American Muslim Youth and Psychosocial Risk for Bullying: An Exploratory Study
Nadia S. Ansary; Kristian M. Gardner
International Journal of Bullying Prevention, v6 n2 p83-100 2024
This exploratory study examined psychosocial correlates of bullying within a sample of American Muslim youth between the ages of 12 and 18 (n = 86; M[subscript age] = 13.47, SD[subscript age] = 1.62; 64% female). Hierarchical regressions were used to examine the associations between atypicality, hyperactivity, somatization, social stress, and bullying while person-based analyses were used to explore the extent to which the coalescence of psychosocial challenges was associated with greater bullying. Overall, the results of both variable- and person-based analyses converged on the same finding--American Muslim youth exhibiting high levels of psychosocial distress across different dimensions also experienced the highest rates of bullying. Recommendations for strengthening school-based anti-bullying approaches to protect Muslim targets are discussed.
