This pilot study investigates the effectiveness of a school judo program as an alternative intervention model for bullying prevention. Conducted with 61 schoolchildren aged 10 to 13, the study employed psychological tests and a structured judo curriculum to assess changes in anxiety levels, bullying roles, and psychological traits. Results revealed a significant reduction in situational anxiety and a trend towards decreased personal anxiety among participants. Additionally, a significant decrease in direct and indirect victimization was observed, although no substantial changes were noted in bullying behaviors themselves. Improvements in self-assessment levels of trust, self-awareness, emotion regulation, confidence, and communication skills were also reported. These findings suggest that integrating judo into school programs may enhance psychological resilience and contribute to a safer school environment. However, further research is needed to explore the long-term effects and additional strategies for addressing bullying behaviors directly.
本研究旨在探讨学校柔道项目作为一种替代干预模式在预防欺凌方面的有效性。研究对象为 61 名 10 至 13 岁的学生，采用心理测试和结构化柔道课程来评估焦虑水平、欺凌角色和心理特征的变化。结果表明，参与者的情境焦虑显著降低，个人焦虑呈下降趋势。此外，直接和间接受害的情况也显著减少，尽管欺凌行为本身没有明显变化。参与者的自我评估水平在信任、自我意识、情绪调节、信心和沟通技巧方面也有所提高。这些发现表明，将柔道融入学校项目可能会增强心理韧性，有助于营造更安全的学校环境。然而，需要进一步研究来探索长期效果和直接解决欺凌行为的其他策略。
