Peer victimization refers to the negative actions, behaviors, or experiences that individuals may face from their peers, such as bullying, harassment, or exclusion. This research area focuses on understanding the causes, consequences, and ways to prevent or intervene in peer victimization among children, adolescents, and even adults. Studies in this field often explore the psychological, social, and emotional impact of being a victim of peer aggression, as well as the role of individual, peer group, and societal factors in perpetuating or reducing victimization. Researchers also investigate strategies and programs aimed at creating a safer and more inclusive social environment for individuals to prevent and address peer victimization effectively.
