THE ROLE OF PSYCHOEDUCATION SERVICES IN PREVENTING BULLYING BEHAVIOR AMONG ADOLESCENTS

Abstract

Bullying is characterized as a recurrent pattern of aggressive behavior wherein an individual or collective deliberately inflicts physical, verbal, or psychological harm upon another individual. This phenomena frequently manifests among adolescents, when they engage in the act of making impolite and exaggerated jokes towards their friends, often without recognizing that such behavior is an act of bullying. This study will examine the significance of psychoeducation services in mitigating instances of bullying behavior among adolescents. The present study used the technique of Literature Systematic Review (LSR) utilizing the PRISMA framework. Initially, the researchers sought out reputable journals from reputable sources such as DOAJ and Scopus. They initially identified 416 articles. However, after applying the PRISMA approach, they identified 6 publications that were relevant to the variables under investigation. Through an examination of extant scholarly literature, it has been determined that psychoeducational interventions have a significant role in cultivating psychological and emotional comprehension pertaining to the phenomenon of bullying.
