%X The aim of this investigation was not only to identify the prevalence of bullying behavior whithin a group of teenagers from primary and secondary education, but to establish relationships between the type of actor (perpetrator, victim, witness and perpetrator-victim) with gender, age and the level of educational training as well. 120 students were evaluated in a public educational institution by a correlational design, by using a questionnaire for the detection of violence prepared by the Ombudsman of Spain. The data were analyzed with SPSS 17.0 using the chi-square (x2) and the Spearman correlation coefficients. The prevalence of abuse was 69,2%, mainly verbal and social forms of violence. It stands out the direct and indirect physical abuse perpetrated by women and a large number of students with mixed role of aggression and victimization. Gender and age did not show relationships with bullying, but abusive behavior is significantly associated to the training level.
