The purpose was to assess the prevalence of students' experience of verbal abuse and its effects on school satisfaction and well-being from a gender perspective. Attention was paid to age differences.
The study population consisted of all students in grades 6 and 8 in a Swedish city. A total of 1,006 students, ages 12-15, completed a self-administered questionnaire (response rate 84 percent).
Boys reported experiencing insults and threats to a greater extent, whereas girls more frequently experienced sexualized name-calling, specifically "whore". Both genders reported boys as perpetrators of verbal abuse most often. Further, girls generally reported lower levels of school satisfaction and well-being, while verbal abuse had a negative effect on the well-being of both genders.
Verbal abuse between students is a predominantly masculine practice, more pronounced among older students. It impacts negatively on the school satisfaction and well-being of both girls and boys and does not have to be frequent, repeated, or combined with other kinds of harassment to have this effect.
目的是从性别角度评估学生遭受言语虐待的发生率及其对学校满意度和幸福感的影响。关注了年龄差异。
研究对象包括瑞典一个城市所有六年级和八年级的学生。共有1006名年龄在12至15岁的学生完成了一份自填式问卷(回复率84%)。
男孩报告遭受侮辱和威胁的程度更高,而女孩更频繁地经历带有性暗示的辱骂,特别是“妓女”。两性都报告称男孩最常是言语虐待的实施者。此外,女孩总体上报告的学校满意度和幸福感较低,而言语虐待对两性的幸福感都有负面影响。
学生之间的言语虐待主要是男性行为,在年龄较大的学生中更为明显。它对女孩和男孩的学校满意度和幸福感都有负面影响,而且不一定频繁、重复或与其他形式的骚扰相结合才会产生这种影响。
