|a The present study investigated the strategies used by teachers in response to a hypothetical bullying situation. Participants were 69 White and Hispanic schoolteachers recruited from a school district in South Florida. Teachers were given Bauman, Rigby, and Hoppa’s (2008) 22-item revised form of the Handling Bullying Questionnaire (HBQ) via the online Survey Monkey website. Analyses examined their use of three strategies: Disciplining the bully, working with the victim, and Ignoring the incident. Data were analyzed using independent sample t-tests. The study tested the hypotheses that there would be no difference between White and Hispanic teachers’ endorsement of strategies on the Disciplining the bully, working with the victim, and Ignoring the victim scales of the revised Handling Bullying Questionnaire. The results indicated that there was no significant difference between White and Hispanic teachers on the Disciplining the bully and the Working with the victim scales. White and Hispanic teachers’ responses indicated that they endorsed similar strategies when viewing a bullying scenario. The results of this study support previous research indicating that increasing teacher awareness, training, and preparation are essential in dealing with bullying situations. |
