Cultivating youth resilience to prevent bullying and cyberbullying victimization—
Sameet Hinduja, Justin W Patchin
- In an effort to better prevent and respond to bullying and cyberbullying, schools are
recognizing a need to focus on positive youth development. One often-neglected
developmental construct in this rubric is resilience, which can help students successfully
respond to the variety of challenges they face. Enhancing this internal competency can
complement the ever-present efforts of schools as they work to create a safe and
supportive learning environment by shaping the external environment around the child.
Based on a national sample of 1204 American youth between the ages of 12 and 17, we
explore the relationship between resilience and experience with bullying and
cyberbullying. We also examine whether resilient youth who were bullied (at school and
online) were less likely to be significantly impacted at school. Results show resilience is a
potent protective factor, both in preventing experience with bullying and mitigating its
effect. Implications for school and community-based interventions are offered

o Are there individual differences that calls for students to react in certain manners
when bullied? Can the protective factor be idenditifed?
o There has been great progess, but not able to drastically lower the frequency of
peer aggression in a young age—what helps some to overocome and some
become victims
