| Abstract: | Over the years, literature on the phenomenon of bullying has evolved from treating bullying as an individual behavior to understanding
it as a group process. Other than those of the bully and the victim, researchers have identified several roles children assume
in bullying situations, with some assuming a pro-social role, often called the defender, in bullying scenarios. Practice literature continues to concentrate its attention narrowly on the bully and the victim,
rather than on defenders. Understanding the individual and social circumstances related to defending suggests new avenues
for practitioners interested in promoting improved peer relations in schools. |
