When the bullies decide the path : A qualitative study on stdy on study and career councelor's experiences concering pupils subjected to bullying (English)
Abstract [sv]

Mobbning i skolan är ett utbrett problem där det uppges att 54% av alla elever i Sverige har blivit utsatta. Att bli utsatt för mobbning kan innebära flera allvarliga konsekvenser för elevernas skolgång, mående och framtid. Studie- och yrkesvägledare har en central roll med att hjälpa elever med avgörande studie- och yrkesval. Denna studie syftar därmed till att öka kunskapen om hur studie- och yrkesvägledare i grundskolan upplever att elevers erfarenheter av att bli utsatta för mobbning påverkar deras framtida karriärval. Studien grundar sig på en kvalitativ metod där åtta semistrukturerade intervjuer har genomförts med verksamma studie- och yrkesvägledare på olika grundskolor i Sverige. Resultatet visar på att studie- och yrkesvägledare upplever att elever utsatta för mobbning har en sämre självbild, tilltro till sina förmågor, förmåga att hitta alternativ, motivation och skolprestationer. Resultatet har analyserats med hjälp av en tematisk analys samt teorierna Hope Theory och Self-efficacy för att förstå hur elevers hopp och självtillit påverkas av mobbning. Den huvudsakliga slutsatsen av studien är att studie- och yrkesvägledare upplever att elever utsatta för mobbning får en negativ påverkan på sina framtida karriärval.

Abstract [en]

School bullying is a widespread problem with reports indicating that 54% of all pupils in Sweden have once been subjected to it. Being subjected to bullying can lead to several serious consequences för pupils' schooling, well-being and future. Study and career counselors play a central role in helping pupils with crucial educational and career choices. This study therefore aims to increase knowledge of how study and career counselors in compulsory school perceive that pupils' experiences of being subjected to bullying affect their future career choices. The study is based on a qualitative method, in which eight semi-structured interviews were conducted with practicing study and career counselors at various compulsory schools in Sweden. The results indicate that study and career counselors perceive that pupils subjected to bullying have lower self-esteem, confidence in their abilities, ability to identify alternatives, motivation and school performance. The results have been analyzed using thematic analysis as well as the theories of hope theory and self-efficacy to understand how pupils' hope and self-confidence are affected by bullying. The main conclusion of the study is that study and career counselors perceive that pupils subjected to bullying experience a negative impact on their future career choices.
