Bullying Victimisation Among Deaf Adolescents: A School-Based Self-Report Survey in Ghana
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF DISABILITY DEVELOPMENT AND EDUCATION(2022)
摘要
Regional and national level data on bullying victimisation and its associated factors among deaf adolescents are still lacking, particularly, in Africa. We conducted a cross-sectional self-report anonymous survey involving a nationally representative random sample of 450 school-going deaf adolescents in Ghana. Bivariate and multivariate analyses of the data showed the overall 12-month prevalence estimate of bullying victimisation to be 55 center dot 1% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 50% - 60%), but the estimates were comparable between females (52 center dot 0%) and males (57 center dot 0%). Whereas deaf adolescents with schoolwork problems were likely to report bullying victimisation, most of the key factors associated with bullying victimisation were adverse social events - break-up, conflict with friends, and parental divorce. These findings underscore the need for further studies, and school-based intervention and prevention efforts.
