The Impact of Bullying on Students' Academic Achievement: A Literature Review

Abstract

Bullying in educational settings is a phenomenon that is still prevalent and can have a serious impact on the psychological and academic development of students. The method used is a literature study by reviewing a number of relevant scientific articles, journals, and research reports. The results of the study show that students who are victims of bullying tend to experience a decline in learning motivation, concentration, and self-confidence, which ultimately has a negative impact on their academic achievement. In addition, bullying can also trigger psychological problems such as anxiety and depression, which worsen students' learning conditions. Therefore, schools, teachers, and parents need to play an active role in creating a safe and supportive learning environment to effectively prevent and deal with bullying. This study is expected to serve as a basis for the development of policies and programs to prevent bullying in schools.
