Debra Hernandez Jozefowicz-Simbeni, assistant professor in the WSU School of Social work, is quoted in an article about a new video game called "Bully," in which the hero is a troubled middle school student who gives swirlies and beats classmates, and even teachers. Jozefowicz-Simbeni recommends against buying the game for kids. "We know that in terms of school violence, and school shootings in particular, one of the main factors that contributed to the school violence was bullying. We know that media has an effect on kids across the board," she says.
