ADOLESCENTS’ PERCEPTION OF VIOLENCE, WELL-BEING, SATISFACTION AT SCHOOL, AND TEACHERS SUPPORT

Summary/Abstract: Adolescents involved in school violence, as bullies, victims or bystanders, experience problems in multiple areas. They reported lower life satisfaction and psychological well-being and others unfavourable consequences. This study aims to analyse relationships between perception of violence, well-being, satisfaction at school, and teachers support, using a correlational approach. The findings show that the reported well-being (mental and social), school satisfaction, student grades and teachers’ support are directly associated. Aggression, victimization, indirect exposure to violence and violence in the community are negatively associated with teachers’ support. Satisfaction at school can be explained by gender, student-teacher relationships, student form-teacher relationship and violence in community. Adolescents’ social well-being is poor explained by investigated variables. Mental well-being, expressed by negative indicators, may be explained by father education level, age, student-teacher relationships, student form-teacher relationship and violence in community.
