violence.…”

“…Indeed, previous studies have found that non-heterosexual youth are more susceptible to victimization compared to heterosexual youth [49], with this risk being even higher for girls than boys [47,50]. Though the risks were not as high as they were for non-heterosexual youth, sexually active heterosexual youth were nonetheless still at an increased risk of about eight-fold for victimization compared to students who were not sexually active, which is consistent with previous findings [48]. …”

We examined the risk factors for and psychological problems associated with violence victimization in a nationwide representative sample of Korean adolescents. Data from the 2016 Korean Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey was used. Participants were asked about their experience of being a victim of violence that required medical treatment during the past 12 months, as well as their perceived health, happiness, sleep satisfaction, stress, depressed mood, and suicidality. The 12-month prevalence of violence victimization requiring medical treatment was 2.4%. The results indicated that adolescents were at an increased risk for violence victimization if they were male, older, had parents of a foreign nationality, did not reside with their family, worked part time, resided in small cities or rural areas, were high or low in socioeconomic status (SES), exhibited high or low levels of academic performance, used alcohol or tobacco, and were sexually active. In addition, while violence victimization was negatively associated with perceived health and happiness, it was positively associated with perceived stress, depressed mood, and suicidality. The results indicate that a social disadvantage, involvement in risky behavior, and psychological problems are associated with violence victimization. Effective violence prevention efforts should thus target high-risk groups, and clinical attention is needed to address the psychological costs associated with violence victimization.

Weapon carrying has detrimental effects for perpetrators and victims alike. It is therefore imperative that research efforts are invested into establishing those contextual factors that are associated with this antisocial behavior. This systematic and meta-analytic review investigates the association of weapon carrying with bullying perpetration and victimization inside and outside the school context. Results on pure bullies, pure victims and bully-victims are also presented. Further to extensive searches, across 20 databases and 46 journals, and careful screening of reports, in line with pre-established methodological criteria, a total of 35 manuscripts are included in the meta-analysis. Narrative results based on longitudinal studies are also presented but not meta-analyzed given the variability in study characteristics and the small number of studies. Weapon carrying is significantly associated with both bullying perpetration (adjusted OR = 2.64; p <.001) and victimization (adjusted OR = 1.58; p <. 05). Effect sizes are larger when looking at discrete categories of pure bullies (adjusted OR = 3.24; p < 0.01), pure victims (adjusted OR = 1.79; p < 0.05) and bully-victims (adjusted OR =5.66; p < .001) when compared with non-involved school children. Subgroup analyses suggest that pure victims (Q= 6.77; p < .01) and bully-victims (Q = 8.01; p < .01) are significantly more likely to carry a weapon inside than outside the school, thus rendering support to the 'vulnerability/selfprotection' hypothesis. Pure bullies have the same odds of carrying a weapon inside and outside the school context (Q= 0.60; p = .44), supporting a persistent antisocial personality theoretical framework. Implications for policy and practice arising from our results are discussed.

“…Positive association between suffering bullying and use of alcohol was also found in McGee, Valentine, Schulte and Brown's (2011) research. Similarly, it has been identified among students from Peru (Romaní & Gutiérrez, 2010) and adolescents residing in the South of Brazil (Silva et al, 2012) positive association between use of licit and illicit substances and victimization. Suffering bullying is also positively associated with the use of marijuana among students from zambia (Siziya et al, 2013) and with cigarette and alcohol use among Italian pupils (Vieno, Gini, & Santinello, 2011).…”

Cross-sectional study with probabilistic sample of 3,547 adolescents aged from 12 to 17 years old, 54.2% girls, from southern Brazilian schools that analysed the association between exposure to violence and substance use. Gender and age distribution in general population were controlled and sample proportions were assured. A self report measure was used to evaluate sociodemographic conditions, violence, substance use, psychiatric disorders, school performance, parental practices and relationship with parents and teachers. Descriptive analysis were hold, prevalence ratio for substance use were estimated by Poisson Regression, preceded by control for design effect by school variable. The analysis were adjusted by gender, alcohol and tobacco use by the parents and psychiatric disorders. When adjusting also for the use of other substances (for example: cocaine, crack), the association remained only for tobacco and alcohol. Prevalence substance use found are similar to national levels and there are evidences of significant and strong association of substance use and exposure to violence at school, mainly for alcohol and tobacco. It is recommended that public policies to improve school climate and school context should focus on school staff skills and competencies to prevent school violence and licit or illicit substance use by Brazilian adolescents. Keywords: drugs, school health, adolescence.
