Abstract

:The current study aimed to investigate the attitudes of students at Karak University College towards the factors leading to bullying and its various effects, in addition to revealing the extent to which these attitudes differ based on variables such as gender, specialization, and place of residence. The study relied on the correlational descriptive method, and the sample size was 352 male and female students. To achieve the study's objectives, a special scale was designed and developed to measure students' attitudes towards the factors leading to bullying and its effects; The study's results indicated that students' attitudes towards the factors leading to bullying and its consequences were high. The results also revealed statistically significant differences in students' attitudes attributed to the gender variable (in favor of males), the academic level variable (in favor of second-year students), and the place of residence variable (in favor of city residents, then rural residents, then village residents). In light of these results, the study provided a set of recommendations and suggestions that could contribute to reducing the phenomenon of bullying and its negative effects
