Project
Steps To Respect
Project Description
The Social Development Research Group is partnering with Committee for Children to conduct a large-scale school-randomized evaluation of Steps To Respect: A School Bullying Prevention Program. The evaluation calls for 32 schools in four California counties to be randomly assigned to either the intervention condition, receiving the Steps to Respect program, or the control condition. Data from students, teachers, and other school personnel will be collected at pretest (at the beginning of the school year) and posttest (at the end of the school year) to determine whether schools receiving the intervention experience lower levels of bullying behavior and victimization than do control schools.
