Supplementary notes
Figures reflect the number of cases in which the victim perceived an act as bullying. The source defines "bullying" as the act of a student inflicting psychological or physical harm on another student enrolled at the same school. The act of bullying can happen inside or outside of school, which includes bullying over the internet as well.
Figures may not add up to 100 percent due to rounding by the source.
