Research on perceived school safety has been largely limited to studies conducted in Western countries and there has been a lack of large-scale cross-national studies on the topic.
The present study examined the occurrence of adolescents who felt unsafe at school and the associated factors of perceived school safety in 13 Asian and European countries. The data were based on 21,688 adolescents aged 13-15 (11,028 girls, 10,660 boys) who completed self-administered surveys between 2011 and 2017. Logistic regression analyses were used to estimate odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals.
The number of adolescents who felt unsafe at school varied widely across countries, with a mean occurrence of 31.4% for the total sample: 31.3% for girls, and 31.1% for boys. The findings revealed strong independent associations between feeling unsafe and individual and school-related factors, such as being bullied, emotional and behavioral problems and feeling that teachers did not care. The study also found large variations in perceived school safety between schools in many countries.
The findings emphasize the need to create safe educational environments for all students, based on positive relationships with teachers and peers. School-based interventions to prevent bullying and promote mental health should be a natural part of school safety promotion.
关于学校安全感的研究主要局限于西方国家开展的研究，且缺乏针对该主题的大规模跨国研究。
本研究调查了13个亚洲和欧洲国家中感觉在学校不安全的青少年的发生率以及学校安全感的相关因素。数据基于2011年至2017年间完成自我管理调查的21688名13 - 15岁青少年（11028名女孩，10660名男孩）。采用逻辑回归分析来估计比值比和95%置信区间。
各国感觉在学校不安全的青少年数量差异很大，总样本的平均发生率为31.4%：女孩为31.3%，男孩为31.1%。研究结果揭示了感觉不安全与个体及学校相关因素之间存在强烈的独立关联，如遭受欺凌、情绪和行为问题以及感觉教师不关心等。该研究还发现许多国家不同学校之间在学校安全感方面存在很大差异。
研究结果强调需要基于与教师和同伴的积极关系为所有学生营造安全的教育环境。基于学校的预防欺凌和促进心理健康的干预措施应成为学校安全促进工作的自然组成部分。
