The Nature and Prevention of Political Violence. N2 - Research on the development of bullying is often based upon Bronfenbrenner’s socioecological model (Swearer & Hymel, 2015). Thus, various relevant contextual variables have been identified, including classroom climate and school climate (Thornberg et al., 2018; Zych et al., 2019). School climate has been defined in different ways, mostly including relationships between people in the school environment (Wang et al., 2016). Empirically, only the relationships between students (also summarised within the class as classroom climate) and between teachers and pupils are usually considered. However, teachers have been identified as particularly significant in the bullying process and as role models for students (Colpin et al., 2021). Because of this, it is assumed that relationships among teachers can also be significant risk factors for student bullying. In this study, we investigate communication climate among teachers as part of the school climate and its associations to student bullying. In addition, we follow Bronfenbrenner’s idea of interactions among contextual levels by considering both school climate and classroom climate and investigating moderation effects. Data was collected from more than 550 teachers and 2,000 students in 114 classes at 24 schools in Germany. The analyses involved three-level hierarchical binary regression analyses and cross-level interaction models. Findings suggest that staff communication climate is not associated directly with students’ experiences with bullying, but that the worse staff communication climate, the more students bully others in classrooms with high rates of rivalry (cross-level moderation). The associations will further be analysed under consideration of relevant control variables. Final results will be presented at the conference. The study broadens the contextual perspective on bullying by including more than one level at once and supports the importance of a whole-school perspective on bullying.

First results of a systematic review T2 - 28TH WORKSHOP ON AGGRESSION N2 - Hate speech is a global social problem with a multitude of negative consequences. Derogatory expressions against certain groups of people are not a new phenomenon. However, hate speech has become much more widespread in recent years. After the Internet, the school is a place where hate speech occurs and where children and young people perpetrate, witness, and become victims of hate speech (Castellanos et al., 2023; Kansok-Dusche et al., 2023). Schools represent a suitable location to address hate speech incidents and to prevent future hate speech. To date, there is limited evidence on the availability, quality, and effectiveness of school-based anti-hate speech programs. The objective of this systematic review is to compile a catalogue of available anti-hate speech programs, that are particularly aimed at children and youth and that can be used to deal with hate speech in schools. Furthermore, their quality and utility are to be evaluated on a criteria-driven basis by two independent reviewers. The presentation will provide an overview of the 27 programmes identified and the initial results regarding their quality. Recommendations are given for the implementation of these programmes in schools and for their further improvement.

DGPs-Kongress Wien N2 - Die Forschung zur Prävention und Intervention von Mobbing und Cybermobbing wird sehr häufig vor dem theoretischen Hintergrund sozio-ökologischer Modelle durchgeführt. Die Bedeutung des sozialen Kontexts von Mobbing und somit auch des Handelns von Lehrpersonen bei der Prävention von Mobbing und bei der Intervention bei bestehendem Mobbing steht dabei mittlerweile außer Frage. Ebenso wird immer wieder auf die Notwendigkeit hingewiesen, das Elternhaus bzw. die Sorgeberechtigten in die Anti-Mobbing-Maßnahmen einzubeziehen. Sofern Anti-Mobbing-Programme oder Maßnahmen die Zusammenarbeit von Schule und Familie bzw. von Lehrpersonen und Eltern beinhalten, unterscheiden sich Form, Ausmaß und Qualität der Zusammenarbeit allerdings beträchtlich und reichen beispielsweise vom Versenden von Briefen nach Hause bis hin zum aktiven Einbezug der Eltern in die Mobbingprävention auf Schul-, Klassen- und individueller Ebene. Ziel des vorgestellten systematischen Reviews ist es, Forschungsergebnisse zu identifizieren, die Informationen über die Effektivität und Art der Zusammenarbeit zwischen Elternhaus und Schule bei der Prävention und Intervention von Mobbing und Cybermobbing liefern. Eine systematische Literaturrecherche in relevanten Datenbanken ist bereits abgeschlossen und die Ergebnisse umfassen gemäß der Suchstrategie sowohl qualitative als auch quantitative Studien in englischer und deutscher Sprache. Zum Zeitpunkt der Konferenz werden die Ergebnisse der Volltextanalyse bereits vorliegen und erste Auswertungen präsentiert, die die Struktur der Zusammenarbeit, Hürden und Herausforderungen, rechtliche Rahmenbedingungen und Aspekte der Zusammenarbeit, die eine erfolgreiche Kooperation unterstützen, aufzeigen.

