Abstract EN
This study aims to explore the relationship between bullying victimization in childhood and the development of subsequent social anxiety and anti- social practices, in light of five demographic variables (gender, social economic status, parental status, school achievement and social isolation).
A sample of 400 participants, with ages between 15- 18 years, was recruited for the study.
The sample was taken from three different regions in Occupied Palestine (Zemmer, Jatt and Baqa), and all participants were only Arabs.
The Bullying- Victimization Scale, Social Anxiety Scale, and Anti- Social Practices Scale were administered.
The researchers used: Means and Standard Deviations, Pearson Correlation Coefficient, and Multiple Linear Regression Analysis.
The results showed the following: There is a higher level of anti-social practices and social anxiety among victims of bullying, when compared with non-victims.
There is a significant positive correlation between bullying victimization in childhood and the development of subsequent anti-social practices and social anxiety.
Bullying victimization in childhood has higher prediction rates of anti-social practices, when compared with social anxiety.
