Bullied to Death

This study investigated the perceptions of adolescents concerning the relationship between chronic peer abuse and suicidal behaviour. The major thesis is that chronic peer abuse is an additional risk for adolescent suicidal behaviour. The results of the study upheld this contention and added a surprising component in that bystander perceptions supported victims' views.
