Nearly half (43.1 percent) of the respondents believed they were as able (27.9 percent) or more able (16.9 percent) than other students to bully others if they so desired. A significant percentage (64.8 percent) of the group reported they had felt like hurting or upsetting another student "sometimes" (54.6 percent) or "often" (6.8 percent). Just over 40 percent of the students had, as part of a group, bullied another student during 2002, with the highest percentage doing so once or twice (19.2 percent). A somewhat lower percentage of respondents reported bullying other students as individuals rather than as part of a group. The three reasons most often given for bullying were to show toughness (show off) (63.0 percent), for fun (54.6 percent), and to get even (retaliation) (52.4 percent). Regarding measures for countering bullying, 86.8 percent of respondents said educators should try to stop students from bullying one another; and 83.8 percent suggested that students and educators should cooperate in stopping bullying. Students completed 1,926 questionnaires in the first term of 2003; however, 53 of the questionnaires were not correctly completed. The students were from nine primary, eight secondary, and two special schools in District four of the Province. 7 tables and a 13-item bibliography
