Bullying Clinical Trial
Official title:
KiVa Anti-bullying Program in Chile: Evaluation of Effectiveness With and Without the Digital Game Component
Bullying is a major problem worldwide and, with no exception, in Chile. Bullying is defined
as a systematic aggressive behavior against a victim who cannot defend himself or herself.
Victims suffer many consequences such as social isolation, psychological maladjustment, and
self-injury behavior. Additionally, bullies have a higher risk for conduct problems and
substance use disorders. These problems appear to last in time, affecting mental health even
years later since the experience of bullying.
There are few studies in Chile aiming to determine the prevalence of bullying. In one of such
studies, 47% of the students reported having been bullied during the last month before the
application of the questionnaire. Even though there are many initiatives and guidelines in
Chile supported by the government to help schools in order to deal with bullying, there is no
any cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) aiming to assess the effectiveness of an
anti-bullying program.
KiVa anti-bullying prevention program contains universal and indicated actions. Main
universal actions for 5 to 6 graders consist of 10 two-hours lessons given during a year and
an online game, which have the aim to raise awareness of the role of the group in bullying,
increase empathy and promote strategies to support victims. Indicated actions consist of a
set of discussion groups with the victims and with the bullies with proper follow-up.
The aims of this study are: 1) To develop a culturally appropriate version of the Kiva
material, and 2) to test its effectiveness of KiVa program with and without the online game,
to reduce bullying behavior among low-income primary schools in Santiago using a cluster RCT
design with three arms: i) KiVa full program group, ii) KiVa without online game program
group, and iii) Control group.
