Dimensions of School Climate Associated with Reports of Bullying and Victimization in a Setting Serving Predominantly Latino Youth
Journal Title: International Journal of Psycho-Educational Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
Over the past decade, there has been increased recognition of the importance of school climate and school climate reform to address school violence. School climate has been found to have a significant impact on bullying reports and victimization, however correlations between these variables may differ among Latino, economically disadvantaged youth. Results indicated that reports of witnessing bullying and bullying victimization were correlated to the Teaching and Learning, Relationships, or Emotional Environment dimension, however no correlations were found with the Physical Environment, Community Engagement, and Morale in the School Community dimensions. Implications for school administrators, faculty, and staff are discussed.
