chosen: Bullies psychologically manipulate people into submission by employing the strategy of "incremental aggression". This strategy involves repeatedly increasing the level of harm or abuse inflicted until the victim eventually submits or succumbs to fear. This is achieved by gradually increasing the aggression, either by intensifying verbal abuse, physical assault or both, over a period of time. This type of bullying behavior can be extremely effective due to the victim's inability to cope with the continually increasing intimidation and fear. The bully may also use "gossip" and the spreading of false rumors about the victim to discourage other people from supporting or befriending the victim. This further isolates the victim and further strengthens the bully’s grip of control.  Additionally, emotional manipulation can also be used, which includes threats, verbal abuse, social exclusion, and physical harm, to convince the victim to submit to the bully's demands.
