ABSTRACT

Many bystander programs to prevent violence have been developed and evaluated in college populations. An exception is the randomized controlled trial of Green Dot, found effective in reducing violence rates and violence acceptance in 26 high-schools (2010–2014). In ‘Life’s Snapshot’, 10,727 seniors were recruited from these same schools with the goal of determining the longer-term efficacy of bystander training. Students in intervention schools could have up to three years of Green Dot exposure. Seniors from intervention versus control schools had significantly lower scores (p <.01) indicating less violence acceptance or sexism for two of five measures. Seniors’ self-reports of bystander training received confirmed these findings. These cross-sectional analyses suggest that some reductions in violence acceptance associated with bystander programming may be maintained into early adulthood.

摘要

在大学人群中，已经制定并评估了许多防止暴力的旁观者计划。例外情况是Green Dot的随机对照试验，发现该试验可有效降低26所中学（2010-2014）的暴力率和暴力接受率。在“生活快照”中，从这些学校招募了10727名老年人，目的是确定旁观者培训的长期效果。干预学校的学生最多可以接触三年的绿点。干预学校和对照学校的高年级学生的分数明显较低（p<.01）表示五种措施中有两种措施较少接受暴力或性别歧视。老年人收到的有关旁观者训练的自我报告证实了这些发现。这些横断面分析表明，与旁观者编程有关的暴力接受程度的某些降低可以保持到成年初期。
