It is essential to discuss this question, because its occurrence causes emotional injuries which can compromise the learning process of the involved subjects. Thus, this research aims to identify the profile of bullying practiced in school environment. It was a bibliometric study carried out in national and international journals classified in QUALIS, a list emitted by CAPES - Coordination of Higher Education Personnel Improvement, in Brazil in the area of Administration, Accountancy and Tourism with B5 minimal classification and with 0.95 impact factor for international journals. We found 36 papers on the theme published along the late 13 years. The results suggest a concentration of studies on Basic School at the expense of higher education. This research provides an overview of the hardest hit education areas, the perpetrator and victim profile, the bullying combating programs, as well as the types of bullying and its features. Key-words: Bullying; Higher education; Learning. 120 International Research Journal of Education and Innovation (IRJEI) Vol 1 No3 March 2015 Introduction Bullying can be defined as intentional and repetitive whole of aggressive attitudes, without apparent reason (Fante, 2005). It is a widespread problem, regardless of race, religion or social class, present in schools and in the society (Leo, 2010). As it is a form of violence, the impact of bullying is related to its frequent media coverage, which has caused the population is familiar with the problem (Geronasso & Ens, 2012). Given the relevance of the theme, we realize the real need for conducting researches and further studies on it. Various factors, mainly related to intolerance to individual differences, favor the occurrence of bullying in school, such as: characteristics of the individual, the family and the school (Batsche & Knoff, 1994; Baldry, 2003). The intolerance regarding the differences between individuals can trigger actions that characterize bullying (Fante, 2005). These acts may occur directly or indirectly, through virtual, verbal, sexual, psychological and physical aggression (Silva, 2006). Due to the growth of bullying practices, educational institutions around the world have formulated actions and measures to try to minimize the consequences of this practice (Rigby, 2007). Bullying can be found in different environments, including in educational institutions. When stating aggression in school routine, policies aimed at curbing them should become the focus of attention of the authorities (Carvalho & Silva, 2011; Czech, 2012; Russell, 2011), because the occurrence of mental and/or behavioral disorders can cause irreversible damage. The teacher is a great ally in preventing and combating the problem, because when detecting those responsible, he may notice the lack of discipline and learning problems, common characteristics presented by both those who suffer, for those who practice bullying (Trevisol & Dresch , 2012). Thus, the aim of this study is to identify the profile of bullying practiced in school environment. From a bibliometric study, we collected 36 papers on this theme, published from 200 to 2013 in national and international journals of QUALI-CAPES for the areas of Administration, Accountancy and Tourism, with B5 minimal classification and with 0.95 impact factor for international journals. Bullying is present in every part of the world and it can be found in all the schools, all social classes and it causes negative attitudes in all the involved subjects (Neto, 2005). Scientific studies have concentrated both in factors which cause bullying and in the characteristics of the involved agents. The relevance of discussing this topic is directly related to the lives of children and adolescents, since the violence generated by bullying threatens the educational process as they can cause untold damage to learning and the life of the individual. From the results of this study, researchers, public authorities, educational institutions and society can plan policies to prevent and combat the problem. After this introduction, we present the research theoretical frame, detailing the bullying profile in school environment. The third section describes the used methodology. The fourth registers the results and afterwards the conclusions. Bullying: concept, types and consequences The English term “bullying” represents a set of intentional and repetitive aggressive attitudes (Calhau, 2010; Silva, 2009). It is an old practice, but the scientific research on it began in the 1970s in Sweden due to the increase in suicide among children and adolescents and the increased level of violence among students (Fante & Stone 2008). As a consequence of these events, educational jurisdictions around the world have implemented measures to try and reduce bullying (Rigby, 2007). According to Lopes Neto (2005), bullying is prevalent in all 121 International Research Journal of Education and Innovation (IRJEI) Vol 1 No3 March 2015 parts of the world, it is found in all schools, present in all social classes, showing negative results for all involved. The pranks, the nicknames and the insults may occur spontaneously and may be not considered as a problem (Silva, 2010). However, this author considers that whether the pranks have bad intentions they become violence acts and overpass the tolerance levels and configure bullying. To Olweus (1995), the following criteria can be applied to characterize bullying occurrence: the victim has to be targeted in a repetitive manner over a given time, corresponding at least twice during the school year; there is no reason for the aggressions; There is eminent power imbalance between the bully and the victim. According to Calahu( 2010), bullying