abstract="Although numerous studies have explored youth formal and informal help-seeking, including reporting to the police and disclosing victimization experiences to others, there has been little discussion in how other experiences with violence, such as witnessing and perpetrating violence, may impact responses to victimization. The current study uses multinomial probit analyses to explore how multiple victimizations, violent behavior, and witnessing violence impact youth decisions to call the police, report to school authorities, or informally disclose their victimization. The results suggest that, accounting for alternative responses to victimization, reporting to the police is inhibited by the respondent's violent background and witnessing violence.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
