A substantive number of children and adolescents are bullied by their peers, with serious risks for the victims' emotional, behavioral, physical, and academic adjustment. However, while the immediate and short-term consequences of peer victimization in childhood and adolescence are very well documented, knowledge about the potential long-term consequences for victims' functioning once they reach adulthood is only slowly emerging. Based on prospective, longitudinal data from different countries, the 4 papers in this special section investigate the association between peer victimization suffered in childhood and adolescence and victims' developmental outcomes in late adolescence/early adulthood. This introduction highlights the major findings of each paper and discusses the implications for future research.
大量的儿童和青少年受到同伴的欺凌，这给受害者的情绪、行为、身体和学业适应带来严重风险。然而，虽然儿童和青少年时期同伴侵害的直接和短期后果已有充分记录，但关于受害者成年后功能的潜在长期后果的知识才刚刚开始出现。基于来自不同国家的前瞻性纵向数据，本期特刊中的 4 篇论文研究了儿童和青少年时期遭受同伴欺凌与受害者在青少年晚期/成年早期的发展结果之间的关联。本文介绍突出了每篇论文的主要发现，并讨论了对未来研究的意义。
