Interventions That Failed: Factors Associated with the Continuation of Bullying After a Targeted Intervention

Abstract: We examined how often teachers’ targeted interventions fail in stopping bullying and to what extent this varies between schools vs. between students involved. In addition, we investigated which student-level factors were associated with intervention failure. Data were collected annually in 2011–2016 via online questionnaires and included responses from students in 2107 Finnish primary and secondary schools implementing the KiVa antibullying program. During the years of the study, 27% of the 57,835 students who… Show more

“…First, defending behaviors may be less likely to end bullying in cases of severe victimization.

“…Another possible solution is to provide micro-financing opportunities or monetary benefits to female students upon completion of their education to improve the current situation and increase access to education for girls (Mujahid et al 2015). Johander et al (2023) emphasized the importance of long-term interventions with continuous follow-up for improved effectiveness, as opposed to short-term interventions. The lack of significant results observed in the present study may be due to the limited duration of the intervention program.…”
