Bullying and Intervention Proposal Research Proposal by supercalifragilistic

In this article, the writer notes that the national phenomenon of bullying must be considered across individual, family, peer, school, and community contexts. The writer maintains that as bullying tends to perpetuate itself, formulating and implementing effective bullying prevention and intervention programs demands an understanding of the environment that establishes and maintains it. The writer makes use of a study concerning 11 seventh grade students, five girls and six boys, who were involved with the bully/victim dyad during the previous year. The instruments used were a bullying questionnaire to compare victimization and emotional status of the participants and the Iowa basic skills tests to assess academic performance. A synthesis of the results of the interviews and statistical results of the Iowa tests is made to identify any relationship between bullying/ victimization and academic performance.
