abstract="Using data from Korean-American residents (N = 343) in subsidized senior housing in the Los Angeles area, we examined the effect of peer bullying on mental health. About 18% of the sample had been a target of bullying, and over 31% had witnessed someone being bullied. Being a target of bullying was a significant predictor for both depressive symptoms and anxiety, whereas witnessing other residents being bullied was a significant predictor for anxiety only. <br><br>FINDINGS shed light on the adverse mental health impacts of peer bullying among ethnic minority older residents in senior housing.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
