Abstract
Abstract: Recent scholarship on bullying shows that students encounter this form of violence regularly, and it is part of a larger public health concern facing young people today. The prevalence of bullying is even more pronounced for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) students. Secondary data analysis of the 2021 Adolescent Behaviors and Experiences Survey (ABES) was used to explore some of the predictors of reports of bullying for queer high school students (N=1,118). Logistic regression modeling reveals that negative experiences like being treated unfairly, feeling sad, suicidal thoughts, having a hard time concentrating and being economically vulnerable each increase the odds for queer students to report being bullied. Interestingly, for queer female students of color, race may seem to decrease the odds of reporting a bullying incident, compared to their White classmates. A critical feminist framework and a social-ecological perspective is used to contextualize findings and advance interventions of care and affirmation.
