Abstract

A novel predictor of bullying may be underlying regional weather conditions (i.e., climate). Bullying data support the CLASH model of aggression by suggesting that climate may moderate the forms and severity of bullying, as well as predict its prevalence across countries. Furthermore, bullying data also suggest that the CLASH model may apply to forms of aggression beyond reactive aggression.
