Peer Victimization Scale Test - Symptoms and Signs
This brief self-report measure assesses exposure to peer bullying and related victimization experiences in school-aged populations. The Peer Victimization Scale is designed to support systematic description of victimization patterns for research and program evaluation rather than serving as a stand-alone diagnostic tool.
The instrument includes 16 items and typically requires about 3 minutes to complete. Items ask respondents to rate the frequency of specific experiences that commonly reflect physical, verbal, relational/social, and property-related victimization. The Peer Victimization Scale may be used to quantify victimization domains, monitor change over time, and characterize samples in clinical, school, or community-based studies.
