Bullying - Science topic

Hi Ahmed…

First of all Bullying can be of multiple forms Such as Physical appearances, Body parts, Race, Gender, Socio-economic Status etc.

Primarily, it has direct impact on psychological aspects associated with Self such as self-esteem, self-image, self-concep, and some time self-compassion as well.

Lower self variables leads to conscious distress/anxiety among individuals which can take several forms-

lack of interest in day to day activities

poor sleep (insomnia)

fear of social gatherings

suicidal ideations

in adverse cases poor sexual health

Lower sense of self leads to poor confidence and attention which hamper academic attainment.

Sir, I could not agree with you more. I am aware of no violent peoples, such as myself and others, who, although no violent, are still descendants of those who enslaved everyone they could yoke. It is shameful and the blatant lie of hard work and honor wefts a sour and empty odour, it is, indeed, ill gotten, ill kept, stolen, murdered, land, rarely a truth can be found...in it.

Perhaps there are more RG scholars who are doing/conducting research studies/articles/papers relevant to your research topic.

Yehui Zhang, I have gone through your paper, You raise some interesting points about how resources are viewed in economics. However, the paper as a whole, as it stands, might benefit from a clearer research structure, stronger emphasis on its scientific relevance as well as indepth research theory and economic subject matter expertise. Some of the general issues you may want to revisit are:

Incorporating elements, to create a more compelling research highlighting the question, purpose, relevancy of your findings.

To ensure your research paper effectively showcases rigor and subject matter expertise, consider these key points:

A clear and logical narrative structure underpins a rigorous research paper. Here's how to achieve that:

By addressing these points, you can enhance the rigor of your research and demonstrate your expertise to your audience. Remember, clarity, transparency, and a strong narrative structure are crucial for effectively communicating your research and its contributions to the field. Finally, as English is a second language to me, so I understand the difficulty in some of the mechanical issues, but try to avoid ambiguity by simplifying your thoughts or drawing from extant references, to add clarity.

Well, a depressive state, while not innate, often develops from a complex interplay of experiences, circumstances, and internal processes.

It's easy to point fingers at external factors like bullies, but reducing the cause of depression to a single element oversimplifies a deeply intricate issue.

Bullies, while undeniably harmful, may reflect broader societal flaws that feed into a person's mental state. Genetics, too, can predispose someone to mental health struggles, but they don’t doom a person to them.

The real tragedy lies in a person feeling overwhelmed by negative experiences, leading to destructive thought patterns that, without intervention, can spiral into worsening behavior.

This is why it's crucial for those who are popular or influential, whether a boy or a girl, to step in early when they see someone beginning to struggle. Their support could offer a lifeline, breaking the cycle of despair before it becomes entrenched.

Compassion, timely intervention, and understanding are key in preventing the storm from escalating.

1) This depends on how you want to frame your research question, if you want to specifically only check students' experiences of bullying and certain variables, you only need to recruit students who experienced bullying. Another take on this could be to create two models, one for students who didn't experience bullying and one model for those who did, and ask "are these models any different?" using Chi square or whatnot (or create a nested model with "was bullied"/"not bullied" as a categorical factor/level)

2) There's a small but important error here, "I know that in regression analysis, the assumption is normal distribution for variable", this is not the case at all, the variables doesn't have to follow a normal distribution, it's the residuals (i.e., errors - the mismatch between your observed and predicted values) that have to approximately follow a normal distribution.

Why not contact the author's paper if he or she is alive or the publisher who owns the copyright.?

As Shawn I. Kok already pointed out, it is quite simple. You have evidence for a relationship between cyberbullying perpetration and life satisfaction, but this relationship remains constant (nearly the same) across all levels of physical activity, therefore, this is not a moderator.

What I find it odd that you have "physical activity" and "physical excercise" as separate predictors. I would expect them to be highly correlated. Despite that, did you center the variables to make interpretation easier?

