PEREZ RUBIO, Julliette. How do Teachers' Characteristics Influence Bullying at School?. Desarro. soc. [online]. 2016, n.77, pp.183-230. ISSN 0120-3584.  https://doi.org/10.13043/DYS.77.5.

Bullying is a problem which generates several physical and psychological complications to the victim and even it could cause inferior results in the adulthood because it has a negative effect in the accumulation of cognitive and non-cognitive skills. This work uses a probit model to study the relationship between some observable features of teachers such as their satisfaction at school, experience and educational level with the probability of their students of being bullied using the data of the international test PIRLS 2011 of more than two hundred thousand students in 47 countries. Also, it is evaluated whether the victims of bullying exhibit a worse academic achievement compared to non-victims. The results show that teachers who are more satisfied and have more human capital are related with the diminution in the probability of their students of being bullied. Additionally, pupils who are bullied have a worse performance in PIRLS 2011 and this effect is larger for males.
