Vad påverkar vuxna observatörers intention att ingripa vid arbetsplatsmobbning?Molinder, Camilla, Andersson, Lisa January 2013 (has links)
Arbetsplatsmobbning har omfattande konsekvenser för individer i arbetslivet och samhället. Observatören har en viktig roll i arbetet mot mobbning, då dennes ingripande kan influera andra att göra detsamma. Denna studie undersökte om observatörens kön, locus of control och erfarenhet av observerad mobbning har en påverkan på intentionen att ingripa vid en mobbningssituation. Detta prövades utifrån sex hypoteser och frågeställningen hur relationen ser ut mellan ovangivna variabler i förhållandet till intentionen att ingripa vid mobbning. 165 individer i arbetslivet, varav 114 kvinnor, besvarade en enkät vilken innehöll Rotters The internal-external scale, en justerad Negative Acts Questionnaire-Revised och ett instrument inspirerat av Hektner och Swensons påstående om intentionen att ingripa. Materialet anlyserades med hjälp av tvåvägs-ANOVA och Pearsons korrelationskoefficient. Studiens resultat var att erfarenhet av observerad mobbning, både enskilt och i kombination med kön och locus of control, påverkar intentionen att ingripa. Kön och locus of control visade inte på signifikanta huvudeffekter.

Teachers' and Principals' Perceptions of Contexts and Conditions that Maintain Bullying in Elementary SchoolsGhaly-Calafati, Tina 07 January 2014 (has links)
ABSTRACT
Although extensive research has been conducted on bullying, few studies have explored factors that elicit, impact, and maintain the dynamics of bullying from the perspectives of teachers and principals. The purpose of this study was to understand the complex nature of bullying through exploring the ecological risk factors that allow this alarming phenomenon to flourish. The influence of factors at the microsystem, mesosystem, exosystem, and macrosystem on the dynamic interaction between the bully and the victim is explained. Another goal of this research was to capture the complexity and multidimensionality of the teacher’s role in bullying prevention and intervention. The study offers the first comprehensive analysis of the ecological and contextual variables that interact to provide fertile grounds for bullying. Detailed information about principals’ and teachers’ perceptions of bullying experiences was gathered through 8 in-depth focus groups for teachers and 10 interviews with principals. Qualitative analyses of the data led to the emergence of overarching themes and related subthemes. Bronfenbrenner’s ecological model (1979 ) was used to provide a conceptual and comprehensive framework that addressed the multifaceted variables. The finding indicated that a complex interrelation of variables was found to be central to victimization. The incidence of bullying was found to be directly influenced by individual traits as well as all the other ecological systems. Among the most salient findings was the influence of the peer ecology on bullying as a group phenomenon. The etiology of bullying as a manifestation of much deeper problems at the bully level was among the new findings. The impact of video games and television reality shows on bullying behaviour was also identified. The findings emphasized the significance of the teacher personality, positive teacher-student relationship, empathy, and training in classroom management for efficacy in addressing bullying prevention and intervention. Finally, the study offers recommendations for teacher training institutions.

How do teachers and learners in one Durban primary school understand and cope with bullying?Done, Thyananthy. January 2002 (has links)
There are evidently high incidences of bullying among learners in schools.
The problem is that victims and perpetrators, as well as teachers do not
understand what constitutes bullying and are unable to take appropriate
action when it occurs. Because of the poor understanding of bullying,
incidences remain unreported, and if they are, teachers are unable to deal
with them effectively.
This study aimed to examine the teacher's and learner' s understanding of
bullying and its prevalence in a Durban Primary School, and how they cope
with bullying incidents. It investigated the different forms that are commonly
found among the boys and girls. Because victims of bullying tend to be boys
more than girls and the perpetrators boys, gender socialization theories
(Connell, 1996; Fitzclarence 1995) were used to analyse the ways in which
the boys and girls understand and cope with bullying. Particular attention
was given to the experiences of the grade 7 learners.
The study utilised a descriptive survey design, in which qualitative
methodologies were used to address the identified research questions. Data
was collected through observations, questionnaires, unstructured interviews
and conversations.
The major findings confirmed that bullying is a problem at the Durban
primary school. Firstly boys and girls experience different forms of bullying.
Girls experience more indirect forms of bullying, whilst boys experience
more direct forms. Secondly, bullying has affected some of the learners to an
extent where they stay away from school. The learners are more comfortable
speaking to their peers about bullying than their parents and teachers.
However, the teachers seem to be largely unaware of the extent and
consequences of bullying.
One of the major implications of this study is that policies that specifically
address bullying in the school need to be developed to curb the problem. In
addition, initiatives should be taken to raise the teachers, parents and learners
awareness of the phenomenon of bullying and appropriate strategies
developed and implemented to curb it. / Thesis (M.Ed.) - University of Natal, Durban, 2002.

