Download or read book Bullying in Schools written by Ken Rigby and published by Aust Council for Ed Research. This book was released on 2007 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bullying is now widely recognised as a serious problem that affects many children in schools. It can take many forms, including direct verbal and physical harassment and indirect forms such as deliberate exclusion and the targeting of individuals using cyber technology. Continual and severe bullying can cause both short term and long term damage, making it difficult for victims to form intimate relationships with others and for habitual bullies to avoid following a delinquent lifestyle and becoming perpetrators of domestic violence. Even though this type of abuse affects many of our school children, Ken Rigby believes there are grounds for optimism. This passionate and motivating book shows that there are ways of reducing the likelihood of bullying occurring in a school and effective ways of tackling cases when they do occur. Using up-to-date studies, Bullying in Schools helps us to understand the nature of bullying and why it so often takes place in schools. Importantly, it examines and evaluates what schools can do to promote more positive peer relationships within the school community and take effective and sustainable action to deal with problems that may arise. Teachers, parents, school leaders, policy makers, and health professionals will find it invaluable and empowering.

Download or read book Bullying in American Schools written by Anne G. Garrett and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2010-07-27 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1992, there have been 250 violent deaths in schools, and in virtually every one, bullying has been a contributing factor to the violence. As in the Columbine High School shooting in Littleton, Colorado, most of the students who committed these violent crimes were victims of bullying who decided to get revenge. Such violence has become one of the most serious problems in America today, and both bullies and their victims need help. Chapter One defines bullying as a form of violence among children and discusses characteristics of bullies. Chapter Two identifies myths about bullies and presents research that dispels those myths. Chapter Three considers how serious violence begins with seemingly innocent put-downs and teasing. Chapter Four explores how bullying may indicate the beginning of a generally antisocial and rule-breaking behavior pattern that can extend into adulthood, and presents successful programs and interventions. Chapter Five presents useful solutions and strategies to stop bullying.

Download or read book Rethinking School Bullying written by Roz Dixon and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-03-31 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What would make anti-bullying initiatives more successful? This book offers a new approach to the problem of school bullying. The question of what constitutes a useful theory of bullying is considered and suggestions are made as to how priorities for future research might be identified. The integrated, systemic model of school bullying introduced in this book is based on four qualitative studies and incorporates theory from systemic thinking; cognitive, social, developmental and psychoanalytic psychology; sociology, socio-biology and ethology. The possible functions served by bullying behaviour are explored. Consideration is also given to the potential role of unconscious as well as conscious processes in bullying. The model suggests a number of causal processes within one-to-one relationships and peer groups, and highlights factors within individuals and schools that shape the form, intensity and duration of bullying behaviour in practice. The issue of 'difference' is also addressed, focusing on childhood deafness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic Paper from the year 2020 in the subject Sociology - Children and Youth, grade: A, Kenyatta University, language: English, abstract: The primary aim of this study is to explain the effect of bullying on girls in secondary schools. To achieve this aim, it is important to acknowledge that bullying is understood differently among different groups of people especially among students. For instance, what one person may consider to be bullying could be considered as normal behaviour by another person. Due to this, it is important to gather data from a wide range of sources and large samples to understand the extent of impact of bullying on girl students. Meanwhile, the study shall also examine the social interaction patterns which are affected by bullying in secondary schools. Hence, the researcher intends to explore the perception of bullying among girls in secondary schools and to assess how bullying affects girls in secondary schools physically, mentally, and socially. In general, the researcher’s primary goal was to answer the question which impact bullying has on girls in secondary schools? Bullying and harassment are common issues in many secondary schools in the United Kingdom. In fact, for many years, bullying was viewed as a common feature in schools and was overlooked as a threat to students. In some societies, it was believed that bullying is one of the developmental stages that young people must get over. However, a considerable number of people often fails to get over the personal trauma that results from bullying.

Download or read book Exploring Bullying And Gender Dysphoria Among Filipino Adolescent Gays and Lesbians written by Josephine P. Manapsal and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2019-02-21 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2018 in the subject Psychology - Social Psychology, , language: English, abstract: The present study determines the relationship of bullying experiences, and the self-perceived gender dysphoria of Filipino teenage gays and lesbians. They express a strong cross-sex identification, and oftentimes insist on living in discrimination, being trapped in the wrong body, thus, they make a major decision to undergo hormonal treatment or sex surgery. Failure to do is causing them distress, depression, and low self-esteem. There is no study that supports mild experience of bullying that may not lead them to experience gender dysphoria. The majority of teenage gays and lesbians are less bullied though there is a minimal difference, verbal bullying remains the most common type of bullying, followed by social bullying, physical bullying and attack on property. Averagely bullied are those who experience discrimination and violence in school; they are either frequently bullied or easily upset, but not both. On the other hand, highly bullied are the ones who experience loneliness and often have the lowest self–esteem because of violence experience in the school. They are the ones who frequently accept unwanted actions. There is a significant direct correlation between bullying experience and their self-perceived gender dysphoria. Since the majority of gays and lesbians are less bullied, the level of gender dysphoria is only mild. They are mildly disturbed with the incongruence of their mind-body connection. Gender dysphoria manifests among children, adolescents and adults. Gender dysphoria is usually accompanied by depressed mood, anxiety, and behaviour problems, all of which can considerably heighten the level of distress. When a gay or a lesbian experience a distressing bullying, the level of gender dysphoria is heightened, and they may opt to undergo cross hormonal treatment. Keywords: social bullying, gender, incongruence, LGBT, penectomy, vaginoplasty, mastectomy or phalloplasty

Methods that have been used to bully have remained constant through time. Be that as it may, a new form of bullying has arisen. This form involves the media and is labeled as cyberbullying. This essay discusses the two different styles to bullying, which are, traditional bullying, and cyberbullying. After that has been discussed, the focus of the essay will shift to the effects that bullying has brought upon youth. The main concern for the issue of bullying is that some may be committing suicide because of the endless torment. This essay discusses both sides to bullying, which are, the victim, and the bully. This is for comparing and contrasting the reasoning behind each of their reactions to their situations. Many examples of bully-related suicides will be explored and discussed. Opinions on what can be done; will be shared by both specialists, such as a psychiatrist, and certain members of the general population. This will ensure both a professional’s opinion, as well as the opinions of normal citizens can be shared and reasoned. Suicide due to bullying is a problem, but not an epidemic. Youth need to be aware of how to deal with bullies, and that there is always hope. There are many organizations in the world that deal with these sorts of issues, and look to helping those who are in need of aid.
