Negative relationships among peers, such as bullying, are risk factors for children’s life satisfaction (LS). This is due to their negative impact on youth development over time. LS refers to the evaluation people make of their lives and overall quality of life. Within the school context, there are several important dimensions to the development of LS among adolescents, such as peer relationships and also school climate. School satisfaction and school bonding are two dimensions of school climate which can affect the occurrence of bullying during the adolescence. Although there has been substantial research on children’s LS, little research has been done in South America using longitudinal data to examine the importance of school variables that influence bullying and LS. Thus, the purpose of the study is to examine the long-term effect of school satisfaction, bonding, and bullying on adolescent LS one year after bullying victimization. Structural equation modeling was used on a sample of 555 Chilean adolescents with a mean age of 13.5 years old of which 42.9% are females. School satisfaction was negatively related to bullying perpetration, but not to bullying victimization. Conversely, school bonding was negatively associated with bullying victimization, but not with bullying perpetration. Lastly, bullying victimization was associated with lower levels of LS one year after the experience, even when controlling for age and gender. Bullying perpetration had no effect on LS. These results highlight the importance of school variables and peer relationships for adolescent LS development over time and reinforce the importance of preventative initiatives in schools.

同伴之间的负面关系（例如欺凌）是儿童生活满意度（LS）的风险因素。这是由于它们随着时间的推移对青年的发展产生了负面影响。LS是指人们对生活和整体生活质量的评价。在学校范围内，青少年学习能力发展有几个重要方面，例如同伴关系和学校氛围。学校满意度和学校联系是学校氛围的两个维度，可影响青春期欺凌的发生。尽管已经对儿童的LS进行了大量研究，但在南美，很少使用纵向数据来研究影响欺凌和LS的学校变量的重要性的研究。因此，该研究的目的是研究欺凌受害一年后，学校满意度，感情纽带和欺凌对青少年LS的长期影响。对555名智利平均年龄为13.5岁的智利青少年进行了结构方程建模，其中女性为42.9％。学校的满意度与欺负行为负相关，但与欺负受害者无关。相反，学校联系与欺负受害负相关，但与欺负行为无负相关。最后，即使在控制年龄和性别的情况下，欺凌受害也与经历一年后的LS水平降低有关。欺凌行为对LS没有影响。
