As a result of the study, it was found that a very low role victimization (76%) and a high level of resilience (72%) prevail in the student environment. In the samples of boys and girls, there are statistically significant differences in the average values of the social role of the victim (t = 2.9, p ≤ 0.01), the position of the victim (t = 2.0, p ≤ 0.05), the integral indicator of victim behavior (t = 2.3, p ≤ 0.05) and general viability (t=3.4, p ≤ 0.01).