receives different names such as: moral harassment, mobbing (Norway and Denmark), mobbing (Sweden and Finland), harassments (USA), acaso (Spain) among several denominations. Nevertheless, Silva (2010) defines harassment as a kind of bullying. Fante and Pedra (2008) consider harassment or mobbing as violence forms resulted from bullying in school time. Tigby (2007) points out that harassment and intimidation attitudes derive from bullying and are common with increasing age Almeida, Silva e Cavalcante (2008) show that the terms mobbing, harassment and bullying define the violence which occurs among adults in their work environment. These authors report that harassment can be vertical, when it occurs between people of different hierarchical levels or horizontal that occurs between individuals of the same level in the work environment. The term bullying refers to children and adolescents in school environment (Almeida, Silva & Cavalcante, 2008). The bullying can occur directly, for example, physical and sexual, or indirect bullying such as verbal bullying (Smith, 2010). According to her, the victim usually receives various types of maltreatment, which can be expressed in many different ways, as shown in Table 1. The most common bullying is the verbal one (Silva, 2010). In later years the advent of information technology increased the cyberbullying, which can be understood as disseminating slanders through by communication appliances and equipment. Table1- Bullying types Bullying types Characteristics Physical and material Psychological and moral Sexual Verbal Hitting, kicking, beating, pushing, hurting, pinching, steal, steal, destroy the belongings of the victim, throwing objects against the victim. Annoying, humiliating and ridiculing, excluding, isolating, ignoring, dismissing or making light, discriminating, terrorizing and threatening, blackmailing and mimicking, mastering, slandering, etc. Abusing, violating, harassing, insinuating Insulting, offending, speaking ill; making mockery, putting pejorative nicknames, making offensive jokes, "messing". Slander, backbiting, spread by the use of devices and communication equipment. Virtual Despite the kind of aggression, bullying bring emotional and behavior consequences over time (Pereira, Silva & Nunes, 2009). Children and teenagers victims of bullying nay have physical and emotional troubles and they can become anxious, depressed, stressed, low selfsteemed adults, who can even commit suicide (Oliveira & Antonio, 2006). Being bullied for an extended period of time may cause suicide tendencies ending self-life (Silva, 2010). Some others reproduce victimization against other people or integrate gangs, in 122 International Research Journal of Education and Innovation (IRJEI) Vol 1 No3 March 2015 order to get over the suffered aggressions. Others, after suffering for years, reach the limit, no more enduring the humiliations that are submitted and go armed at school, carrying great tragedies (Fante& Stone, 2008).. Bullying victims are often attacked by more than one type of attackers and due to this it increases the possibility suffer a severe traumatic and exclusion (Smith, 2010). This author classifies the victims according to the following characteristics: (1) typical: they are often reserved and shy and they do not react to the aggressive behavior they suffer; (2) provocative: they attract the attention of attackers for themselves, for example, children who suffer from hyperactivity. As they cannot concentrate and be quiet, they call the bully attention; (3) aggressive: they reproduce suffered maltreatment to another victim more vulnerable, as a compensation for the suffering experienced. The increasing attacks practiced by bullies who are not punished may extend outside of schools, reaching families and society (Neto, 2005). So the violence generated by bullying is a threat to the educational process and to public health, with consequences for short and longterm life of the individual. Bullying in school environment Bullying is present in a great number of schools both public and private, involving an increase number of students (Fante, 2010). It may compromise learning process (Lemos, 2007). However, bullying practices in school environment are traditionally admitted as being natural and they are ignored or not valued by both teachers and staff and by parents (Lopes, 2005). The aggressive behavior of children in the school environment can result from aggressive behaviors experienced by parents or other environments where coexist continuously (Ferreira & Tavares, 2009; Ramos, 2009). When the family and school unaware of the fact, do not contribute to the end of suffering, and when they are aware of the situation they ignore it considering bullying as a common behavior (Lemos, 2007). According to Gomes and Resende (2011), schools that fail to observe these conflicts and treat them in a constructive and humanizing way can bring positive result, improve performance, reasoning and resolution of problem situations. Bullying occurrence is more frequent among younger students (Olweus, 1993; Pereira, 1997; Silva & Morgado, 2011). In the school, the boys victimize more than girls and they use mainly physical and verbal aggression. The aggressive girls use more indirect aggression, by making gossip, humiliating, excluding the victim from the group and spreading rumors (Fante, 2010; Moura Cruz & Quevedo, 2011; Silva &Morgado, 2011).Classroom time and recreation are places of higher incidence of such violence (Gomes &Resende, 2011; Silva &Morgado, 2011). Bullying is a serious problem and can damage the victim by causing learning difficulties, loss of interest in studies, absenteeism, dropout, homicide and suicide (Fante& Stone, 2008). Moreover, the offender also tends to have injured its own educational process and the witnesses are considered as uninterested in solving the problem, besides being compromised educationally. Bullies in school have increased possibility to show violent or antisocial behaviors when they get older, besides adopting criminal attitudes, becoming delinquents in several forms (Gomes, 2010). Silva &Morgado (2011) carried out a bibliographic survey and they stated the prevalence of the scientific literature on bullying in elementary and secondary education, to the detriment of researches in higher education. Through interviews with scholars, Federal 123 International Research Journal of Education and Innovation (IRJEI) Vol 1 No3 March 2015 University of Mato Grosso, Brazil, the authors identified the presence of bullying at the university, conducted by university hazing, indirect aggressive actions such as exclusion, threats, humiliation, among others, and aggression more directly, such as physical aggression. Caran, Sêcco, Barbosa and Robazzi(2010) assert that schools, universities and institutes, even being centers of excellence in teaching and research, tend to be environments where there are perverse situations between people and groups, moral harassment or bullying may occur. These authors found that 40.7% of the 54 teachers in the sample admitted having been victims of bullying at work; 59.3% have witnessed bullying situations between colleagues and 70.4% said it is a common problem in college. Silva and Mascarenhas (2010) sought to diagnose the occurrence and management of bullying and cyberbullying phenomena. They applied a Questionnaire on Bullying and maltreatment among Equals (Qimei) in a sample of 222 students from different courses at the Federal University of Maranhão, Brazil. According to the results of this study, 23.4% of students reported not having any friends at the university and 3.5% reported being alone, isolated in intervals, which leads to indirect bullying where the victim is ignored group. How to mistreatment, 3.2% of the students responded that it is often by e-mail, cell phone, internet, featuring cyberbullying. In addition, 12.6% of respondents would like these intimidating situations do not happen and 29.1% said the attackers are in the same class of the victims. Soler, Menegesso, Santos & Felice (2009) used a semi-structured to identify the specific practice of bullying issues to 130 students of Nursing Course in a college in São Paulo. The results suggest the predominance of this phenomenon in feminine gender (88.4%); most part of the students (435) were 17-20 years old. The main violence types were verbal (10%) and physical (7,6%). Threats to classmates were reported by 26.9% and threats from professors were pointed out by 23.8% of the respondents. Miranda et al. (2012) investigated the cases of violence among students of the Federal University of Rondônia, Brazil. They applied a validated questionnaire to a sample of 456 students of ten courses in the university. They found the predominance of feminine gender (57.3%). Victims pointed out the following expressions: gossip (46.4%), making the person feel fear (18.8%) and putting nicknames or names that the student does not like (10.1%). Besides 6.1% of students said that bullying occurs in classrooms and 5.1% in the hallways or stairs. Students reported having gone through embarrassing or humiliating situations by teachers representing 32% of the sample; 10.1% of these cases occurred in the classroom, in front of other students and 9.9% in presenting works. Research Design and Data Collection This is a bibliometric, explorative and qualitative study carried out by documental research. We analyzed national and international journals. For the national ones we considered the journal list in QUALIS-CAPES for Administration, Accountancy and Tourism area (CAPES, 2013), with B5 minimal qualification. To the international journals we selected those that besides being in QUALIS-CAPES list had also impact factor minimum as 0.95. Concerning to the selection of papers, we used the following keywords for searching them in national and international journals: school bullying, harassment, bullying at school, moral harassment. The analyzed period was 200-2013. So, from July to August 2013,we collected 36 papers i (9 national and 276 international).These papers were analyzed by means of a structured database in a spreadsheet prepared script. The following items on each sample item were tabulated: author of the article, origin of each author, journal of publication, year of 124 International Research Journal of Education and Innovation (IRJEI) Vol 1 No3 March 2015 article characteristics (number of references, number of pages), results, author opinion, approach, objective, limitations of the study, research hypotheses, sample (educational level, number of students, local), among others. Results Table 2 lists 26 journals (20 national and 6 international ones) that compound the sample in this search. We found 36 papers on the theme, 9 national and 27 international ones. We verified the predominance of quantitative researches (72.2%) and researches published in A concept journals in QUALIS-CAPES (24 of 36 papers published, i.e., 66.7%). The journals with most publishing on bullying in the analyzed period were: Computers in Human Behavior (6 items), Psychologia&Sociedade (2 papers), Studies in Educational Evaluation, Economics of Education Review and Revista de Criminologia e Ciências Penitenciárias (2 papers in each). In the 22 other remaining journals, only one paper on the topic published in each were found. Table 2 -Journal classification Journals Nr. of papers Title 1.

