Abstract
VALDES CUERVO, Ángel Alberto and CARLOS MARTINEZ, Ernesto Alonso. Relationship between Social Self-Concept, Family Climate and School Climate with Bullying in Secondary Students. Av. Psicol. Latinoam. [online]. 2014, vol.32, n.3, pp.447-457. ISSN 1794-4724. https://doi.org/dx.doi.org/10.12804/apl32.03.2014.07.
The study determined the relationship between the variables social self, family climate and school climate with the presence of bullying in public high school students of a northwestern state of Mexico. From a total of 930 students who were surveyed 195 were selected to participate in the study (20.1 %), who reported an average of three or more aggressive behaviors toward peers during the last month. Using a multiple linear regression it was determined that the variables School Climate (standardized Beta = - .491) and Family Climate (standardized Beta = - .407), explain a significant portion of violence among students (R2 = .74). The fact that school and family variables were significantly related to bullying revealed the usefulness of the ecological approach in the analysis of the problem.
