Bullying. Gang assaults. Rampage shootings. School violence, especially when it turns deadly, has enduring social and psychological effects on students, faculty, staff, and the community. And though a great deal of research focuses on the significant role children’s positive social development plays in reducing incidents of school violence, in-depth examinations of evidence-based preventive measures have remained minimal until now.

clarifies the links between bullying and lethal violence and delineates typical characteristics of school shooters while cautioning against outright profiling. Students’ awareness of self and others, strong connections with adults, and other social and ethical skills form the basis of a comprehensive, research-based model for reducing—and potentially eliminating—lethal incidents at school.

This accessible volume:

is a must-have resource for researchers and professionals in school psychology and allied education disciplines, including school administration, school counseling, and social work.

“Preventing Lethal School Violence will be of special interest to school counselors as well as to school administrators and teachers. … also be relevant for graduate faculty and students in counseling, psychology, and school psychology master’s and doctoral programs. … should be of interest to parents, community leaders, and law enforcement personnel, all of whom can play a role in preventing lethal school violence. All in all, this slender volume packs a big punch, tackling with vigor and promise a deplorable aspect of modern society.” (John M. Davis and Randall E. Osborne, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 56 (54), October, 2011)
