Abstract

Bullying is a severe problem in Indonesia. West Java has a higher rate of bullying cases, where Bandung City is the highest rating among other districts in West Java. This study aims to explore school bullying in Bandung City from the perspective of the bullied students. This study will help to get a better understanding of the reasons students being bullied, locations of bullying incidents in school, and to whom students reported being bullied at schools. This article hopefully will contribute to helping stop bullying at school. Samples of this study were elementary school students age 10-14 year-olds (N = 329; 46.2% boys; 53.8% girls). Samples were chosen randomly using a stratified cluster random sampling technique. Instruments used in this study were from Children’s Worlds Survey, which have been adapted into Indonesian. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. All calculations were done with SPSS version 23. Results showed that physical condition and appearance are the reasons for girls being bullied while being well-known at school and religion are the reasons for boys being bullied. Bullying incidents mostly happen in the classroom and the school corridor. Students were preferring to tell parents about being bullied at school rather than telling the teacher.
