Description

This study examined the prevalence of bullying behaviors from a sample of adolescents presenting for an evidence-based social skills program, the PEERS intervention, who tested high on an autism screening questionnaire as well as on an attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) screening questionnaire. Results suggest adolescents high on hyperactivity and impulsivity exhibit more bullying behaviors than adolescents only scoring high on the autism-screening questionnaire.
