Question

In the 21st century, bullying has become an increasingly common phenomenon with 5%
to 15% of people being the victim of bullying reported worldwide, among which some
cases even lead to deaths [2]. Moreover, there has been an increase in cases of deaths
by suicide and use of aggression among adolescents due to bullying in schools [3]. The
involvement of adolescents in bullying is highly apparent and affects almost half of them
all over the world [4].
Bullying is characterized as a set of aggressive behaviours [5], systematic abuse of
power and a form of peer abuse [6], involving three primary elements, namely, repetition,
harm and power imbalance [7]. Therefore, an individual is considered a victim of bullying
when and if they have been continuously and repetitively exposed to harmful or negative
behaviour, enacted by another individual or multiple other individuals, without having the
power to defend themselves [8]. The power imbalance that exists between the individuals
will likely put the weaker individual in harm’s way [8].

Nearly half of young people are involved in bullying, which is defined as aggressive behavior marked by repetition, harm, and a power imbalance. Victims are those who face continuous negative actions from others without the ability to defend themselves, placing them at greater risk due to this power differential.