Prevalence of bullying among elementary school children as a function of the comprehensiveness of anti-bullying policies and programs in the school / Bullying and policiesOrdonez, Maria Alicia January 2006 (has links)
This study identified research-based components for an effective anti-bullying policy and arranged them according to Bronfenbrenner's (1989) ecosystemic framework. It was hypothesized that the prevalence of different types of bullying was lower in elementary schools with a greater comprehensiveness of anti-bullying policies. Independent variables included the rated presence of anti-bullying components in school policies at four ecosystemic levels: microsystemic, mesosystemic, exosystemic, and macrosystemic. Dependent variables consisted of students' self-report of the occurrence of four types of bullying: attacks on property, and physical, verbal, and social bullying.Two hundred and thirty-one students from six elementary schools completed the Multidimensional Peer-Victimization Scale (Mynard & Joseph, 2000). The majority of students were African American. Three focus groups (students, parents, and school personnel) were also conducted in each school to gather information about anti-bullying policies. Independent raters blind to the hypothesis rated the information from the focus groups using the Comprehensiveness of Anti-bullying Policies Scale; a reliable measure designed for this study. Further, this information was evaluated through content analysis.Results of a One-Way (Comprehensiveness of Policies and Programs) Between Subjects MANOVA revealed a greater prevalence of verbal and physical victimization associated with schools having a lower comprehensiveness of anti-bullying policies and programs. Social victimization and attacks on property did not vary, however, as a function of the comprehensiveness of a school's policies.A supplementary 2 (Gender) x 2 (Comprehensiveness of Policies and Programs) Between Subjects MANOVA yielded no significant interaction between gender and the comprehensiveness of anti-bullying policies. A main effect for gender was found to be significant, however. Boys reported a higher level of physical bullying than girls.Content analyses showed focus group participants perceived physical bullying as more severe than the other types. Participants also reported harsher consequences to address such bullying. It is possible schools convey greater intolerance for physical bullying, hence its lower prevalence.It is concluded that schools' anti-bullying efforts should involve all ecosystemic levels. In addition, policies must include all types of bullying and communicate equal intolerance for each. Implications for theory, counseling, research, and anti-bullying policies are discussed. / Department of Counseling Psychology and Guidance Services

Bullying no contexto escolar: avaliação de um programa de intervenção / Bullying in the school context: evaluation of an intervention programJulliane Messias Cordeiro Sampaio 14 December 2015 (has links)
O bullying pode ser considerado um tipo de violência cujas ações podem causar danos graves aos envolvidos, seja enquanto vítimas ou agressores, ou mesmo de maneira indireta, como espectadores/testemunha. Porém, a fim de mediar os conflitos existentes, pode-se construir um processo emancipatório, no qual o sujeito se torne capaz de gerir suas decisões, em se envolver ou não com o esse tipo de violência na escola, apoiado no conhecimento de sua realidade. Buscando ações de redução e de prevenção do bullying, o Programa de Intervenção Educação em Saúde Antibullying (PIESA) foi executado em uma escola estadual do interior paulista com o objetivo de avaliar os efeitos de sua implementação realizada por uma enfermeira. Método: estudo quase-experimento (antes e depois), utilizando como sujeito 260 estudantes na faixa etária dos 10 aos 17 anos de idade, do 6º ao 9º ano do ensino médio de uma escola pública do interior paulista. A coleta de dados ocorreu no período de abril de 2012 a setembro de 2013. Os dados foram submetidos à análise estatística, obtendo-se a razão de prevalência com o intervalo de confiança (IC) de 95% e comparação dos períodos pré e pós intervenção. Os programas utilizados nas análises foram SPSS 22 e R 3.0.2. Em todos os testes adotados, foi utilizado o nível de significância de 5%. Resultados: Constatou-se que houve mudança de comportamento entre os estudantes envolvidos direta ou indiretamente com o bullying após a execução do PIESA (p=0,001), e, os dados apontaram um decréscimo da prevalência de vítimas e de agressores após a intervenção, bem como das situações que permeavam o fenômeno. \"Pôr apelido\" e ser \"zoado\" foram as manifestações mais relatadas, tanto por vítimas, quanto por agressores e, de igual forma, a frequência dessas perpetrações diminuíram na segunda etapa da investigação. Observou-se ainda a prevalência maior de vítimas do sexo feminino (55,6%) e, quanto ao sexo dos agressores, os percentuais foram semelhantes: 49,0% eram meninas e 51,0% eram meninos. Conclusão: Os resultados dessa investigação apontaram que o programa de intervenção pode ser implementado por um enfermeiro. Para tanto, deve-se reavaliá-lo periodicamente para que, caso surjam novas possibilidades de conflitos e, até mesmo, novas formas de manifestação, a comunidade escolar seja capaz de detectar e intervir rapidamente, evitando que um novo ciclo de violência se inicie / Bullying can be considered a kind of violence whose actions can cause serious damage to those involved, either as victims or perpetrators, or even indirectly, as spectators / witness. However, in order to mediate existing conflicts, it can construct an emancipatory process, in which the subject becomes able to manage their decisions, to engage or not with this kind of violence at school, supported by the knowledge of his reality. Seeking actions to reduce and prevent bullying, the Education Program Intervention in Health Antibullying (PIESA) was executed in a public school in São Paulo State, Brazil, in order to assess the effects of its implementation carried out by a nurse. Method: quasi-experimental study (before and after) using as subjects 260 students aged from 10 to 17 years old, from 6th to 9th year of high school from a public school in São Paulo State, Brazil,. Data collection occurred from April 2012 to September 2013. Data were analyzed statistically, yielding a prevalence ratio with confidence interval (CI) of 95% and comparison of pre- and post-intervention. The programs used in the analysis were SPSS 22 and R 3.0.2. In all tests adopted, we used the 5% significance level. Results: It was found that there was a change of behavior among students involved directly or indirectly with bullying after running the PIESA (p = 0.001), and the data showed a decrease in the prevalence of victims and aggressors after the intervention, as well as of the situations which permeated the phenomenon. \"Putting nickname\" and being \"mocked\" were the most frequently reported events, both by victims and by aggressors and, equally, the frequency of these perpetration decreased in the second stage of the investigation. It was also observed a higher prevalence of female victims. Conclusion: The results of this research show that the intervention program can be implemented by a nurse. For this, one must reevaluate it periodically so that, in case of new potential for conflicts and even new forms of manifestation, the school community is able to detect and intervene quickly, preventing a new cycle of violence begins
