Abstract: The current study used latent profile analysis (LPA) to identify profiles of peer victimization among rural-to-urban migrant children and determine whether specific victimization profiles were associated with parent-child communication. Participants were 719 rural-to-urban migrant children in Grades 4 to 6 of three elementary schools in Beijing. Results suggested that: (1) Latent profile analyses identified four profiles: high-chronic victims (3.89%), moderate victims (11.13%), moderate-low relational victims (26.84%) and low victims (58.14%). There were significant differences in internalizing and externalizing problems across different victimization profiles; (2) Migrant children with higher levels of parent-child communication were less likely to be classified into profiles with higher frequency and more various forms of peer victimization. The current study identified four profiles that demonstrate the heterogeneity of peer victimization among rural-to-urban migrant children, as well as the protective role of parent-child communication. This study revealed distinct peer victimization patterns in a sample of migrant children and illustrated the protective role of parent-child communication among identified profiles. These findings provide significant implications for prevention and intervention strategies to reduce peer victimization among rural-to-urban migrant children.

Key words: rural-to-urban migrant children, peer victimization, parent-child communication, latent profile analysis
