Abstract

VEGA-CAUICH, Julio Isaac. Prevalencia del bullying en México: un meta-análisis del bullying tradicional y cyberbullying. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2019, vol.15, n.1, pp.113-129. ISSN 1794-9998.  https://doi.org/https://doi.org/10.15332/s1794-9998.2019.0015.09.

Objective: Summarize the bullying studies in Mexico to estimate the prevalence for both victims and aggressors, both face-to-face and cyberbullying. Method: A meta-analysis of the prevalence was carried out with 27 investigations carried out in Mexico with a random effects model, and its moderators were explored through a meta-regression. Result: The prevalence ranges were from 19 % to 21 % for cyber-victimization, face-to-face victimization and face-to-face aggression, and 11 % for cyberaggression. The variables that moderated the prevalence estimation were the presence of a definition in the instrument and the number of items. Neither study uses tools that evaluate the power imbalance component of bullying, so it is likely that studies evaluated the concept of peer victimization. Conclusion: One in five Mexican students receives or performs bullying or cyberbyllying. Methodological recommendations are proposed for future research.
