Abstract
Bullying has been mostly studied in Western countries; however, research in other parts of the world has been catching up in recent years. The phenomenon of bullying is present worldwide as demonstrated by cross-national surveys. In this paper, we review the cultural aspects of bullying mainly reflected as cross-national differences in the research evidence. We describe the emergence of bullying research with a focus on cross-national differences and similarities. Then we briefly touch on the cross-national differences in prevalence rates as well as on the similarities in characteristics and consequences. We then examine cross-national differences in specific aspects of bullying and present a theoretical framework applying a socio-ecological perspective to identify different factors that may contribute to the cross-national differences in prevalence. Lastly, we acknowledge some methodological challenges that highlight where cross-national research findings for bullying need to be considered with caution.
