A follow-up investigation studied bullying among 1,268 Finnish children aged 8 and 12 and measured the persistence of this behavior. Males outnumbered females at both time points among bullies, bully-victims, and victims. Children who were bully-victims were most commonly found to be involved in bullying 4 years later.
