LGBT+ ADOLESCENTS’ PERCEPTIONS OF BULLYING IN MORE EGALITARIAN SOCIAL CONTEXTS

ABSTRACT

The objective of this study is to describe the incidence of bullying LGBTphobic and to analyze the factors that can influence the school climate among LGBT+ adolescents. A total of 164 LGBT+ adolescents between the ages of 12 and 18 completed a survey examining their perceptions of LGBTphobic bullying. The analysis showed that there are protective factors that favor the decrease in the incidence of LGBTphobic bullying. Despite this, part of the sample has reported school violence, which indicates the need to analyze these actions. It is considered urgent that educational centers ensure the safety of students. This context can be one of the best intervention channels to cause positive social change towards equality.
