One hundred forty-two teachers were chosen for this research out of 3,397 teachers in Ni?de by rational sampling. Data was gathered through public surveys. The frequency distribution used for analysis of data was determined separately as a percentage in a chart. Teachers defined violence as "whole verbal or physical harming behavior." They considered family reasons to be the main reason for violence at schools and suggest that more effective student advising services and disciplinary regulations be performed as prevention.en10.1080/15388220802067797info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessHigh schoolPrimary schoolSchool violenceTeachers' perceptionViolenceArticle812941Q1
