Abstract

ABSTRACT Whereas most research has focused on the influence of teachers on student engagement, we postulate that peer experiences – particularly bullying behavior as a victim or perpetrator – impact student engagement over time. Using a sample of 525 adolescents (46% female, mean age = 13.51) nested within 31 classrooms from Chilean schools selected by convenience sampling design, we examined the relationship between victim and perpetrator on student engagement. Concurrently, we examined school bonding as a predictor of student engagement as well as its potential role as a protective factor. Our results indicated that perpetration predicted students’ cognitive engagement (at the individual level), whereas both being a victim (at the individual level) and school bonding (at the individual and classroom levels) predicted emotional engagement. However, classroom-level school bonding did not moderate the relationship between bullying and student engagement. Our study highlights the importance of building positive school climates for improving student engagement.

欺负行为和学校纽带预测智利青少年学生参与度

摘要尽管大多数研究都集中在教师对学生参与度的影响上，但我们假设同伴经历——尤其是作为受害者或施暴者的欺凌行为——会随着时间的推移影响学生的参与度。通过便利抽样设计，我们对智利学校31间教室内的525名青少年（46%为女性，平均年龄=13.51）进行了抽样调查，研究了受害者和施暴者在学生参与度方面的关系。同时，我们研究了学校纽带作为学生参与度的预测因素及其作为保护因素的潜在作用。我们的研究结果表明，犯罪行为预测了学生的认知参与（在个人层面），而作为受害者（在个人层次）和学校纽带（在个人和课堂层面）都预测了情绪参与。然而，课堂层面的学校纽带并不能缓和欺凌和学生参与之间的关系。我们的研究强调了营造积极的学校氛围对提高学生参与度的重要性。
