School Safety Administration on People in Society and Social Media Violence under the Office of the Private Education Commission Bangkok

Abstract

The objectives of this research were 1) to examine the administration of school safety in response to societal pressures and social media violence within schools under the jurisdiction of the Commission of Private Education in Bangkok, and 2) to analyze the relationship between this safety administration and social media violence, regarding school size. The sample, drawn via stratified random sampling, comprised 215 school administrators and teachers, selected based on the number of teaching staff at each school. The research instrument was a questionnaire, yielding an Index of Item-Objective Congruence (IOC) between .67-1.0 and a reliability score of .98. Statistical analyses of the data were conducted using percentage calculations, mean, standard deviation, Chi-square, one-way ANOVA, and content analysis. The study yielded the following results: 1) Both administrators and teachers exhibited a high level of practice in terms of school safety administration against societal pressures and social media violence. 2) A significant correlation was observed between school safety administration in terms of societal and social media violence and school size within the purview of the Private Education Commission in Bangkok, significant at the .01 level.
