Area of Science:

  • Educational Psychology
  • Child Development
  • Violence Prevention

Background:

  • Elementary school violence poses significant challenges to student well-being and learning environments.
  • Effective prevention strategies are crucial for fostering positive social-emotional development.
  • Empathy is recognized as a key component in mitigating aggressive behaviors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an empathy-based violence prevention educational program (VPEP-E) for elementary school children.
  • To create a teacher-led program that can be integrated into classroom settings.
  • To provide a structured curriculum for fostering empathy and preventing violence.

Main Methods:

  • The program development utilized Hoffman's theory of empathy.
  • The ADDIE instructional design model (Seels & Richey, 1994) guided the development process.
  • The program was structured into eight distinct sessions focused on various aspects of violence and empathy.

Main Results:

  • The VPEP-E program comprises eight 40-minute sessions designed for fifth-grade students.
  • Program content covers definitions of violence and empathy, types of violence, emotional recognition, and conflict resolution.
  • Teacher feedback indicated the program is accessible and suitable for elementary school students.
  • The program aims to build a foundation for violence prevention by cultivating empathy.

Conclusions:

  • The developed VPEP-E program is anticipated to be effective in preventing violence among elementary school students.
  • Further research is recommended to evaluate the program's efficacy across diverse age groups.
  • The program provides a scalable model for empathy-based violence prevention in schools.
