Peer-Led Social Skills Training
A volunteer group of students attended six two-hour sessions with a psychologist and then taught their peers the same curriculum. Weekly progress reports were submitted to the psychologist to ensure fidelity. Outcomes on emotional intelligence and cyberbullying were assessed at baseline and three months post-intervention.
Control No Training
Participants in the control group received no intervention during the study period. Outcomes were assessed at baseline and three months post-intervention to provide a comparison for the experimental groups.
