Résumé
El objetivo del presente artículo fue examinar características contextuales de la realidad guatemalteca y brasilera en lo concerniente al bullying o acoso escolar entre pares. Fueron consultados diversos artículos, textos e informes sobre este fenómeno a partir de una revisión bibliográfica, abarcando temas como definición del concepto, consecuencias, participantes y especial énfasis en las similitudes y diferencias en la prevalecía encontrada en ambos países, según los estudios analizados. Nuevos estudios que verifiquen la relación entre bullying y otras variables más allá del contexto escolar son sugeridos.Authors who publish with this journal agree to the following terms:
