Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北大學 === 犯罪學研究所 === 96 === By using an administered questionnaire, the study comprised a purposive sample of 552 senior high school and vocational high school students from grades 2 and 3 in Hsin-Chu County. The study had two aims:(1)to understand campus violence victimization of senior high school and vocational high school students; and (2)to analyze important factors to predict campus victimization.
The study found that (1) being physically pushed around and making indecent gestures are the most popular forms of campus violence among students; (2) campus violence is most likely to happen in classrooms when schoolmates are present at the scene; (3) most campus violence victims don’t seek help. Victims would tell friends if help is needed; (4) male, tall and strong, vocational school students, mothers working in professional jobs, poor teacher-student students relationships, poor academic achievement and wearing designer’ products to school are the most significant predictors of victimization on campus.
Three suggestions are made to prevent the victimization of high school students. First, schools might consider ruling out the family-related factors since they are least important to victimization on campus violence. Second, teachers should provide more assistance to potential victims via encouraging better interpersonal relationships, especially with teachers and classmates. Finally, vocational high schools need to make more efforts to construct a safer learning environment for their students.
