Связь буллинга и социально-эмоциональных навыков учащихся: адаптация опросника социально-экономических навыков (SECQ — Social Emotional Competence Questionnaire) на русскоязычной выборке
In recent decades, researchers’ attention to the problem of school bullying and its individual psychological predictors has remained strong. Of particular interest is the role of social-emotional skills (SES) as factors capable of reducing the risk of involvement in bullying and serving as targets for prevention programs. The aim of this study was to adapt the Social Emotional Competence Questionnaire (SECQ) for a Russian-speaking sample and to analyze the relationship between components of SES and students’ involvement in bullying as victims. The study utilized a Russian version of the SECQ, which assesses five components of SES (self-awareness, self-regulation, social awareness, relationship management, responsible decision-making), and a short version of a school bullying questionnaire (Novikova, Rean, 2021), reflecting victimization experience. The sample included 3,569 middle and high school students from a large Russian city. The Russian version of the SECQ demonstrated high psychometric properties. The data revealed a statistically significant negative correlation between the level of SES development and the risk of involvement in bullying as a victim for self-regulation, self-awareness, and relationship management; social awareness and responsible decision-making emerged as positive predictors of victimization. Lower scores on these scales were associated with a higher likelihood of victimization. The development of social-emotional skills in students can be considered a significant resource for bullying prevention, and the adapted SECQ serves as a reliable tool for their assessment in Russian contexts.
