Abstract
We explored the factors that influence youth reporting bias-motivated victimization, both violent and non-violent. Data from 383 youth (ages 12-21) recruited from 3 cities in the United States indicated that not reporting bias-motivated victimization is associated with older age, low social support, and verbal victimization.
