“…A significant number of students witness bullying at school, with estimates ranging from 70-88% (Rivers, Poteat, Noret, & Ashurst, 2009). Findings indicate that of the 55% of students in a recent study classified as bystanders (i.e., students who witness bullying, do not engage in bullying, and are not victims), 46% do nothing to intervene (Datta, Cornell, & Huang, 2016). This finding is important because when students intervene and/or console the victim, acting as "defenders" (Salmivalli, Lagerspetz, Björkqvist, Ősterman, & Kaukiainen, 1996, p.15), bullying behavior decreases (Padgett & Notar, 2013;Salmivalli, 2014).…”
