Summary

Why do children get involved with bullying? Does cyberbullying differ from traditional bullying? How can bullying at school be prevented? Exploring what bullying is and what factors lead to children playing roles as bullies, victims, defenders, bystanders or even some combination of these, this title examines proactive strategies to reduce the likelihood of bullying happening in school, but also looks at what action the school could take if bullying incidents do occur. As bullying can have such far-reaching consequences and sometimes tragic outcomes, it is vital to grasp how and why it happens, and 'The Psychology of School Bullying' shows how improved knowledge and understanding can lead to effective interventions.
