Abstract

In the past few decades, with the continuous development of pedagogy and educational psychology, the academic community has begun to study juvenile peer bullying behavior more deeply and extensively. Peer bullying, as a non-prosocial behavior, can have lasting negative effects on all group members involved in bullying contexts including the bully, the bullied and the bystander. This paper mainly focuses on discussing and analyzing several aspects of the definition, history, intervention and solution techniques of juvenile peer bullying in the academic field. Through case analysis and literature review, this article systematically introduces the general picture of peer bullying to readers. The findings suggest that despite the extensive studies on intervention and solutions for peer bullying behaviour, there is still a research gap in the early identification of peer bullying among teenagers.
