Study design: Systematic Review
Abstract: Bullying and cyberbullying are challenging issues for health systems worldwide; assessment constitutes a necessary mechanism to establish diagnoses and guide interventions. The objective of this study was to identify the assessment tools used in prevention or intervention programs addressing bullying and cyberbullying implemented in Latin America with primary and secondary school students. A search was conducted for articles (in Spanish and English) published over the last 20 years (2004–2024) in the PubMed, Web of Science, Scielo, and Scopus databases. Twelve articles were included, highlighting that the instruments applied evaluate dimensions such as victimization, perpetration, justification of bullying, and prosocial behavior, as well as the roles in which students are involved. The discussion addresses the reliability and validity of the instruments, and it suggests the development and validation of robust and culturally sensitive tools.
