Abstract
The absence of agreement on the measurement of bullying victimization hinders bullying identification and intervention. There is not empirical data about the duration of bullying victimization. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 404 students, 23.48% of total students of a Spanish district. Self-perceived duration of bullying was evaluated considering two instrument structures: a general bullying question and multiple specific bullying questions. The mean of bullying victimization was 2 years in the specific questions and 3 years in the general question. Both measurement structures coincided in the classification of 90% of the cases, but the specific bullying victimization questions reported more victims. Results have implications in the time-frame assumed to measure bullying victimization and start to fill a gap in the literature.
