81% of aggressive incidents are not reported to adults.
In 77% of aggressive incidents, peer bystanders did not intervene.
There was an equivalent rate of aggression among boys, 43% and girls, 42%.
Girls were both significantly more likely to be harassed than boys, and to have more attackers.
Girls harass other girls more than boys attack other boys.
Boys harass girls far more frequently than girls harass boys.
Aggression is more frequent within, rather than across, racial groups.
Students report that kids are mean mainly because they are trying to feel better about themselves and attempting to improve their social status.
I don't know anything more about this study or where it was conducted or with what age groups. If you do, would you please share the links?
