Somewhat less investigated are the correlates of--and consequences associated with--this small group of persons who are simultaneously perpetrators and victims of bullying, commonly referred to as bully-victims. This article extends prior research by investigating bully-victims in a sample of serious adolescent offenders (n = 1,354) who were followed for 7 years after their adjudication for a serious juvenile offense. Analyses indicated that bully-victims had high levels of both symptomology and psychopathy as well as lower levels of temperance. Bully-victims were at increased risk of experiencing a higher number of arrests at the end of the 7-year follow-up period. Implications for future research are highlighted.
