RESUMEN

Background: Bullying as a construct is found to be related to a variety of individual, parental and academic factors. Familial factors include family environment, parenting style and parental involvement. The main aim of this study is to find out how Primary and Secondary Education students perceive parenting styles and social climate and if there are differences between pupils from these two educational stages.

School social climate and Family social climate were both evaluated using the Spanish version of Moos’ Family Social Climate Scale, and Parenting styles were evaluated according to the Parental Socialization Scale in Adolescence (ESPA29). Roles associated with bullying, and correlates of social reputation were measured using the Bull-S questionnaire. Results: There are differences in how primary and secondary education students perceive parenting styles and family climate. Conclusions: Parental factors are related to bullying victimization and socio-affective group variables (social preference, acceptance or rejection levels, and the number of friends). The study highlighs risk and protective factors for victimization (AU)

RESUMEN

Los medios siguen llevando a la opinión pública situaciones de acoso escolar, en algunas ocasiones con consecuencias devastadoras. Desde hace más de una década, desde la oficina del Defensor del Pueblo, se viene alertando de la necesidad de una intervención preventiva. Desde la práctica psicoeducativa somos conscientes de los efectos tan negativos que produce la vivencia de situaciones de bullying tanto en el sujeto que agrede, pues afianza su comportamiento violento, como en quienes son victimizados por las consecuencias negativas para su desarrollo personal y social, así como en los observadores que apenas hacen nada por ayudar a resolver la situación y con frecuencia pasan a formar parte del grupo de agresores y, en cualquier caso, no desarrollan habilidades sociales como la empatía o la colaboración. El trabajo que presentamos recoge la experiencia de la aplicación de un programa de prevención basado en la propuesta del programa CIP, en un centro de Educación Primaria, con los 23 alumnos de un grupo de segundo ciclo (edad 8-10 años), durante los cursos escolares 2011-2012. Mediante el test re-retest se comprobó la eficacia del programa. Se observó una mayor concienciación ante el problema y la mejora en las relaciones interpersonales (AU)

Bullying is a phenomenon that Media still take to the public opinion and coated sometimes devastating. For more than a decade, from the Spanish Ombudsman Office, has been warning of the need for preventive action. Psychological and educative practices we are aware of such negative effects resulting of living bullying situations for both the assaults, because reinforces violent behavior, and the victims for the negative consciences for their personal and social development. But also for the observers that almost do nothing for coping the situation and usually they take part for the bully. In any case, this difficult the development of social strategies such as empathy or cooperation, but increasingly are more insensitive to the pain suffered by others. The present paper reflects the experience of the implementation of a prevention program based on the CIP proposed program with the 23 pupils of an intact group of second stage (aged 8-10) of a Primary School during 2011 and 2012 school years. With a test re-test methodology we checked the efficacy of the program. There was a greater awareness to the problem and improving interpersonal relationships (AU)