Regarding annual production, we perceive an increased number of researches on the theme since 2010 (Figure 1) We did not find any papers published between 2002 and 2003. We emphasize that we found national papers on bullying only since 2008. On the other hand, we found international researches on bullying since, 2000, regardless being few ones.

We perceive the predominance of primary and secondary education at the expense of higher education (only one international study with students from Australia and Japan). These results corroborate Silva and Morgado’s statement (2011) that there is a widespread scientific production on bullying in primary and secondary school as well a shortage of production in higher education Table 3 - Countries of the study Sample educational level Countries Basic Australia / Japan Brazil China Singapore Colombia Spain U.S. Britain England Latin America American Norway New Zealand UK Russia Thailand Turkey Amount High School Basic and High School College Amount 1 1 5 1 1 1 2 2 1 3 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 25 School 3 1 1 1 1 2 1 2 1 3 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 15 1 7 2 1 Regarding definitions, 25 papers (69%) show the bullying concept (Table 4). To these authors, bullying with intention to repetitively hurt an individual or a group for a long period damage physically and emotionally the victims in long term. Only one of the 26 articles studies harassment as a form of bullying used in business environment. The 25 remaining ones do not distinguish bullying and harassment, because the terms are used as synonymous.

The aim of 19% of the researches was to investigate cyberbullying and 19% of the studies aimed to investigate antibullying programs efficacy. The remaining studies aimed to validate bullying tests used by other authors and/or public agencies. Regarding their conclusions, rather than 75% of the researches refers to the need of implementing programs to combat bullying and 17% cyberbullying ones, due to constant growth of this phenomena in school environment over time (Table 6). Moreover, the author of these studies emphasize that the technological progress can lead to an increase in virtual bullying. So, parents, students and teachers should be aware of the problem to collaborate with prevention initiatives to these practices.

Discussion and conclusion This study aimed to identify the bullying profile in school context. The results of the bibliometric search suggest that Brazil is the country with the highest rate of published papers on bullying, followed by the United States, Britain and Spain. Concerning to educational levels, it was realized that the research has given greater focus on primary education (65% of quantitative papers analyzed) at the expense of secondary and higher education (31% and 4% of quantitative papers, respectively). However, considering that bullying can occur in all age groups, we emphasize the need for more research on the incidence of this phenomenon in adulthood. The authors also highlight the need to combat the occurrence of bullying in the early stage, but those involved can continue practicing bullying throughout their lives. Whereas the scientific literature suggests that the damage caused by bullying can be irreversible, we consider as relevant the conclusions of most of the authors of our sample concerning to the importance of preventive and inhibitory activities of bullying. Moreover, 127 International Research Journal of Education and Innovation (IRJEI) Vol 1 No3 March 2015 they stress the need to involve set of parents, teachers, educational institutions, law enforcement, in short, all members of society. In Administration, Accounting and Tourism QUALIS/CAPES list we found few articles dealing with the subject of the research (only 36). Neither were found no articles on this theme with a focus in accounting (journals that specifically had the term 'accounting' in the title). Since the societal concern with bullying has increased and the number of scientific research on this subject has grown since the year 2000, we see the need for the involvement of the various areas of knowledge, including accounting, in research on the theme. Further studies can be carried out focusing higher education and business context in order to understand how bullying occurs in those environments and how the bullying victims in higher education deal to the different aggression forms in work environment. Moreover, it would be relevant to analyze the incidence of bullying among teachers and between teachers and students College in order to have a broad map of bullying, which would contribute to the awareness of the problem as to the search for solutions applicable to both institutions of higher education.
