There is an implication that individuals who are bullied must have "asked for" this type of treatment, or deserved it. Sometimes, even the child who is bullied begins to internalize this idea. For many years, there has been a general acceptance and collective shrug when it comes to a child or adolescent with greater social capital or power pushing around a child perceived as subordinate. But bullying is not developmentally appropriate; it should not be considered a normal part of the typical social grouping that occurs throughout a child's life. Although bullying behavior endures through generations, the milieu is changing. Historically, bulling has occurred at school, the physical setting in which most of childhood is centered and the primary source for peer group formation. In recent years, however, the physical setting is not the only place bullying is occurring. Technology allows for an entirely new type of digital electronic aggression, cyberbullying, which takes place through chat rooms, instant messaging, social media, and other forms of digital electronic communication. Composition of peer groups, shifting demographics, changing societal norms, and modern technology are contextual factors that must be considered to understand and effectively react to bullying in the United States. Youth are embedded in multiple contexts and each of these contexts interacts with individual characteristics of youth in ways that either exacerbate or attenuate the association between these individual characteristics and bullying perpetration or victimization. Recognizing that bullying behavior is a major public health problem that demands the concerted and coordinated time and attention of parents, educators and school administrators, health care providers, policy makers, families, and others concerned with the care of children, this report evaluates the state of the science on biological and psychosocial consequences of peer victimization and the risk and protective factors that either increase or decrease peer victimization behavior and consequences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 2001 book is a follow-on to John Braithwaite's best-selling and influential Crime, Shame and Reintegration. Shame management is becoming a central concept, in theoretical and practical terms. This book makes a major contribution to the advancement of shame in a theoretical sense. For criminology, as well as for psychology, sociology and other areas, this accessible book serves as an introduction to the concepts of shame, guilt and embarrassment. Presenting research by the Restorative Justice Centre at the Australian National University, the book contributes immeasurably to the development of practical alternatives to common sanctions in an effort to reduce crime and other social problems. Written by the key exponents of restorative justice, the book is an important re-statement of the theory and practice of shaming. It will develop important and often controversial debates about punishment, shaming and restorative justice to a new level.

Abstract: Under the circumstances of rapid industrialization and urbanization, China has been undergoing a series of remarkable changes in the social, economic, and family structures. Meanwhile, the great majority of Chinese families are officially allowed to have only one child in China since the introduction of the OCFP in the late 1970s. But what is happening as China becomes more developed and children are much more valued? Are Chinese children well protected from intra- and extra-familial violence? This study focused on the topic of bullying victimization, and was devised to explore the scope and the magnitude of child''s being bullied in China. Besides, this study adopted the ecological model to examine the multiple-contextual risk factors of bullying victimization, and to test the applicability of this model in the Chinese socio-cultural context. This study also paid special attention to investigate the unique role of children''s experiences of family violence in relation with bullying victimization. The present study used a subsample of the cross-sectional data from a representative population project in five cities of the Mainland China. The researcher actively participated in the whole process of the project, including being involved in the original methodology design and setting up of research questions. This dataset used a three-stage stratified random sampling design and included a total of 3175 students aged 15-17 years randomly selected from 24 schools in 3 districts (from both urban and rural areas) in Xi''an, China. Self-administrated questionnaires were employed to collect data. The Juvenile Victimization Questionnaire (JVQ) and Relational Aggression Scale were used as measures for bullying victimization. Family violence experiences include child abuse and witnessing spouse violence in this study. Results showed that 54.9% and 44.6% of Chinese children have been bullied in a lifetime and in the preceding-year, respectively, and cyber bullying victimization was more extensively common and frequently experienced by children. Meanwhile, the considerable overlap found between FV and bullying victimization indicated that a vast majority of children who were bullied by peers are also victims of child abuse or exposure to parental partner violence at home. Significant gender differences were observed both in FV and bullying victimization. Specifically, females were more likely to be indirect victims of FV, whereas males were more likely to be directly involved in child abuse and in all three subtypes of bullying victimization. By performing a series of logistic regressions, the current study identified a number of correlates significantly associated with child bullying victimization, which included demographics (e.g., young age, male participant, parents'' education level were From 3 or below, having one or more siblings, were from families with divorced or separated parents, had an unemployed father at home, whose family had no income, from rural schools, not from key schools), children''s personal characteristics (i.e., smoking, gambling, alcohol abuse, low self-esteem, depression, APT, BPT, PTSD, and insecure attachment with parents), school-related factors (i.e., school type and school location), as well as FV experiences. Follow-up structured multiphase regression analyses further delineate the unique role of FV in associa

