مسائل متنوع در قربانی کردن خشونت آمیز در اوایل نوجوانی

Despite a significant increase in research on victimization, limited studies explored similarities/differences in correlates across different pathways of violent victimization, such as onset, repeat and discontinuation of victimization. The current study examines factors distinguishing these pathways from non-victimization using a South Korean adolescent sample. The findings show significant differences in most variables between onset/repeat victimization and non-victimization. There appear similarities and differences in factors discriminating onset/repeat victimization from non-victimization. In contrast, prior interpersonal misbehavior is the only factor which differentiates discontinuation of victimization from non-victimization. Implications of the findings are discussed.
