Campus 2019-2020
CHAPTER I
Introduction
There’s a lot of people who experience bullying. Bullying starts in early age. Students

starts to experience bullying in school. Bullying different ways of harming them physically and

emotionally. All bullies start up words like harsh words and insulting behaviors to tease the

victim or student that may name-calling, Bullying is a very serious in our country. The student

may be criticized through his religion, disability, physical appearance, and social background. In

any area of the school bullying may occur, it may be in comfort rooms, classrooms, parking lots,

canteen, or even on school group work activities after school hours. The effects of school

bullying are widespread issues where it may be interpreted by a student positively or negatively,

depending on the victim’s perspective. The DEPED should be doing an action about this.

Nowadays bullying also lead to depression and anxiety it is most likely to a teenager. Bullying

has effects on their academics also it has a big impact in their lives, sometimes they want to

suicide because of bullying. A wide range of inappropriate behaviors of students increases the

chance for more students to think that it’s fun to bully their classmates and as it goes on, it is

repeated over time. The bullies intend to mock, humiliated intimidate the victims. All of the

students do not deserve to suffer from these unseemly behaviors from those who bully their own

schoolmates.
Background of the Study

According to Baldry (2004) bullying others directly by hitting, threatening, or calling

names is not a significant predictor the poor mental and somatic health of youngsters, whereas

indirect bullying (spreading rumors or not talking to someone on purpose) does significantly

predict anxiety and depression, as well as withdrawn behaviors. The negative impact of

victimization and bullying is buffered by youngster’s positive relationship with one or both

parents. Recommendation are provided with regard to possible intervention strategies underlying

the importance of distinguishing between different forms of bullying and victimization and

providing social support in each different case.

According to Arseneault, L. B. S. S. (2010) victim of bullying (1) is not a random event

and can be predicted by individual characteristics and family factors; (2) can be stable across

ages; (3) is associated with severe symptoms of mental health problems, including self-harm,

violent behavior and psychotic symptoms (4) has long-lasting effects that can persist until late

adolescence; and (5) contributes independently to children’s mental health problems. Bullying

can have a variety of short and long term effects for both the victim and a bully.

Base in our point of view we should stop bullying because it can lead to many symptoms.

And if we can’t stop that bullying many teenagers will probably affected to it. Bullying is wrong.

It’s never ok of course it never makes you look good by doing it. You always have a choice. Be

the person that is smart enough and confident enough to be friends with everyone you meet. By

doing so, you’re sending the message that you’re self-assured enough not to care what others

may think.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

This chapter gives an information and ideas to tell what is mental bullying is. These is the way

of giving some information to the present study.

Foreign Literature

The academic performance of the children can be affected by bullying. Children

being bullied find it hard to concentrate on their schoolwork (Hurley, 2018). One of the

major signs of a child being bullied is of the slipping grades. The children are normally

preoccupied with bullying that they end up forgetting about their schoolwork or even find it

hard to pay attention in class. Also, bullied children may end up skipping classes or school

to evade being bullied. This may lead to the children failing in their exams. When the child

starts failing the stress levels increases adding to the stress being experienced through

bullying. The major reason why bullied children get lower scores in school is that they are

normally less involved in the learning process as they are too worried or distracted about

bullying.he Academic Performance of the Children Can be Affected by Bullying

 REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

Foreign Literarture

The problem of bullying in Australian schools is significant, with approximately one

student in every six said to be bullied by their peers at school each week (Rigby, 1998). Bullying

can negatively impact upon a child's life both physically and psychologically. Children who are

bullied are more likely to report physical ill health, experience lowered self‐esteem (some

become significantly depressed), have few friends and tend to avoid school on a regular basis

(Rigby, 1999). In line with these findings, an increasing number of researchers have recognised

that bullying needs to be addressed and have evaluated a range of anti‐bullying programs in

schools across many countries.

The most comprehensive and influential anti‐bullying school‐based initiative was

developed by Olweus (1993) and aimed to manipulate the school social environment by setting

clear rules against bullying, implementing salient consequences for bullying, and increasing

playground supervision. The introduction of this program across 42 schools in Bergen, Norway

brought about significant decreases in the rates of bullying. However, later studies attempting to

replicate these results have showed modest and inconsistent effects. For example, Roland

(2000) reports on a later initiative across Norway in which 40 schools received a package

outlining practical approaches to counter bullying, including recommendations for direct

communication to students who bully and their parents, support for the victims of bullying, and

classroom discussions of bullying. One region demonstrated a halving of reported bullying 2 

years later, but another region demonstrated a slight increase in the rates of bullying. While

Roland argued that the poorer results may be due to the lack of support for the schools, results

from the Flemish Antibullying Intervention showed that varying the level of support for schools
did not have an effect on outcome (Stevens, De Bourdeaudhuij & Oost, 2000). The Flemish

study found that a school‐based strategy that included classroom activities to increase awareness

of bullying and active problem solving for those students directly involved in bullying had a

significant impact on later reports of bullying in primary schools but not in secondary schools.

Contrary to these findings, an intervention programme conducted in Italian schools that raised

awareness of the negative effects of violence both in the school, at home and in the community

generally showed more positive effects on direct forms of bullying in older (14–16 years) as

opposed to younger (10–13 year) students (Baldry & Farrington, 2004). In the

USA, Meraviglia et al. (2003) investigated the effect of a programme for 5th grade students that

aimed to reduce the social acceptance of bullying and sexual harassment, through staff and

parent education, policy development and classroom activities. While students in the intervention

condition did not demonstrate an increase in their knowledge of bullying behaviours, the

intervention group reported more bullying at school and on the bus following the programme. In

Australia, Peterson and Rigby (1999) reported the outcome of an anti‐bullying intervention in a

secondary school.

 REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

Foreign Literature

According to Bannik, S. B., P. L. J., F.W., (2014) Traditional bullying victimization is associated

with an increased risk of suicidal ideation, whereas traditional, as well as cyber bullying

victimization is associated with an increased risk of mental health problems among girls. These

findings stress the importance of programs aimed at reducing bullying behavior, especially

because early-onset mental health problems may pose a risk for the development of psychiatric

disorders in adulthood.

 REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

Local Literature

The pen is mightier than the sword or so the adage goes. When this was once said, it was

to highlight the power of thoughts and ideas over brute force and violence as a way to effect

change. Today, the pen can very well be a tap of a button, as social media has reinvented our

way of life anew — for good or for bad.

Regardless of political affiliation or social philosophy, it is undeniable how the power of

social media has shaped recent events. The perceived anonymity that social media brings tends

to shed people’s normal sensibilities or even basic civility. We therefore sometimes see posts or

commentaries meant to embarrass competence and intelligence, gender or just plain rumour

mongering.

Such acts done behind the cloak of a social media platform may have legal implications

under Philippine Laws.
