摘要 文献表明，排斥会强制遵守群体规范：它维持群体的稳定性、凝聚力和安全性，因此有助于维持群体的顺利运作。为此，可以首先采用各种惩罚行为，但如果这些行为不成功，个人可能会被永久排除在外。因此，即使一个人没有被排除在群体之外，也可能成为排斥的对象：如果群体的惩罚行为说服个人改变他们的行为，那么这个过程就已经发挥了作用并将停止。在对成年聋哑人的回顾性叙述进行定性分析时，出现了这种可能性：学校中的一些欺凌行为可能是这一过程的结果。这导致了对相关文献和一组用于重新分析数据的代码的审查。研究结果表明，一些群体欺凌行为确实可以被理解为排斥。
Abstract The literature suggests that ostracism coerces conformity to group norms: It maintains the stability, cohesion and safety of the group, and therefore helps maintain the smooth functioning of a group. To this end, a wide range of punishing behaviours may first be employed but if these are not successful, the individual may be permanently excluded. Therefore a person may be the subject of ostracism even if not excluded from the group: Where the punishing behaviours of the group persuade an individual to change their behaviour, the process will have served its function and will cease. The possibility that some bullying at school may be the result of this process emerged during the qualitative analysis of retrospective accounts from adults who are deaf. This resulted in a review of the relevant literature and a set of codes which were employed to reanalyse the data. The findings suggest that some bullying in groups can indeed be understood as ostracism.
