• Resumen

  • Several studies point to Physical Education as a suitable subject for the prevention of bullying. Purpose: The present study aims to identify and analyse the perpetration and victimisation which occur at a general level and in Physical Education in Secondary Education. Method: The study was conducted with 1,352 students from public schools. Results: The analysis of the results shows differences in victimisation; with direct and verbal violence in the general context and insults and exclusion in Physical Education; and perpetration; with direct and verbal violence in the general context and insults and hitting in Physical Education. There is a lower occurrence of bullying among older students and differences in the type of bullying according to gender, among girls and boys. Conclusion: Victimisation and perpetration behaviours are reproduced in a similar way in the general educational context and in the specific context of Physical Education.
