Abstract

The aim of the present research was to study the effectiveness of social competence training based on Flener model on social adjustment of students who are bullying victims according to the role of social goal orientation. Research design was a quasi-experimental method along with pre-test/post-test and control group. The population consisted of girl victims who were studying at 7th and 8th grade in first stage of secondary school. Sample consisted of 96 victim students that were randomly assigned to experimental (n=48) and control (n=48) groups according to their type of social goal orientation. California Bullying Victimization Scale, Social Achievement Goal Orientation and social adjustment scales were used. Social competence training was conducted in 12 sessions during six weeks for experimental group and control group received no training. The results of the two-way univariate the analysis of covariance showed that the training is effective on increasing the social adjustment of the victims. This increase was in social mastery and in social performance-approach groups, but not in social performance- avoidance group. Overall, the results indicate that social competence training can be used to promote the social adjustment of bullying victims.
