Abstract
ABSTRACT School bullying continues to be a major concern in Trinidad and Tobago. Despite its prevalence and governmental efforts to reduce bullying, relatively few studies have examined the relationship between exposure to violence at home and school bullying in this nation. This study intends to examine the relationship between exposure to violence at home, anger, school culture toward bullying, and school bullying within the context of General Strain Theory. Using data collected from 1,248 students in ten primary schools in Trinidad, this study found that exposure to violence at home had significant influences on bullying in school. Further, anger significantly mediated the relationship between exposure to violence at home and school bullying while the moderating effects of anger and school culture favorable toward bullying were statistically significant.
