摘要：Bullying is defined as repetitive or long-term exposure of the child to negative behaviors of other child or children (Olweus, 1998). Data concerning this problem in our country is still very rare. The aim of this research was to see which are the characteristics of children who are victims of bullying, and are there differences between the two groups of victims – passive and provocative. The measure used in the research was Questionnaire of school violence (U[N – 2003) which was developed for a bigger research done by the Center for child protection in Zagreb. Participants in research were children aged 10 – 14 (N= 1058) who were victims of bullying. The results show that there is no difference in the number of boys and girls in the group of passive victims but the provocative victims are more often boys. Between younger children there is no difference in the number of passive and provocative victims but in higher grades (older children) there are more provocative victims. Provocative victims feel worse in school, but not less accepted than passive victims. There are significant differences in the way in which these two groups of children deal with violence towards them. Provocative victims use significantly less successful and more socially inappropriate strategies to protect themselves from bullying. Provocative victims are more likely to react aggressively to violence or to keep it to themselves while passive victims more often ask for the help and protection of adults. The results show that it is important to keep in mind the differences between these two groups of children when creating prevention and intervention programs.
