The study explores the relations between family dimensions, the usual exposureto violent television stimuli, bullying behavior and victimization. In particular, thetelevision violence has been examined as a possible moderator or mediator of the associationsbetween family dimensions (Olson, 1993), the quality of the parent-child communication,and the bully, victim, and bully-victim roles. Participants were 433 youngsters,aged 10-14 (51.96% boys). A peer-rating scale and self-report questionnaires assessedbullying behavior, the victimization, the family dimensions, and the quality ofthe parent-child communication. Three television programs usually watched by participantswere valued in order to assess the mean level of violence (Eron, 1982). The bullyrole was associated to the television violence for children with families low in cohesionand high in the adaptability. The television violence and the quality of the father-childcommunication interacted in predicting a higher probability to be a victim, rather thanto be non-involved in bullying. Overall, the relations between the exposure to violenttelevision and involvement in bullying seem to be adequately explored only when thefamily dimensions are taken into account.
