Title: Bullying in a Cambodian Private School
Author: Am, Kunthy
Abstract: Bullying has been an issue faced by many school children in the West and the research on school bullying began in the late 1970's in Norway and Sweden. Researchers have studied this topic in many countries,but only one international researcher was identified who had done research on this topic in the Cambodian context. In this present study, the researcher explored the understanding of children in relation to bullying behaviors they had observed at their school. The study was conducted in one private school in Phnom Penh where 151 children participated. Data was collected using structured interviews, a pen and paper survey, and through picture drawings where the students reported on the types and locations of student to student actions they deemed bullying in their school. Students' perceptions of the impact of bullying on the victims was also collected and analysed. The results of the study indicated that there were various forms of bullying happening at this school and that the children's understanding of bullying included single acts of violence rather than repeated acts as is the commonly used definition for bullying.
