T1 - Students’ Willingness to Intervene in Bullying: Direct and Indirect Associations with Classroom Cohesion and Self-Efficacy T2 - International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health N2 - Although school climate and self-efficacy have received some attention in the literature, as correlates of students’ willingness to intervene in bullying, to date, very little is known about the potential mediating role of self-efficacy in the relationship between classroom climate and students’ willingness to intervene in bullying. To this end, the present study analyzes whether the relationship between classroom cohesion (as one facet of classroom climate) and students’ willingness to intervene in bullying situations is mediated by self-efficacy in social conflicts. This study is based on a representative stratified random sample of two thousand and seventy-one students (51.3% male), between the ages of twelve and seventeen, from twenty-four schools in Germany. Results showed that between 43% and 48% of students reported that they would not intervene in bullying. A mediation test using the structural equation modeling framework revealed that classroom cohesion and self-efficacy in social conflicts were directly associated with students’ willingness to intervene in bullying situations. Furthermore, classroom cohesion was indirectly associated with higher levels of students’ willingness to intervene in bullying situations, due to self-efficacy in social conflicts. We thus conclude that: (1) It is crucial to increase students’ willingness to intervene in bullying; (2) efforts to increase students’ willingness to intervene in bullying should promote students’ confidence in dealing with social conflicts and interpersonal relationships; and (3) self-efficacy plays an important role in understanding the relationship between classroom cohesion and students’ willingness to intervene in bullying. Recommendations are provided to help increase adolescents’ willingness to intervene in bullying and for future research.

A1 - Bilz, Ludwig T1 - Is self-regulation a relevant aspect of intervention competence for teachers in bullying situations? T2 - Nordic Studies in Education N2 - Teachers play a crucial role in stopping bullying, but react in different ways. Could their competence profile explain these differences? In the literature, self-regulation is understood as being part of teacher competence and is known to be important for other aspects of teaching. However, it has not yet been studied in relation to bullying interventions. In the present study, we examined this interaction for the first time using a sample of 556 teachers. Contrary to our expectations, self-regulation appears not to be relevant in teachers’ intervention behaviour. Possible reasons and implications are discussed.

T1 - Kooperativer Interventionsansatz bei Mobbing im Schulkontext N2 - Vorgestellt wird ein Interventionsansatz für Mobbing in der Schule. Er beruht auf der Grundannahme, dass Mobbing an Schulen ein multifaktoriell bedingtes Phänomen mit Determinanten auf individueller, sozialer und kontextueller Ebene ist. Der Interventionsansatz ist durch eine ganzheitliche, kooperative Herangehensweise gekennzeichnet. Er beruht auf Forschungsbefunden zu Lehrerkompetenzen im Umgang mit Mobbing sowie zur Wirksamkeit spezifischer Interventionsstrategien. Wichtige Anregungen lieferten der No Blame Approach sowie weitere Interventionsprogramme und -empfehlungen. Beschrieben wird ein grundlegendes Vorgehen in fünf Teilschritten, das je nach Art des Mobbingfalls adaptiert werden kann. Variationen betreffen insbesondere das Ausmaß der notwendigen Kooperationen, den Einbezug externer psychosozialer Beratungsangebote sowie das Ausmaß der Konfrontation, mit der den mobbenden Lernenden begegnet wird.

Verschiedene Studien legen nahe, dass die Selbstwirksamkeitserwartung der Lehrkräfte dafür eine bedeutsame Ressource ist. Mittels eines systematischen Forschungsüberblicks wird im vorliegenden Beitrag analysiert, welche Fragestellungen Studien in diesem Themenbereich untersuchen und zu welchen zentralen Ergebnissen sie kommen. Die Befunde lassen sich einem breiten thematischen Feld zuordnen, wobei die meisten Einzelergebnisse den Zusammenhang mit der Interventionsbereitschaft der Lehrer betreffen. Überwiegend wird berichtet, dass höhere Selbstwirksamkeitserwartungen mit einer größeren Tendenz zu intervenieren einhergehen. Dennoch finden sich auch widersprüchliche Ergebnisse. Ersten Analysen zufolge könnten solche Widersprüche auf unterschiedliche Spezifitätsgrade der betrachteten Selbstwirksamkeitserwartungen zurückgeführt werden.

T1 - Interventionsstrategien und Interventionserfolg von Lehrkräften bei Cybermobbing und traditionellem Mobbing aus Schülersicht T2 - Kindheit und Entwicklung N2 - In dieser Studie wird der Frage nachgegangen, ob Lehrkräfte auf unterschiedliche Mobbingarten unterschiedlich reagieren. Dazu werden Angaben von 1.996 Schülerinnen und Schülern aus Sachsen zu tatsächlich stattgefundenen Mobbingsituationen ausgewertet. Sie schätzten neben der dominierenden Mobbingform in der Situation die Reaktion ihrer Lehrkräfte auf die Situation, die gewählte Interventionsstrategie und den Interventionserfolg ein. Am häufigsten werden Fälle verbalen Mobbings berichtet, Cybermobbingfälle hingegen vergleichsweise selten. Die Jugendlichen berichten, dass die meisten Lehrkräfte in den Mobbingsituationen intervenieren, vor allem wenn es sich um Cybermobbing handelt. Aus ihrer Sicht sind Lehrkräfte besonders erfolgreich darin, Cybermobbing zu beenden. Unterstützend-kooperierenden Interventionsstrategien wird von den Schülerinnen und Schülern ein höherer Interventionserfolg bescheinigt als autoritär-strafenden und unterstützend-individuellen Strategien.

A1 - John, Nancy A1 - Bilz, Ludwig T1 - Teachers’ self-efficacy in preventing and intervening in school bullying: A systematic review T2 - International Journal of Bullying Prevention N2 - Self-efficacy, commonly seen as an important competence for teachers when intervening in bullying, is a heterogeneous construct. Differences in the specific kinds of self-efficacy under review, its assessment, theoretical foundations, and the samples used when researching it generate diverse results that can be hard to integrate. This systematic review surveys existing literature on the extent of teachers’ self-efficacy in managing bullying and its connection to the likelihood that teachers will intervene in bullying, to their intervention strategies, and the prevention measures they employ, as well as students’ bullying behavior and their experiences of victimization. Thirty-six relevant publications based on 33 studies were included. The quality of their results was assessed, and their findings were systematized and are discussed here. Many studies are of low quality because of incomplete descriptions of underlying theoretical as well as methodological foundations. Almost all results are based on descriptive study designs. Consistent findings show that teachers generally feel confident in managing bullying and that teachers who are more confident intervene more often. Findings were mixed on the connections between teachers’ self-efficacy and intervention strategies, and the prevention measures they used, as well as students’ bullying behavior and experiences of victimization. It was also discovered that the connections between teachers’ self-efficacy and their prevention measures, their students’ bullying behavior, and collective efficacy in general have rarely been addressed in the literature.