Thank you so much sir

Preventing and stopping bullying involves a commitment to creating a safe environment where children can thrive, socially and academically, without being afraid. APA recommends that teachers, parents, and students take the following actions to address bullying, kindly check the following link:

Bullying can make children feel very sad, scared, and alone. It often leads to low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and trouble trusting others, affecting their overall well-being and happiness.

Dear Babulac,

I'm a medical graduate have >20 year work experiences in multiple fields.

Political community, Leadership and Academia all have own basic identities and course individually. But professionally interconnected.

Each sector implemented political commitment. Other hand without leadership quality none can control his/her staffs. Most interesting is to get a development project political community take important role.

Furthermore, present would always want multi-skill individual and mutiskill is the choice for hire.

Hence, it’s interconnected multi ski.

Can you please narrow it down to what specific differences you have observed?

There's a strong connection between workplace bullying and groupthink. When a large portion of colleagues in a department or office share similarities, like attending the same school or coming from the same background, they can form an in-group. This in-group might prioritize supporting each other. Anyone who differs in values, ideas, or work style, avoids going along with the group, or acts more ethically becomes an outsider and a potential target for bullying. This behavior resembles herd mentality. In my experience, ganging up on a single employee is a common tactic to solidify the in-group's position within the organization. Their goal might be to create a comfortable work environment for themselves, and they achieve this by bullying and pushing out anyone who doesn't conform to their established norms.

Hi Zoi,

It is usually the case that the boss would use words (repeatedly) that would make you feel upset, uncomfortable - but when one complains the response will be this is part of the job - and the boss was only doing their duty!

Correlation analysis looks at associations between variables. In comparing two variables, a positive relationship results when higher values in the first variable coincide with higher values in the second variable. In addition, lower values in the first variable coincide with lower values in the second variable. Negative relationships result when higher values in the first variable coincide with lower values in the second variable as well as lower values in the first variable coincide with higher values in the second variable. The existence of an association between variables does not imply that one variable causes another; when building a predictive model, comparative statistics can help identify important variables to use.

All types of students can be subject to bullying. Due to their fragility, my experience tells me that it is preprimary and primary school students who are more subject to experience bullying situations.

when researches want to access a particular subset of people( i e,cyberbulling) uses purposive sampling.

Thank you so much ,best wishes

@Napoleon,Research has indeed explored the correlation between school bullying and addiction behavior. It's important to recognize that while there is evidence suggesting a potential link between school bullying and addiction behavior, individual responses and outcomes can vary widely. Additionally, research in this field continues to evolve as scholars delve deeper into understanding the complex interactions between these two factors and the many variables that can influence them. Therefore, the correlation is not automatic, and the relationship is multifaceted.

Hi,

Pearson's Chi-square test is likely to be suitable for this comparison.

Hope this helps.

I think the discussion about "silent" bullying is much needed. In my research on Swedish secondary school pupils' (11-12 years of age) school experiences, pupils raise awareness of the importance of friends at school, but also – and somewhat contrary – of the hurtful experiences of feeling very lonely and socially isolated in school. School loneliness/social isolation is described by the interviewed pupils either as bullying, or as closely connected to bullying, but which is not so easily recognized as bullying, nor by teachers or by their peers. I argue that the potential failure to recognize school loneliness/social isolation as bullying (or at least as closely intertwined with bullying), on the one hand may relate to the ways school bullying has been defined, i.e., as intentional aggressive acts of physical and verbal acts of aggression. I argue that this, still common definition of bullying, may entail that pupils’ experiences of social isolation (which does not necessarily involve aggressiveness and/or where intentional harm-doing cannot easily be pointed out) risks being left unnoticed, and thus, being made invisible. However, I am currently working on in-depth interviews with school staff about their experiences of working with school loneliness/socially isolated pupils, with which I hope to shed some more light on aspects of silent bullying in schools, as well as the perceived possibilities/difficulties associated with social isolation, school loneliness, and silent bullying which also go beyond aspects of how school bullying has come to be defined.

I have personally experienced it in some of the prestigious institutions of Gujarat and some other states of India, which compelled me to research on the topic.

