The third briefing note, focuses on the issue of cyberbullying and the data Nathalie Noret and I collated on text and e-mail bullying across five years.
Briefing Note 4: Why Do Kids Bully Others?
This briefing note arises out of a study conducted with 185 self-identified ‘bullies’ who answered questions about why they bullied other children and young people.
Briefing Note 5: Kids of Same-Sex Couples
This final note from the first series of briefings focuses on a group of 18 young people who were raised by same-sex couples (women) and how they compare in terms of psychological functioning and social support to a matched group of 18 young people raised be opposite-sex couples.
