La violencia escolar en la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria desde la perspectiva del alumnado gallego

Abstract

The consolidation of violence in educational centers, has aroused a great concern in the educational and scientific communities. Therefore, the main objective of the study is to identify the types of violence more and less common in the compulsory secondary education in Galicia, from the perception of the students. The CUVE3-CSE questionnaire (Álvarez-García, Núñez & Dobarro, 2012) was applied to a sample consisting of 4943 secondary students between 12 and 17 years (M = 14.05; DT = 1.39). The results of the descriptive analysis show the most common types of school violence: disruption in the classroom, verbal violence between students and violence exercised by the teachers to the students; and with less assiduity: indirect physical violence, social exclusion and violence through the new information and communication technologies. In conclusion, the various forms of school violence do appear to a greater or lesser extent in compulsory secondary education centers, although the values found in this study remain low
