Abstract
In this study we seek to investigate how students in the 3rd and 5th grade of primary School interpret a statistical infographic about bullying in schools, considering the elements of Statistical Literacy mobilized by them. A diagnosis was developed involving questions of interpretation of an infographic about bullying, from a textbook, in 3rd and 5th grade classes. The results showed that the majority of students were able to interpret the graphics and textual information, with 5th grade students performing better. However, students were unaware of what a data source was and its importance, which was understood after the training process, allowing students to make judgments regarding its reliability. Furthermore, they made effective decisions regarding bullying in schools. We concluded that students were able to interpret the infographic and make effective decisions, mobilizing cognitive and dispositional elements of Statistical Literacy.