La causa del bullying se origina por diferentes causas. Las instituciones escolares, pudieran tener una alta influencia, en la reducción de esta conducta, ya que en el ambiente escolar se origina el contancto con el estudiante y los diferentes actores forman parte del contexto del estudiante: Las familias, los docentes, los pares y el personal administrativo. La escuela como parte esencial del contexto del estudiante, si pudiera tener los medios, para afrontar la conducta de acoso entre pares, sin embargo habría que evaluar si tienen el conocimiento oportuno y necesario para intervenir de forma preventiva a cada uno los actores de la comunidad educativa arriba mencionados.

Really, this has nothing to do with research methods, it has to do with

personality disorders and which type of personality disorders is in question.

There are several questionnaires to find out who is a psychopath and who is not. Do you really think that a psychopath would honestly answer the questions if his whole life is a lie more or less.

If there are no studies on your exact topic, then you could expand your definition to go beyond the UK, and generate hypotheses about what you might find if similar studies were conducted there.

Mr. Wali Mohd Dar, thank you for this enlightening questions. I will try to answer them in my upcoming articles. I will send you an invite. Sincere regards

I haven't heard of such questionnaire, however, PAI® (Personality Assessment Inventory™) can detect parental pathology. Combined with DSQ-60 it can indicate some defence mechanisms and personality traits that are predictable for child abuse.

Developing questionnaire in this field depends on your operational definition of bullying, the target population and culture of the investigation environment

Dear Ms. Binz!

Dear Ms. Oluwamumibori!

This is a case - and context dependent topic to consider. I have a cerebral palsy hemiplegia spastic disability on my right side and they bullied me a lot during the primary school years in many different ways. Some boys wanted to have even a fight with me...So the key issue here is to be strong emotionally:

This will depend on how your variables are calculated - namely, whether they are categorical or continuous.

Pearson correlations are good when both variables are continuous. This would mean that workplace bullying is measured continuously, perhaps based on frequency of bullying occurrences; and absenteeism rates are measured by the number of days missed at work.

Chi-Square is best if you have two categorical variables. A possible way of having this work with your variables would be to have workplace bullying as a dichotomous yes/no answer, or having absenteeism as a yes/no. You can also choose more categories for these variables although a chi-square analysis becomes more difficult to interpret once you have 4-5+ categories.

Based on your variables, I think having these both measured continuously may be best. Your sample size will also be important to consider with regards to the Power needed for these analyses. Alternatively, you can also look into t-tests if you want to have a single continuous (i.e., absenteeism days) and a single categorical (i.e., workplace bullying, yes/no) variable.

Of course YES..

Revenge, AT THE MARGIN OF THE SITE OR PLACE WHERE IT IS FROM, IS ALWAYS VENGEANCE, since it is aggressive conduct (of whatever type and implicit or explicit) that is neither classified nor classified by where it occurs; Well, revenge is retaliation against a person or group in response to an injury received (or perceived as such) is something innate in the human being and appears in all kinds of cultures, places and historical moments.

Another thing is that such revenge is translated into an assumption of MOBBING, but -in this case- it is already typified as said mobbing and not as revenge.

"Before starting a journey of revenge, dig two graves." Confucius.

Enter Google Scholar with the keywords: "Cyberbullying in students" and you will find -at this time -5,520 References of Articles on the subject, each one with its corresponding Bibliography and the citations that each of them has obtained -which can offer you multiple new Items-; obviously many of them cite and contain Inventories and Questionnaires on the subject.

It is known as intimidation or harassment (known in English as bullying if it is in the school environment; in the workplace it would be mobbing; but it can also be through telematic means -cyberbullying- and a wide etcetera) when a person or group repeatedly hurts someone on purpose. It can be physical, social and / or verbal. It is always harmful to both victims and stalkers, and it always involves aggressive behavior.

Criminally - since, at least in the European Union it is classified as a crime - the Spanish Supreme Court typifies it saying that "The Supreme Court defines intimidation by stating that" it is constituted by the announcement of an immediate, serious, personal and possible evil that it awakens or inspires in the offended person a feeling of fear, anguish or unease in the face of the contingency of real or imaginary damage ".

