Reading the Research: Module 8

"The role of supportive friends in reducing bullying"

The Student Learning Outcomes for this course include (1) exposure to empirical findings in the field of human development and (2) application of research findings as they relate to every day life.  Each module I will provide a current example (most often from a peer-reviewed journal article) of research connected to a topic explored in that module. 

 

Significant numbers of children are bullied. A recent study revealed that having supportive friends was linked to a lower level of bullying and victimization. You can read more about these findings at the site below.
