学龄儿童欺负他人的倾向被认为是一个连续的频率，从零到非常高。为了研究可能影响个别学生在这一连续体上的地位的社会因素，对澳大利亚公立男女同校学校的学生进行了问卷调查：小学（N = 200）和中学（N = 200）。他们完成了一些评估措施：(i)欺凌他人的频率；（二）对欺凌受害者的态度和（三）他们认为特定的其他人期望他们支持欺凌受害者的程度。这些人包括母亲、父亲、朋友和老师。多元回归分析表明，对受害者的消极态度和对朋友的感知期望与自我报告的欺凌行为有关（p < 0.001）；此外，男孩比女孩更有可能报告欺凌他人（p < 0.01）。报告欺凌他人只与父母对女孩的期望有关；没有证据表明对教师的预期影响了报告中的欺凌行为。学生对受害者的态度和同龄人的看法可能是至关重要的。支持反欺凌方案，促进对受害者的共情态度和动员同伴影响的方法来对抗欺凌。
The tendency for school children to bully others was conceived as lying along a continuum of frequency, ranging from zero to very high. To examine social factors that may influence the position of individual students on this continuum, questionnaires were administered to Australian school children attending state coeducational schools: primary (N = 200) and secondary (N = 200). They completed measures to assess: (i) frequency of engaging in bullying others; (ii) attitudes towards victims of bullying and (iii) the extent to which they believed specified others expected them to support victims of bullying. Those specified included mother, father, friends and teachers. Multiple regression analyses indicated that negative attitudes to victims and the perceived expectations of friends were associated with self-reported bullying behaviour (p < 0.001); in addition, boys were more likely to report bullying others than girls (p < 0.01). Reporting bullying others was related to perceived expectations of parents for girls only; for neither sex was there evidence that the perceived expectations of teachers influenced reported bullying behaviour. The attitudes students have developed towards victims and the views of their peers may be critical. Anti-bullying programs promoting empathic attitudes to victims and ways of mobilizing peer influence to counter bullying are supported.
