“…The witnesses are more likely to intervene in an assault if the victim and the bully are of the same sex as them (Hawkins, Pepler , & Craig, 2001). There is a positive relationship between high scores in Masculinity and aggressive behavior in both sexes (Gini & Pozzoli, 2006, Young & Sweating, 2004. Cognitive development in preschool predicts aggressive or disruptive behavior in boys, while in girls it predicts prosocial behavior (Walker, 2005).…”

“…This has been related with the socio-affective resource competition proposed by the social dominance theory (Hawley, 1999). In this sense, it has been observed that boys overtly bully other boys to be accepted by the most aggressive and popular ones, trying to demonstrate competence and be considered as masculine, and so ascend in the social hierarchy (Gini & Pozzoli, 2006;Olthof & Goosens, 2008). So they also avoid any behavior that could be considered feminine, and victimization due to deviations from the gender stereotype.…”

“…Hasil penelitian ini sejalan dengan penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Nansel dkk., 2001 dalam (Milsom & Gallo, 2006) yang menyatakan bahwa terdapat perbedaan perilaku perundungan yang ditunjukkan oleh siswa laki-laki dan siswa perempuan Sekolah Dasar. Siswa laki-laki lebih lebih tertarik pada kegiatan fisik dan tertantang untuk menunjukkan agresivitasnya dengan asumsi maskulinitas (Gini & Pozzoli, 2006).…”
