Bullying

8.4K
A modern form of aggression is bullying. As you learn in your study of child development, socializing and playing with other children is beneficial for children’s psychological development. However, as you may have experienced as a child, not all play behavior has positive outcomes. Some children are aggressive and want to play roughly. Other children are selfish and do not want to share toys. One form of negative social interactions among children that has become a national concern is...

Conduct Disorder01:28

Conduct Disorder

Conduct disorder is a complex mental health diagnosis characterized by a repetitive and persistent pattern of behavior that violates societal norms, the rights of others, or age-appropriate rules.

Stereotype Threat and Self-fulfilling Prophecies

37.6K
When we hold a stereotype about a person, we have expectations that he or she will fulfill that stereotype. A self-fulfilling prophecy is an expectation held by a person that alters his or her behavior in a way that tends to make it true. When we hold stereotypes about a person, we tend to treat the person according to our expectations. This treatment can influence the person to act according to our stereotypic expectations, thus confirming our stereotypic beliefs. Research by Rosenthal and...

Bystander Effect

9.5K
The discussion of bullying highlights the problem of witnesses not intervening to help a victim. This is a common occurrence, as the following well-publicized event demonstrates. In 1964, in Queens, New York, a 19-year-old woman named Kitty Genovese was attacked by a person with a knife near the back entrance to her apartment building and again in the hallway inside her apartment building. When the attack occurred, she screamed for help numerous times and eventually died from her stab wounds.

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

5.2K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Area of Science:

  • Educational Psychology
  • Adolescent Health
  • School Climate Studies

Background:

  • Peer bullying's negative effects on students are extensively documented.
  • The impact of teacher bullying on student behavior remains less understood.
  • Teacher bullying involves misuse of authority for student punishment or disparagement.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the prevalence of teacher bullying.
  • To examine the relationship between teacher bullying and student risk-taking behaviors.
  • To compare the effects of peer bullying versus teacher bullying.

Main Methods:

  • A statewide school climate survey administered to 106,865 high school students.
  • Classification of students into four groups: no bullying, only peer bullying, only teacher bullying, and both peer and teacher bullying.
  • Logistic regression analysis to assess the association between bullying experiences and risk behaviors.

Main Results:

  • All forms of bullying victimization were linked to increased risk-taking behaviors compared to non-bullied peers.
  • Students subjected to both peer and teacher bullying exhibited the highest likelihood of engaging in risk behaviors.
  • Identified risk behaviors included substance use, weapon carrying, fighting, suicidal ideation, and suicide attempts.

Conclusions:

  • Teacher bullying is a significant factor contributing to student risk-taking behaviors.
  • Antibullying initiatives should incorporate strategies specifically addressing teacher bullying.
  • Further attention to teacher bullying is crucial for improving student safety and well-being.
