Psychometric Properties of the CEVEO Bullying Subscales for Aggressors in School and Leisure Contexts Among Chilean Adolescents: Profiles Based on Moral Disengagement, Aggression Frequency, and Context

<b>Background:</b> Adolescent violence occurs both within and beyond the school setting. Furthermore, risk factors for aggression, such as Moral Disengagement (MD), do not operate uniformly and may be triggered in one context but not another. This highlights the need for instruments that assess aggression's manifestation across contexts to enable a more comprehensive understanding of the phenomenon. <b>Objective:</b> To assess the psychometric properties of the Bullying at School and Bullying during Leisure subscales from the Questionnaire for Assessing Peer Violence in School and Leisure Settings (CEVEO) in Chilean adolescents, and to examine differences in MD among perpetrator profiles based on both frequency and context of aggression. <b>Method:</b> Instrumental, multivariate, cross-sectional, quantitative, and correlational design. The sample comprised 864 Chilean students (M age = 15.4; SD age = 1.3). Girls represented 58% of the sample. <b>Results:</b> A 13-item unifactorial model was supported for both subscales, with good internal consistency. Scores correlated positively with MD, and boys scored higher than girls on both subscales. Three profiles were identified: (1) no high aggression; (2) high aggression in one context; and (3) high aggression in two contexts. MD increased with the number of contexts, regardless of aggression frequency. <b>Conclusions:</b> Findings provide validity evidence for the CEVEO bullying subscales in Chilean adolescents, based on their internal structure, associations with external variables, and reliability. The instrument is useful for detecting violence across settings and identifying profiles based on the contextual extent of aggression.
