Perceptions of the Frequency and Importance of Social Support by Students Classified as Victims, Bullies, and Bully/Victims in an Urban Middle School (2003, background): “Although some previous work has begun to examine the value students place on socially supportive behaviors (importance ratings; Demaray & Elliott, 2001; Demaray & Malecki, 2003), no previous work has examined importance ratings of social support as related to bullying or being victimized.”
Social Support as a Moderator Between Victimization and Internalizing–Externalizing Distress From Bullying (2007, background): “Yet, other researchers have found that merely the awareness of support availability is enough to warrant an ameliorating effect (Demaray & Malecki, 2003b; Malecki & Demaray, 2002).”
The Protective Role of Friendships in Overtly and Relationally Victimized Boys and Girls (2007, background): “To begin, Demaray and Malecki (2003) suggested that girls might be better than boys at recognizing and valuing support that comes from those who are close to them.”
