Bullying Intervention in Adolescence: The Intersection of Legislation, Policies, and Behavioral Change
AbstractThis article reviews current research on bullying during adolescence. The complexity of bullying behaviors during the adolescent time period are discussed and a review of the developmental literature on adolescence provides suggestions for why current bullying prevention and intervention programs are less effective for this age group. Current anti-bullying policies and legislation are reviewed under a framework of adolescent brain develop-ment and the development of consequential thinking. Suggestions for implementing social-emotional learning programming during the adolescent period are provided and a novel approach using social media is presented. In order to effectively combat bullying during this develop-mental period, programming must focus of positive behavioral development and restorative practices.
