Abstract:
Objective:The study aims to determine the latent class of roles in bullying victimization and perpetration among primary and secondary school students and to explore its relationship with academic achievement and screen use, to provide a reference for developing preventive measures and intervention plans.
Methods:A total of 29 099 students at grade 5,6,7,8,10, and 11 from Shenzhen were surveyed through convenient cluster sampling method by Olweus Bully/Victim Questionnaire. The latent class analysis was used for classifying bully/victim category.
Results:The latent class analysis revealed three classes, the noninvolvement group (low response rate at all items, 80.9%), the bullying victimization group (low response rate at bullying and high response rate at victimization items, 15.9%), and the bullying victimization and perpetration group (high response rate at all items,3.3%). Boys were more likely than girls to belong to the bullying victimization and perpetration at all study sections ( OR =0.83,0.74, 0.47 , P <0.05). Transfer students were at higher risk to be in the bullying victimization group in elementary and middle school ( OR = 1.21 ,1.21), while they were more likely to fall into the bullying victimization and perpetration group in high school ( OR =2.65)( P < 0.05). Students with poor academic performance were more likely to be in the bullying victimization group at all sections ( OR = 0.98 ,0.98,0.98) and in the bullying victimization and perpetration group at elementary and middle school ( OR =0.97, 0.98)( P < 0.05 ). Students spending longer time on screen had elevated risk in the bullying victimization group ( OR =1.06,1.04,1.08, P < 0.05 ).
Conclusion:Students with poor academic achievement and prolonged screen time are at higher risks to be involved in bullying victimization and perpetration. Collaboration between home and school are needed to preventing bullying victimization perpetration.
