Habilidad lectora e inteligencia emocional en una niña víctima de bullying

Abstract

Bullying in schools is a latent problem, often difficult to identify, and as such it is considered a very delicate issue due to the seriousness of its consequences since historical records indicate that it can lead to the suicide of the victims. However, the existing literature denotes controversy in identifying the repercussions of bullying, including on academic performance, reading ability and emotional intelligence of children. In an educational institution in the Machala canton, it was identified that a seven-year-old girl is a victim of bullying. Furthermore, as a result of this problem, the teacher claims that her academic performance has decreased and her behavior in the classroom has changed, as has her mother. who also stated that he had identified these changes in his home, accompanied by voluntary isolation. Based on this problem, the objective is to analyze the reading ability and emotional intelligence of a girl who is a victim of bullying through the application of Prolec-R and Drawing of the human figure in children, for the development of an intervention plan. This research is descriptive, qualitative, non experimental and has a humanistic approach. It uses direct observation and interview. The results confirmed the existence of bullying, but in addition, the girl evaluated is also a passive spectator. Finally, an individual intervention plan could be designed, so that the parents work with the girl, and a collective one, so that the teacher works with the entire classroom
