摘要：Objective:To determine the prevalence of bullying among university students in Jordan.The study also aims to identify potential predictors of bullying within the context of university students in Jordan.
Methods:A cross-sectional study using a convenience sampling method was conducted with 350 university students from 3 institutions(2 public and 1 private),who participated in this study.Data were collected through a self-reported questionnaire.Data analysis employed descriptive statistics,and multivariate linear regression was executed through the SPSS program(version 26)(IBM
Corporation,Armonk,New York,United States)at 5％level of significance.Results:The findings revealed that 30％of the surveyed students reported never experiencing bullying,41.1％indicated rare exposure,20％reported occasional bullying,4.3％noted frequent exposure,and 4.6％reported constant exposure.Statistical analysis identified university and academic year as significant predictors of bullying.The university exhibited significance(B=-0.403,P＜0.05),while the academic year was also a significant predictor(B=0.213,P＜0.05).
Conclusions:Given the prevalence and predictors identified,this study recommends the implementation of policies in universities to safeguard students from bullying.These policies should specifically target the most affected individuals.