If they are the same, there are two possibilities, (a) dataset is not consistent so you have to reimplement your algorithm on another dataset or on a portion of the dataset, (b) if matrix table i.e., TP, TN,... are different then it is occurred by chance so all mertices have the same impact on performance, in this case you can interpret according to the resulting value,

When there is no Significance interaction it means there is no moderation or that moderator does not play any interaction on the variables in question. However this doesn't mean in practice there isn't any interaction

Educate (all stakeholders through talks, campaigns, seminars, etc..), discipline (rules enforcement and disciplinary actions), and involve parents.

Can you provide more details about your question? SPSS allows you to recode and compute variables, and you can also save them in a syntax. You just need to create your measures specifying your criteria. You may need to use the if commands in SPSS. Please read the following https://www.spss-tutorials.com/spss-if-command/

Shanika, To clearly understand the gap in the area of bullying, it is very important to read the extant research reviews. The recent reviews will give you some idea on this and talking to working professionals will also give insight into what can be researched.

It is almost impossible to answer this question if it is not clarified which specific Country it refers to: Eg. In the European Union, School Harassment -Bullying- is radically prohibited, but the various "ad hoc" laws are different in each of its members.

OBVIOUSLY YES ... in fact, "sexual harassment" is a subtype of Harassment, more frequent - to the shame and disgrace of men - among men - not all - towards women; Thus, one is not more manly, nor brave, nor "macho" if not more rude, offensive and aggressive "primate"

It is easy to avoid bullying, and domestic violence if a family has regular income by Govt employment or compensation by the Govt. However, these problems will increase (1-2), if the daily bread-earner has nothing to arrange for food and day to day needs in poor countries where the Government or other agencies are either not doing enough to support such hunger and COVID-stricken families.

Hi Obina,

did you check this 2017 policy paper?

"Let’s decide how to measure school violence"

Academic bullying is normally a very subtle event. It is not easy to unmask it. One of the possible ways of intervention, both preventive and daily, is to create a strong network of support and collaboration between fellow university teachers. It would be excellent to do this within your institution.

One more addition:

I once wrote a naive paper with a new effect (nonunique time on a rotating ring) which appeared in the somewhat naive "Journal of New Energy."

You probably have solved this problem?

Cf.

The main purpose of assignments is to increase the learning capabilities of students. The more we use our brains, the more they develop. This is a proven scientific fact and this is the principle behind giving extremely creative and involving assignments to the students. Students learn a lot more when they read or practice something by themselves.

I wonder if these articles will interest you:

I do not find it to be a dying of whiteness. I find it to be an arrogance of elitism.

Society is damaged when humanists allow their ego to lull them into thinking that they are more worthy than any other human being, and they often use cloaks such as standardized intelligence tests, family pedigree, educational level to hide behind as they suggest that the world is filled with the "more worthy"( which seems to inevitability include themselves) and "others".

Elitism is not racial, although in general, due to racism in society, it is perhaps seen more in certain races. Athletic racism, educational racism, music racism- they all exist and each benefits different colored skin.

Elitism is different than a diminished "whiteness". Elitism is a non-racial attitude of self centered existence being given superiority to humanitarian equality.

Elitism is found in science, education, government, and virtually all aspects of society and it is more destructive than any other form of separation of classes of people.

The highest crimes have been committed by the most highly educated, pedigree'd people, and have inflicted death, destruction and war on innocent human beings that were non-deserving of such elitist destructive forces.

Elitism, not diminished "whiteness", is the destructive variable. It is a destructive ego trapped in an average human that is fearful of being viewed as anything short of exceptional. Some call it delusional.

Hi, there is a valid tool created called the Negative Acts Questionaire-Revised that assesses if someone has experienced bullying.

Anecdotal evidences from Pakistan suggest that bullying has been used as an effective management tool by leaders to achieve operational efficiencies.
