| description | School violence among peers has serious consequences for the victims. Victimization can be direct, through physical and verbal aggression, and relational, through exclusion and social rejection. The objective of this study wasto analyze the psychometric properties of the Peer School Victimization Scale (VE-I), which consists of 11 items related to different forms of victimization. 1389 adolescents (50.45% boys) ranging from 11 to 15 years old (M = 13.37, SD = 1.23) participated in this study. The structure of the scale was analyzed by means of exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis using two different subsamples. The results show the existence of three factors (physical victimization, verbal victimization and relational victimization), with reliability coefficients higher than ? = .70 and negative correlations with social self-concept and life satisfaction. The analyzed scale has adequate psychometric properties and can be useful in research and interventionsabout this topic. |

La violencia escolar entre iguales tiene graves consecuencias para las víctimas. La victimización puede ser directa, mediante agresiones físicas y verbales, y relacional mediante exclusión y rechazo social. El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar las propiedades psicométricas de la escala de Victimización Escolar entre Iguales (VE-I) que consta de 11 ítems relativos a diferentes formas de victimización. En este estudio participaron 1389 adolescentes (50.45% varones), de entre 11 y 15 años (M = 13.37, DE = 1.23). La estructura de la escala fue analizada mediante análisis factorial exploratorio y análisis factorial confirmatorio, por lo que se utilizaron dos submuestras diferentes. Los resultados constatan la existencia de tres factores (victimización física, victimización verbal y victimización relacional), con coeficientes de confiabilidad superiores a α = .70 y correlaciones negativas con autoconcepto social y satisfacción con la vida. La escala analizada tiene adecuadas propiedades psicométricas y puede ser útil en investigaciones e intervenciones sobre esta temática.
