Bullying can have longlasting effects but particularlywhen it begin in adolescence (青春期) the researchers say.People subjected to either oral or physical bullying are known to be at greater risk fordeveloping depression, anxiety disorders or to behave violently. But not everyone react inthis way. Children bullied for the first time before they hit adolescence seem to get overit, but those who are victimized for the first time late on in adolescence seem to becomemore aggressive or are more likely to turn to drinking as a means of coping. These arethe conclusions of psychologit Matthew Newman and his colleagues from the Universityof Texas at Austin, U.S.The team gave questionnaires to nearly 1,500 college students regarding theirexperience of physical and psychological bullying before adolescence - before highschool - and in late adolescence - at high schoo. They assessed mood and mentalstate judging by signs of anxiety or depression,such as sleeplessnes. The group was alsoquestioned about how they would react to certain challenges such as being embarrassedor provoked.People who were bullied all revealed slightly higher levels of stress. But while thosebullied earier in life seemed to respond normally to provocation, people bullied for thefirst time late in adolescence are more withdrawn and sensitive to violence.The best solution was strong social support whether from friends, family or school.Those with no one to share their problems with suffered the mos.So perhap it i best not to shelter children completely from bullying early on, suggestsNewman. “They may get stressed, but unhealthy coping really jumps out when they arebullied for the frsttime later on." The effects are likely to be related to the developingstress hormone system, which matures during adolescence, he concludes.
