Harlow and Roberts (2010) found that bullying is predicted by the lack of the same protective factors as substance abuse. They also found that interventions that increase protective factors, such as impulse control and attachment to family, also reduce bullying victimization.
Smokowski and Kopasz (2005) reviewed the literature on bullying and interventions and concluded, “Bullying is a serious threat not only to those involved, but also to the entire school environment…” They also found that, “Bullying creates short- and long-term consequences for both the victim and the bully. Victims may suffer from low self-esteem, loneliness, depression, anxiety, absenteeism, and academic difficulties.”

i.e. bullying. Bullying in elementary school is associated with a variety of negative outcomes.
The authors discuss the potential of early interventions for reducing mental health issues and alcohol abuse in adults.
Gronna and Selvin (1999) analyzed achievement scores from 46 schools and found that after controlling for student characteristics, that school safety was significantly related to math and reading standard scores among eighth graders.
Vreeman and Carroll (2007) reviewed outcome studies from several types of bullying prevention programs. They found that programs using the “whole-school” approach and mentoring programs had the greatest impact of bullying.
