本研究的目的是评估一种简短的旁观者欺凌干预在减少学生(N=65)内化症状方面的效果。尽管目睹欺凌与心理健康风险有关，但大多数关于旁观者干预的研究都集中在这些项目对减少全校欺凌的影响上，而不是改善那些接受过干预培训的人的情绪结果。结果表明，与对照组的学生相比，接受过简短的旁观者欺凌干预的高中生在内化症状方面报告的内在化症状从基线到三个月的随访中有更大的下降。此外，性别缓和的干预效果使得内化症状的减少只对女性有显著意义。讨论了针对高中生的校本反欺凌计划的意义。
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a brief, bystander bullying intervention on reducing internalizing symptoms among students (N = 65). Although witnessing bullying is associated with mental health risks, the majority of research on bystander interventions focuses on the impact of these programs on school-wide bullying reduction rather than improved emotional outcomes for those trained to intervene. Results indicated high school students trained in a brief, bystander bullying intervention reported greater decreases in internalizing symptoms from baseline to a three-month follow-up compared to students in a control group. Further, gender moderated intervention effects such that differences in decreases in internalizing symptoms were significant for females only. Implications for school-based anti-bullying programs for high school students are discussed.
