| Izvleček: | There is a need to develop and validate an instrument to assess school bullying in the Mexican population
in order to evaluate the issue and intervene accordingly. This study validates a bullying assessment
instrument named Bull-M in children from 5th to 12th grade. The Bull-M was administered to a sample
size of 2,030 students from 5th to 12th grade in several schools in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico. A two-factor
structure of the Bull-M was analyzed with confirmatory factor analyses across the whole sample and
gender and educational levels. The confirmatory factor analyses indicate good model fits, strong factor
loadings and adequate Cronbach’s alpha values to assess internal reliability of the factors and scale. The
Bull-M can be used to assess bullying in students from 5th to 12th grade in northern Mexico. |
