Evidence¶

Medeiros W 2016¶

Medeiros W, Torro-Alves N, Malloy-Diniz LF and Minervino CM (2016) Executive Functions in Children Who Experience Bullying Situations. Front. Psychol. 7:1197. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2016.01197

q2 · i3 · associational · r1

Kruskal–Wallis testing of the Victoria Stroop Color-Word Test across the four groups found differences only for the third card (color-word; χ2 = 10,039, p = 0.018); "the bully group had a shorter execution time compared to the victim" and bully-victim groups, with r = −0.50 each. Bullies did not differ significantly from controls.

"Mann–Whitney tests showed that the bully group had a shorter execution time compared to the victim ( U= 35, z=− 2.736, p= 0.006, r=− 0.50) and bully-victim groups (U= 31, z=− 2.754, p= 0.006, r=− 0.50)"
