Peer Relationship Program: Effects on Bullying, Peer Relations, Self-Efficacy, and Critical Thinking

The Peer Functional Relationship Enhancement Program is a 9-week psychoeducational intervention for early adolescents. It consists of weekly group sessions that include cooperative activities, role-play, and creative exercises designed to strengthen peer relationships, improve attitudes toward bullying, enhance self-efficacy, and develop critical thinking skills. This program is structured and standardized to ensure consistent delivery across participants and is distinct from other behavioral or social skills programs targeting similar age groups.