Hatespeech ist eine Form menschenfeindlicher Äußerungen und stellt Schulen, zu deren Aufgaben auch Demokratiebildung gehört, vor besondere Herausforderungen. Um Schüler:innen für Hatespeech zu sensibilisieren, sie beim Umgang mit Hatespeech-Situationen zu unterstützen und ihnen erfolgreiche Strategien gegen Hatespeech zu vermitteln, steht eine Vielzahl an Anti-Hatespeech-Programmen zur Verfügung, deren Zielsetzungen, Umfang und Qualität sich stark voneinander unterscheiden. In einer durch das Bundesministerium für Familie, Senioren, Frauen und Jugend im Rahmen des Bundesprogramms „Demokratie leben!“ geförderten Studie wurden national und international verfügbare Anti-Hatespeech-Programme ermittelt und einer systematischen Qualitätsanalyse unterzogen. Dabei wurden 16 Qualitätskriterien einbezogen, die sowohl aus wissenschaftlicher als auch aus praxisbezogener Perspektive ermittelt wurden. Insgesamt wurden 27 Anti-Hatespeech-Programme eingeschätzt. In dieser Publikation werden die zentralen Ergebnisse zu den 27 Programmen praxisnah vorgestellt, sodass Praktiker:innen an Schulen eine fundierte Auswahl treffen können. Dazu werden die zentralen Inhalte, Zielgruppen und Kontextbedingungen wie z. B. Dauer, Format und Kosten, aber auch die Ergebnisse der Qualitätseinschätzung für jedes der 27 Programme vorgestellt. Für ausgewählte Situationen und Zielstellungen werden einzelne Programme exemplarisch näher beschrieben.

A1 - Bilz, Ludwig T1 - Staff communication at school and student–student relationship quality in the classroom : direct and indirect effects on students’ experiences as bullies, bullied, and bully-victims T2 - International Journal of Bullying Prevention N2 - Bullying research is often based upon Bronfenbrenner’s socioecological model, focusing on contextual level aspects associated with individual bullying experiences. Thus, various relevant contextual determinants of bullying have been identified, including classroom climate and school climate. However, even if interpersonal relationships are defined broadly in the definitions of classroom and (especially) school climate, its empirical investigation is limited to student–student or student–teacher relationships. In the current study, we included aspects of teacher–teacher relationships in the analyses by investigating staff communication at school. We investigated the associations between staff communication, student–student relationship quality in the classroom, and students’ bullying experiences. In addition, we investigated if staff communication may be indirectly linked to students’ bullying experiences via student–student relationships in the classroom. The sample was drawn from 556 teachers (79% female, Mage = 50.6, SDage = 8.44) and 2,071 students (49% female, Mage = 13.63, SDage = 1.17) in 114 classes across 24 schools in Germany. Two-level- and three-level models were performed. Findings suggest that rivalry as an aspect of student–student relationships in the classroom (a part of the classroom climate) is associated with students’ bullying experiences as bullies, victims, and bully-victims. While staff communication is not directly associated with students’ bullying experiences, it is indirectly associated with it via rivalry in the classroom. The findings also show that staff communication at school is associated with student–student relationships in the classroom. The study has implications for school-wide anti-bullying measures that should also include teacher–teacher aspects, and that future research should endeavour to include both class-level and school-level contexts.

