The Model of Bullying in Class based on Socion Theory with Community

Abstract

As a place for creating social relationship, there is an education site of elementary school, junior high school. In that closed space, some misunderstandings and mistaken beliefs deteriorates human relationship. It’s known as bullying which is serious issue in present-day Japan. Therefore, some researchers construct multi-agent simulation models to verify the valid way to take measures to eliminate school bullying. The previous study defines the bullying as the amount of rejection links between agents. However, the model defines the rejection link only using the amount of favorability. On the other hands, according to community psychology, a branch of psychology, approaches not only personal factor but also environment for resolving problems. Therefore, we construct a network model of human relation considering the amount of stress to study the influence by environment surrounding students. As a result, group action doesn’t indicate the bullying and creates it in early stages.
