Latent profiles of offline/cyber bullying experiences among Korean students and its relationship with peer conformity

•Low-, high-, online-, and offline-risk latent groups were derived.•Perpetration and victimization occurred for all latent risk groups.•All other groups reported more antisocial peer conformity than the low-risk group.•Bullying prevention programs should address the social context of peer relationships. Today’s digital native adolescents are at risk of experiencing bullying not only in traditional offline contexts but also in online social contexts. Yet, little is known about the joint occurrence of offline perpetration and victimization, as well as online perpetration and victimization in early adolescence, despite its potential for providing important implications for areas of intervention. The current study examined 375 adolescents (girls = 52.5%, age range = 10–11 years old) in Korea and identified four unique groups such as high-, online-, offline-, and low-risk groups, using 42 items measuring offline and online perpetration and victimization, through latent profile analysis. Logistic regression showed that antisocial peer conformity predicted membership in the high- (AOR = 2.46, p
