Abstract: This study examines the context of adolescent bullying during school transitions in Indonesia. Following a sociocultural approach on bullying (Maunder & Crafter, 2018), we argue that bullying is a situational and contextually sensitive phenomenon that is contingent on students' experiences with peers, and the responses of teachers, school, and society, including the educational system in Indonesia. Individual interviews were undertaken with teachers (N = 16) and paired interviews with students from Grade 7 and Grade 10 (N = 40). Preliminary analyses for this ongoing study reveal similarities and differences in teachers' and students' understanding of bullying based on school locations, grades, and gender. Potential implications of the research are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
