Game-Based Promotion of Assertiveness to Mitigate the Effects of Bullying in High School Students: Development and Evaluation Study

The person most affected by bullying is the one who receives the aggressive acts, that is, the recipient. As a consequence of bullying, those who are bullied may develop depression, drop out of school, or commit suicide [2,17,24].

Going Viral: Researching Safely on Social Media

As such, communication with and harassment of researchers on the web can move rapidly from public to private spaces, with a suite of personal and professional consequences that are in line with those of web-based bullying and trolling more broadly. In this context of new risks and opportunities, research ethics processes, the literature, and guidelines are beginning to address the specific concerns associated with research participant safety and well-being in web-based and social media research.

Effects of ACT Out! Social Issue Theater on Social-Emotional Competence and Bullying in Youth and Adolescents: Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial

Effects of ACT Out! Social Issue Theater on Social-Emotional Competence and Bullying in Youth and Adolescents: Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial

Further, bullying victimization appears likely to cause notable increases in anxiety and depression among those victimized [12]. A recent meta-analysis of traditional bullying identified 65 school-based bullying prevention programs, but only 8 had been evaluated more than once [13]. In general, such programs tend to be slightly more effective in reducing bullying perpetration and less effective in reducing victimization [14].

Mobile Apps for the Personal Safety of At-Risk Children and Youth: Scoping Review

In addition to harm from older adults, children and youth are also at risk from their peers through incidents such as dating violence, sexual violence, and bullying [10,17,18]. A Youth Risk Behavior Survey conducted in 2019 among high school students in the United States revealed that 25% of students reported bullying victimization and approximately 12% reported dating violence (physical or sexual) [10].

Effects of the ACT OUT! Social Issue Theater Program on Social-Emotional Competence and Bullying in Youth and Adolescents: Protocol for a Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial

Importantly, these positive outcomes appear in some cases to extend to serious school-related behavioral issues, such as bullying. Bullying is relatively ubiquitous in US schools. The prevalence of school bullying reported in a 2014 meta-analysis of 80 studies that included data on youth aged 12-18 years was 35% for traditional bullying and 15% for cyberbullying [9].

Self-Harm, Suicidal Behaviours, and Cyberbullying in Children and Young People: Systematic Review

Self-Harm, Suicidal Behaviours, and Cyberbullying in Children and Young People: Systematic Review

Bullying is an aggressive, intentional act carried out by a group or an individual repeatedly and over time against a victim who cannot easily defend himself or herself. Traditionally, bullying could be direct—physical, verbal, or relational (eg, social exclusion)— or indirect (eg, rumor spreading) [1]. However, with the advent of electronic communication (eg, social media and instant messaging) via the internet and mobile phones, cyberbullying has emerged.

Effectiveness of a Bullying Intervention (Be-Prox) in Norwegian Early Childhood and Education Care Centers: Protocol for a Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial

According to the Norwegian Kindergarten Act (sections 41-43), Norwegian early childhood education and care centers (ECECs) should work systematically to prevent bullying and social exclusion, including adopting a zero-tolerance for violations, such as exclusion, bullying, violence, discrimination, and harassments [1]. Intentionally exposing other children to negative behavior is regarded as aggressive behavior [2,3].

Opportunity, Challenge, or Both? Managing Adolescent Socioemotional and Mental Health During Web-Based Learning

The social pressure of school was relieved for some students who experienced regular bullying and microaggressions prior to the enforcement of web-based learning, while the high-achieving students experienced less social reinforcement and a lower sense of belonging [14]. However, for other students, the transition to web-based schooling resulted in the loss of their only safe place away from the troubles and trauma at home [15].
