Abstract

ABSTRACT Background: Verbal bullying and body shaming are common phenomena among high school students. Verbal bullying can affect students’ confidence. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between verbal bullying, body shaming behavior, and student self-confidence. Methods: The study used a cross-sectional design, 267 students in one of the senior high schools in Sidoarjo, Indonesia were selected by cluster sampling. Bullying behaviour was measured by the Adolescent Peer Relations Instrument (APRI) and the Objectivity Body Consciousness Scale (OBC). Those two variables were tested by the Spearmen Rho analysis test. Results: The results showed that most of the verbal bullying and body shaming behaviour was in the moderate category (93.3%), while most of the high school students had low self-confidence (65.2%). The Spearmen Rho test indicated that the value of r = -0,230, ρ=0,001 (ρ<α=0,05), means that there is a low correlation between verbal bullying, body shaming behaviour, and self-confidence. Conclusions The implication of this study shows that the higher verbal bullying and body shaming, the lower the high school students’ self-confidence. There are many factors that can influence students to increase their self-confidence and also prevent verbal bullying and body-shaming actions. One of them is individual counseling, in which students take counseling together with the teacher and their parents. Keywords: Bullying, Body Shaming, Self-Confidence
