Abstract: Summary: At the moment, the problem of bullying among teenagers is increasing. In this regard, this study examines the psycho-emotional state of adolescents depending on the manifestation of bullying in the school and identifies the main psycho-emotional characteristics of schoolchildren who are studying in comfort conditions and with bullying. Methodology: The target audience of the study was 54 schoolchildren aged 14-15 years of two 9th grades of Secondary School No. 155 in Novosibirsk. The respondents were surveyed using four questionnaires: sociometric measurement questionnaire (sociometry) by D. Moreno; “Bullying structure” test (by E.G. Norkin); the diagnostic test of school anxiety (by E. Phillips); and aggressiveness questionnaire (by L.G. Pochebut). In the course of the study, grade 9A was designated as a control, grade 9B was designated as an experimental class. The Results of the Study and Conclusions: Sociometric analysis revealed the presence of neglected and outcast school children in both classes, as well as rejected ones in the experimental class. A positive bullying structure was observed in the control class, since the number of defenders of the victim prevailed over the number of initiators and their assistants. In the experimental one, there were more initiators of bullying and their assistants. Increased levels of anxiety and aggressiveness were also detected in the experimental class. The data obtained are the basis for work on reducing bullying, reducing the level of aggression and increasing emotional comfort in the experimental class.
