Abstract

BONILLA-SANTOS, Jasmín et al. Performance of social cognition in boys and girls immersed in the dynamics of bullying in the city of Neiva, Huila (Colombia). Psychol. av. discip. [online]. 2019, vol.13, n.2, pp.13-24.  Epub Jan 15, 2021. ISSN 1900-2386.  https://doi.org/10.21500/19002386.3584.

The objective of this research was to compare the performance of social cognition tests in the profiles of boys and girls linked to bullying in a public educational institution in the city of Neiva. With a cross-type design and through a non-probabilistic sampling of intentional type, 103 primary school students selected according to the eligibility criteria were evaluated. The results showed a higher frequency of children who identified themselves as observers-victims and a lower performance in faux pas-boobs, strange stories by Happé and a comparison test by profiles of bullying and age. The results suggest deepening studies that relate school life and the development of social cognition with sociodemographic and cultural characteristics in the population studied.

Keywords : Social cognition; theory of mind; bullying; school children.
