Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Recent studies have demonstrated that, rather than serving as safe havens from crime, schools are in fact places where the risk of certain types of victimization is elevated (G. Gottfredson et al., 2005). While a number of studies have considered the role of the school environment in perpetuating both student and teacher victimization, to date, few have attempted to draw a sound theoretical link between two. The present study attempts to bridge this gap by adopting a routine activities approach to explain student victimization. Using data from the National Study of Delinquency Prevention in Schools, the present analysis uses multilevel modeling techniques to test the hypothesis that schools with higher levels of guardianship—as measured by a number of school climate factors—will experience lower levels of student victimization. The policy implications of these findings will be discussed.
