Subclaims¶

q3 i? Across 77 countries, the three-component model outperformed competing one- and two-component victimization models in goodness-of-fit, component differentiation, and discriminant validity. → Herbert W. Marsh 2023 q3 i? The test used nationally representative samples of 594,196 fifteen-year-old students from 77 countries. → Herbert W. Marsh 2023 (2)

q3 · i? · associational · r3

The authors' own substantive-methodological synergy analysis compared five structural models (one-, two-, and three-component CFA and ESEM) in PISA2018 data and reports "the superior explanatory power of the three-component model" across fit, differentiation, and discriminant validity with gender, attitudes, and well-being. No effect size is printed for the model comparison.

"We demonstrate the superior explanatory power of the three-component model—goodness-of-fit, component differentiation, and discriminant validity of the three components concerning gender differences, paradoxical anti-bullying attitudes"

Methods section: the empirical test drew on "nationally representative samples from 77 countries (594,196 fifteen-year-old students)", a two-stage sampling design with survey weights; three countries lacking victimization data were excluded.

"The PISA2018 data are based on nationally representative samples from 77 countries (594,196 fifteen-year-old students)."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) differentiates victimization components better than traditional CFA, which positively biases factor correlations — related
• Gender differences in victimization vary systematically across the physical, verbal, and relational components — related
• Well-being is more strongly related to verbal and particularly relational victimization than to physical victimization — related
• The Pro-Bully Paradox: victimization relates to weaker anti-bullying attitudes, an effect largely specific to physical victimization — related
