    abstract = {Bullying in Indonesia is on the rise. Mocking, sneering and harassing may seem trivial and natural.
But in reality, it is slowly but surely ruins a person. Bullying is a long-standing behaviour that can threaten all
aspects of life for most children and adolescents at school, home and in their environment. One characteristic
of bullying victims is unable to resist or defend themselves. This happens because of the weak coping
strategies that affect victim&#146;s psychological condition. The purpose of this research is to understand the coping
strategy and psychological impact of bullying victim. This research utilizes qualitative descriptive study
approach. Subjects are consisted of three early adolescents who were victims of bullying. Subjects were
selected based on a survey at a school. Data are collected by using semi-structured interviews. Test validity
is done by using triangulation test from sources such as teachers, friends and parents. The results of the study
conclude that the coping strategies and psychological impacts on three subjects studied are almost identical
that they are more emotion-focused coping and problem-focused coping. The three subjects use avoidance
strategy, distancing or resignation as if by nothing happened and seeking social support. Finally, the
psychological impact of the subjects is similar in three aspects affective aspects: feelings of anger, sadness,
embarrassment, anxiety and low self-esteem, cognitive aspects: it becomes difficult to concentrate during the
learning process and decreasing academic achievements and behavioural aspects: rejected by their friends in
school because of low self esteem.}
