The aim of the present study was to investigate whether authoritative teaching at the classroom-level was associated with bullying victimisation, and how this association evolved over the course of upper elementary school (i.e. in grades 4 through 6) by estimating whether the association declined with time. Data came from the first three waves of an ongoing longitudinal project examining social and moral correlates of school bullying. Survey data were analysed from 1,830 students. Multilevel analyses showed that teachers who displayed high levels of warmth, caring, and supportiveness together with high levels of structure, control, and demandingness tended to have students who reported less bullying victimisation. This association between authoritative teaching at the classroom-level and bullying victimisation, while still significant, decreased over the course of the two-year study., Funding Agencies|Robert Thornberg by the Swedish Research Council

The aim of the present study was to investigate and clarify the association between authoritative teaching at the classroom level and bullying perpetration and victimization among Swedish upper elementary school students. For this purpose, authoritative teaching was analyzed both as combined construct, and as the effects of the two dimensions that characterize authoritative teaching (i.e. structure and support). In all, 1,522 students (M-age = 10.54 SD = 0.35) from 110 classrooms completed a questionnaire in their classrooms. The findings from the multilevel regression analyses showed that students in classrooms with less authoritative teachers engaged more in bullying behaviors and were more often victimized. When authoritative teaching was divided into structure and support, only teacher support showed a significant negative association with bullying perpetration and victimization., Funding Agencies|Vetenskapsradet [D0775301]