Download or read book School Bullying written by Anthony A. Peguero and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-12-21 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the associated experiences of school bullying and violence among vulnerable and marginalized youth. It discusses the effects of diversity and disparities in youth’s experiences with bullying. Among these are socioeconomic and social status, family cohesion and interactions, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression, race, ethnicity, immigration, religion, and disabilities and special health needs. The book describes the ways in which a social-ecological framework can inform the problem and address school bullying. It addresses not only individual, intrapersonal, and environmental factors of bullying, but also discusses distal level factors and conditions that are specifically relevant to youth (e.g., culture and law). In addition, this volume contextualizes relevant multilevel factors that foster or inhibit bullying victimization among vulnerable and historically marginalized children and adolescents who are faced with cumulative social stratification. Key areas of coverage include: The role of the family (parents and guardians, siblings) – its cohesion and interactions – in school bullying. Race, ethnicity, immigration, and religion and school bullying of marginalized and at-risk youth. Victimization of students with physical, emotional, and learning disorders. Bullying and victimization of vulnerable youth in the court systems. School Bullying is an essential resource for researchers, clinicians and other practitioners, graduate students, and policymakers across such disciplines as child and school psychology, social work and counseling, pediatrics and school nursing, educational policy and politics, and all interrelated disciplines.

Download or read book Protection of Sexual Minorities since Stonewall written by Phil C.W. Chan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Stonewall Riot in New York in 1969 marked the birth of the sexual minority rights movement worldwide. In the subsequent four decades, equality and related rights on grounds of sexual orientation and gender identity have been enshrined in many African, Asian, Australasian, European and North American countries, thanks to better informed discourses of the natures of sexual orientation, gender identity, equality and rights that systematic scientific and socio-legal research has generated. Discrimination, harassment and persecution on grounds of a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity, however, continue to pervade the laws and social norms in all developed and developing countries. In tribute to the courage of those who participated in the Stonewall Riot, this book examines the progress and stalemate in various countries on five continents, as well as in the development of international law, concerning the rights of persons belonging to sexual minorities. This book covers issues including homophobic bullying and gay–straight alliances in schools; the merits and problems that legislation prohibiting hate speech on grounds of sexual orientation presents; criminal justice systems in relation to male rape victims and to criminalisation of HIV exposure and transmission; the development of sexual minority rights, from historical and socio-legal perspectives, in Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, and Zimbabwe; the lives of transgender persons in Asian countries; the evolution, operation and impact of international and domestic refugee laws on sexual orientation and gender identity as grounds for refugee status and asylum; and the conflicts between law, religion and sexual minority equality rights that inhere in the same-sex marriage debate in Ireland. This book was previously published as a special double issue of The International Journal of Human Rights.

This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the association between early exposure to family violence, including domestic violence and child maltreatment, and later involvement in bullying perpetration and peer victimization, as well as the moderating role of school connectedness in this relationship. I conducted a secondary data analysis using data from the Fragile Family and Child Wellbeing Study (FFCWS), and examining a total of 1,630 cases. Controlling for demographic variables including childs gender, race/ethnicity, family income, and mothers age, I used two models separately to examine how childrens exposure to family violence at age three predicted their involvement in bullying perpetration and peer victimization at age nine, and how school connectedness moderated the effect of family violence on bullying-related behaviors. Using the Bioecological Theory of Human Development, I applied the Process-Person-Context-Time (PPCT) model to examine school bullying issues from a social-ecological perspective. My analysis indicated that, when demographic variables were controlled for, being exposed to family violence at age three significantly predicted bullying perpetration and peer victimization at age nine. Although the analysis did not find that school connectedness moderated the relationship between family violence and bullying, it showed a significant association between school connectedness and bullying-related behaviors. The studys findings suggest that addressing trauma-related issues may be crucial to addressing bullying issues, which indicates that school bullying needs to be addressed through a trauma-informed lens. I conclude this dissertation with a discussion of the studys findings, implications, strengths and limitations, and by making recommendations for future research.

International Focus – approximately forty-percent of the chapters deal with bullying assessment, prevention, and intervention efforts outside the USA. Chapter Structure – to provide continuity, chapter authors follow a common chapter structure: overview, conceptual foundations, specific issues or programs, and a review of current research and future research needs. Implications for Practice – a critical component of each chapter is a summary table outlining practical applications of the foregoing research. Expertise – the editors and contributors include leading researchers, teachers, and authors in the bullying field, most of whom are deeply connected to organizations studying bullying around the world.
Download or read book The Development and Treatment of Childhood Aggression written by Kenneth H. Rubin and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2013-05-13 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprised of papers and commentaries from the Earlscourt Symposium on Childhood Aggression held in Toronto, Canada, this volume reflects the Earlscourt Child and Family Centre's commitment to linking clinical practice to identifiable research-based interventions which are known to be effective in the prevention and treatment of antisocial behavior in children. The education of human services professionals has typically failed to train individuals to work with specific client populations, providing a generalist approach grounded in theoretical assumptions and professional values rather than research and empirical studies. This compelling book serves to fill this gap in professional education in the area of childhood aggression. Representing substantial accomplishments in the advancement of an understanding of the plight of aggressive children and how best to ameliorate their often unpredictable and painful situations, this text allows for cautious optimism that empirical research can have practical consequences for aggressive children and their prospects for a better life. As such, it is a truly important information resource for professionals in the fields of developmental psychology and counseling.
