T HE L OGIC : W HY INVEST IN B ULLYING P REVENTION ? The National School Safety Center (NSSC) called bullying the most enduring and underrated problem in U.S. schools. (Beale, 2001) Victims and perpetrators of bullying are more likely to skip and/or drop out of school. (Berthold & Hoover, 2000; Neary & Joseph, 1994 ) 84.6% of LGBT students reported being verbally harassed, 40.1% reported being physically harassed and 18.8% reported being physically assaulted at school in the past year because of their sexual orientation GLSEN, 2009) Nearly 30 percent of students have reported being involved in bullying as either a perpetrator or a victim (Cook, Williams, Guerra, & Kim, 2010; Nansel, et al., 2001; Swearer & Espelage, 2004) Victims and perpetrators of bullying are more likely to suffer from underachievement and sub-potential performance in employment settings. (Carney & Merrell, 2001; NSSC, 1995) Students on the autism spectrum are more likely to be victimized than their non-disabled peers (Little, 2002) 40-60% of students with intellectual disabilities report being bullied. But not at a level of intensity or chronicity that differs from typically developing adolescent ( Christensen, Fraynt, Neece & Baker, 2012)

W HAT IS B ULLYING ? “Bullying” is repeated aggression, harassment, threats or intimidation when one person has greater status or power than the another. Bullying is behavior, not a trait, or diagnosis, or a person. \

W HAT D OES IT L OOK L IKE ? Physical aggression Repeated acts of isolation Name calling (discrimina tion, etc.) Cyber bullying Rumors Threats

W HAT R EINFORCES B ULLYING ? What rewards Bullying Behavior? Likely many different rewards are effective Most common are: Attention from bystanders Attention and reaction of “victim” Self-delivered praise Obtaining objects (food, clothing) Bullying is seldom maintained by feedback from adults Scott Ross, University of Oregon

R ESEARCH S UMMARY : P RACTICES THAT DO NOT W ORK W ELL Profiling approaches Zero tolerance policies Suspensions / Punitive disciplinary approaches Peer mediation Stand alone curriculum Bullying groups Motivational Speakers, Anti-Bully posters/Campaigns Labeling students
11
R ESEARCH S UMMARY : P ROBLEMS WITH CURRENT B ULLYING P REVENTION PROGRAMS Problem #1: Many bullying prevention programs focus on only the bully and the victim Problem #2: Inadvertent “teaching of bullying” with possible contraindicated practices Problem #3: Blame the bully Problem #4: Ignore role of “bystanders” Problem #5: Initial effects gained without sustained impact Problem #6: Expensive effort
12
P REVENTION OF B ULLYING B EHAVIOR I NVOLVES B OTH : teaching all students the skills needed to meet their social needs without bullying, and changing aspects of the school culture that may promote aggressive behavior …two components that are often lacking in typical anti- bullying programs (Olweus, 2003).

STOP WALK TALK

I MPLEMENTING B ULLYING P REVENTION : STEPS FOR S TAFF AND S TUDENTS Step 1: Teach Respect School-wide Step 2: Select a stop signal Step 3: Train the staff Step 4: Orient then Train all students in the skills/routines (confirm with practice) Stop Walk Talk/Recruiting Help
19
S TOP R OUTINE If you encounter behavior that is NOT respectful Say and Show “STOP” Talk to an Adult Stop -------- Walk -------- Talk Walk Away
20
R ECRUITING H ELP R OUTINE : T EACH WALK / TALK Walk Away: Remember that walking away removes the attention for problem behavior Encourage students to support one another when they use the appropriate Stop Walk Talk response Talk
21
S TOPPING R OUTINE Eventually, every student will be told to stop. When this happens, they should do the following things Stop what you are doing Take a deep breath Go about your day (“no big deal”) These steps should be followed even when you don’t agree with the “stop” message.
22
B YSTANDER S TOP R OUTINE Remember : Even if all you do is “watch” a bad situation, you are providing attention that rewards disrespectful behavior. If you see someone else being treated disrespectfully: Say and show “stop” to the person being disrespectful Offer to take the other person away for a little bit. If they do not want to go, that is okay…just walk away.

F OR F ACULTY /S TAFF : C ORE F EATURES OF AN E FFECTIVE B ULLYING P REVENTION E FFORT 1) Agreement on logic/need for bullying prevention effort 2) Strategy for teaching students core skills 3) Strategy for follow-up and consistency in responding 4) Clear data collection and data use process 5) Advanced support options 6) Plan for effective implementation of bullying prevention.
24
F ACULTY R ESPONSE P ROCEDURE When any problem behavior is reported, adults follow a specific response sequence: Ensure the student’s safety. Determine if “stop” response was used Determine if “stop” response was followed As needed, re-teach the responses to all students involved
