Psychological Medicine, 2016, 46: 1311-1320Summary: This study examined the associations between exposure to bullying victimisation and later adult psychotic symptomatology based on data from the Christchurch Health and Development Study. The authors conclude: "The association between bullying victimisation in adolescence and psychotic symptomatology in adulthood could be largely explained by childhood behavioural problems, and exposure to sexual abuse in childhood. The results suggest that bullying victimization was unlikely to have been a cause of adult psychotic symptoms, but bullying victimization remained a risk marker for these symptoms."
