School bullying interventions show varied effectiveness. This review examines school, class, and individual-level programs, suggesting improvements for future research and practical application in reducing bullying.

Area of Science:

  • Educational Psychology
  • Public Health
  • Sociology

Background:

  • School bullying has emerged as a significant global concern over the past two decades.
  • Increased public and research attention has spurred the development of interventions to mitigate bullying.
  • The effectiveness of these interventions has been inconsistently evaluated.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review and analyze the effectiveness of various school-based bullying intervention programs.
  • To identify factors contributing to the varied success of interventions.
  • To propose strategies for enhancing future intervention research and implementation.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review of large-scale, school-based intervention programs.
  • Categorization of interventions by target level: school, class, and individual.

  • Analysis of intervention effectiveness based on available evaluation data.

    • Main Results:

    • Interventions targeting the school level (e.g., whole-school policy, peer support) showed mixed results.
    • Class-level (e.g., curriculum work) and individual-level (e.g., targeted pupil support) interventions also demonstrated variable effectiveness.
    • Significant heterogeneity exists in the evaluation methodologies and reported outcomes of reviewed programs.

    Conclusions:

    • There is a need for more rigorous and standardized evaluation of school bullying interventions.
    • Improving the comparability of studies is crucial for synthesizing evidence.
    • Future interventions should incorporate evidence-based strategies and robust evaluation frameworks to enhance effectiveness.
