Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The review of research on the effectiveness of anti-bullying programs found that the average reduction in bullying was 20 to 23%. Therefore, choice D, which states that "bullying programs on average reduce bullying by 20 to 23%" is the correct answer. The other options are incorrect because the review found that peer-based programs were not necessarily more effective than other forms of programs and that long-term programs were generally more effective than short-term ones.
