Online resources: The Olweus Bullying Prevention Program was developed in Norway. The purpose of our project was to determine whether the Olweus Bullying Prevention Program worked in inner city schools in the United States. To evaluate the Olweus Bullying Prevention Program, levels of bullying were examined before, during, and after the program. Each school was scored on how well it adhered to the original program, a concept known as fidelity of implementation. Student surveys, violence-related serious incident reports, and observations of students in lunches and recess were collected in 36 schools over 9 years.
