Abstract | This qualitative study aims to investigate urban students' perceptions of bullying. Thirty participants were recruited from the fourth through eighth grade in an urban school system. Five primary themes emerged representing these youths' perceptions of: (a) the nature of the bullying; (b) the characteristics of victims and bullies; (c) the perceived reasons for bullying; (d) reactions to bullying; and (e) preventive measures. Discrepancies pertaining to perceived power and the intent to inflict harm were found between student responses and adult-generated views of bullying in the literature. Future research is needed to verify the discrepancies found and to inform intervention development. (Contains 1 figure.) (As Provided). |