T1 - Parent-teacher collaborations in preventing and tackling bullying and cyberbullying : a systematic review T2 - World Anti-Bullying Forum 2023, October 25–27, 2023, North Carolina, U.S.A. N2 - Introduction Research on bullying prevention and intervention is very often conducted against the theoretical background of socio-ecological models (e.g., the socio-ecological diathesis-stress model; Swearer & Hymel, 2015). This leads to a special focus on different social contexts, without which the complexity of bullying processes cannot be understood. In recent years, the role of the teacher in the bullying process has received special attention in research (Colpin et al, 2021). The importance of the teacher's actions in reducing existing bullying or preventing further bullying has been highlighted in various works, and the need to include teachers in anti-bullying measures and to train them actively in bullying intervention behaviour is emphasised in meta-analyses (Gaffney et al., 2019, 2021; Van Verseveld et al., 2019). When it comes to concrete steps for teachers, many anti-bullying programmes also emphasise the involvement of parents, which in some countries also results from legal requirements. A meta-analysis showed that school-wide anti-bullying programs with a component of parental involvement can be successful in reducing bullying perpetration and victimization (Huang et al., 2019). Furthermore, the involvement of parents is also important against the background of socio-ecological theory models, as parents represent a significant socialisation context. Cooperation between home and school can influence the behaviour of students as an influence from the mesosystem. However, only a few studies go beyond the requirement of such cooperation, and also the information provided on parent components in anti-bullying programs are limited (Huang et al., 2019). The aim of the systematic review is to identify research findings that provide information on the effectiveness and nature of home-school cooperation in bullying prevention and intervention. Method The aim is to identify and analyse literature that looks at 1) both the school context and the family context and 2) the interaction of the two contexts in relation to bullying occurrence, bullying development, bullying prevention and bullying intervention. For this purpose, a systematic literature search is conducted in the databases Cochrane Library, EBSCO, PsycINFO, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. In addition, a call for grey literature will be distributed in relevant networks (e.g., International Society for Research on Aggression, national psychological societies in Germany, Austria, England, and Norway). The search term has not yet been finalised, but will contain the terms "Bully*", "Parent* OR Home" and "School OR teacher", which will be connected by AND. Both qualitative and quantitative studies will be included with no restrictions on the publication period. Publications in English and German will be included (other languages cannot be included, as only one person in the research team speaks another language and thus no double coding can take place). In the coming months, the research group will create and test a detailed coding manual specific for the research questions of the review. The quality assessment will be done through an established tool for qualitative and quantitative publications (e.g., Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool MMAT, Hong et al., 2018). The screening of titles, abstracts, and keywords according to inclusion and exclusion criteria as well as the full coding of the included publications will each be carried out by two persons. Interrater reliability will be calculated. Results Results are not yet available. We will be able to present the first results at the WABF. These will include, in particular, an overview of the identified relevant literature (e.g., number, information on publication types, sample size and country, result of quality assessment) and its research questions, as well as the summary of the identified results. Conclusion Through the systematic review, we will provide an up-to-date, comprehensive overview of the current state of the literature on parent-teacher collaboration in the context of bullying prevention and intervention. Detailed conclusions will be drawn from the initial findings, which can be presented at WABF. Implications for research/practice The comprehensive and up-to-date research review will identify research gaps and provide suggestions for future research on parent-teacher cooperation in the bullying context. By processing findings on the effect of the family and school developmental context on bullying processes when both contexts are considered simultaneously, implications for practice can also be expected. Previous findings call for collaboration between home and school in addressing bullying, and in some cases, as in the meta-analysis by Huang et al. (2019), depict its impact. However, details on the design of this cooperation, on hurdles and challenges, on legal frameworks and on aspects of cooperation that support a successful effect of cooperation are largely missing. By systematically compiling the findings to date, we provide not only academics but also practitioners with an up-to-date overview of the findings. This will enable practitioners to train teachers on collaborating with parents when incidents of bullying has occurred under consideration of recent scientific findings, supporting the practical usage of scientific findings.

The intentional expression of group-related derogation has become more widespread in recent years and potentially bears negative consequences for individuals, communities, and societies (Kansok-Dusche et al., 2023). After the internet, the school is a context where children and adolescents perpetrate and witness HS or become victims of it (Castellanos et al., 2023). However, schools also represent a suitable location to address HS incidents and to prevent future HS. To date, there is limited evidence on the availability, quality, and effectiveness of school-based programs to deal with HS. This systematic review aims to compile a catalog of available school-based programs on HS that particularly target children and adolescents. Two independent reviewers evaluated the programs’ quality on a criteria-driven basis. The quality criteria combine perspectives from science (e.g., Nation et al., 2003) and secondary school teachers, and from students. The perspectives of the school practitioners were collected in qualitative interviews and focus group discussions. Two coders extracted the quality criteria using grounded theory methods. Of the 27 programs identified, 25 originate from Europe. The presentation will provide an overview of the programs and their quality results. Recommendations will be given for program implementation in schools and for further program improvement.
