Implication

Observational analysis shows verbal victimization increases stress in adolescents, indicating important mental health implications.

Key Points

  • Verbal victimization uniquely increases stress levels among late adolescents transitioning to university.
  • High levels of stress were significantly associated with types of peer victimization, particularly verbal (β = .239; p < .001).
  • Hierarchical linear regression was utilized to analyze relationships between victimization types and stress levels.
  • Findings highlight the need for targeted interventions to support students at risk of stress due to past victimization.
