LEVANDOSKI, Gustavo  y  LUIZ CARDOSO, Fernando. Body image and social status of Brazilian students involved in bullying. rev.latinoam.psicol. [online]. 2013, vol.45, n.1, pp.135-145. ISSN 0120-0534.

The aim of this study was to verify the bullying involvement among scholars as well as compare them in relation to the corporal image and the social status in the school environment. Took part in this study 337 children, being 184 boys and 153 girls, with average age of 12.77 years old, regularly enrolled at the last year of elementary public school in Florianópolis - BR. The Questionnaire for the Study of the Violence among Pears, a sociometric analysis, Scale for body image, and Scale for social status in the school environment were used. The data analysis was made using descriptive and inferential statistics, adopting p ≤ .05. It was found that 28.3% of children involved with bullying, being 14,1, 4,3, and 9,8% were victims (V), aggressors/victims (AV) and aggressors (A), respectively. There is no diference among them in relation to the current and ideal self-image, but the study shows that more (V) and (AV) would like to be physically larger, and the (A) are more satisfed with their corporal image and also have a higher popularity among peers in the class room (V) and (AV). It is important to consider that the self-image and the corporal perception, as well as, the social position interfere in the bulling action among (A) and (V).

Palabras clave : bullying; corporal image; social status; adolescent; exercise.
