The increase in the incidence of bullying justifies the growing need for reliable instruments for its assessment. This study presents a comparative analysis of 9 questionnaires for the detection of school bullying aimed at pupils in the last stage of primary education and adolescents. Three different analyses were carried out to detect both the strengths and weaknesses of the questionnaires that made up the sample, as well as the typologies and manifestations of bullying most frequently evaluated. The results show that physical and verbal harassment are the most frequently evaluated, and that the most evaluated manifestations are related to physical or verbal aggression, public humiliation, invasion of intimacy, and coercion. Likewise, the analysis of strengths and weaknesses reveals the need to consider the different agents pertaining to the context of harassment assessed. This study offers a global perspective to counselors and educational psychologists, useful for the detection of bullying.

Palabras clave : Bullying; Questionnaire; Assessment; Types of harassment; Harassment manifestations.
