SALDARRIAGA, LINA MARÍA; BUKOWSKI, WILLIAM M e VELASQUEZ, ANA MARÍA. The Moderating Effects of Social Problem-Solving in the Relationship between Risk Factors and Peer Victimization in Colombian Early Adolescents. Rev. colomb. psicol. [online]. 2012, vol.21, n.2, pp.213-231. ISSN 0121-5469.
This study assessed the moderating effect of social problem-solving (SPS) in the association between risk factors and peer victimization in a sample of Colombian adolescents. Using structural equation modeling techniques, this study assessed the extent to which changes in victimization varied as a function of the interaction between risk factors and social problem-solving. Results showed that both aggression and avoidance were predictive of initial scores on victimization, but only avoidance was found to predict its change over time. Only a main effect of SPS was found at the beginning of the year; no moderating effects were found. Results are consistent with previous findings by confirming that avoidance and aggression are risk factors for peer victimization.
