Abstract: This study investigated the differences in bullying and victimization among a sample of primary school students. The study sample consisted of 629 students in grades from 7th to 10th, their ages ranged from 12-17 years (mean = 14.49, standard deviation = 1.17). They were selected from four public schools, two for males and two for females. Two scales were used, one for bullying and the other for victimization. Results of the study revealed that males reported bullying their peers significantly more than females. Likewise, males reported more victimization than females. Grade level differences emerged with 7th and 8th graders indicating significantly more victimization than 9th and 10th graders. Directions for future research are provided.
