Description

From the editors: In the decade following the 1999 shooting at Columbine High School, there have been at least 40 similar homicidal events at schools in other countries, as well as numerous other cases involving threatened and averted attacks. The fear of a school shooting has stimulated demand for new school safety and security measures, as well as revisions to discipline policies and practices around the world. Most of these well-intended efforts have been undertaken without benefit of scientific study and evaluation. More broadly, there is a compelling need to understand the developmental and social processes that have motivated so many youth to contemplate, threaten and in some cases carry out, a mass murder at school. This issue of New Directions for Youth Development assembles an international group of scholars and practitioners to identify the most promising new strategies for preventing homicidal attacks by students. The authors address the conceptual problems and methodological barriers to rigorous research, point out important findings across a variety of fields, and offer guidance for future study. They delineate the complex roles of peer and media influences on troubled students and they describe innovative approaches for responding to student threats and leakage of violent intentions. Several articles document effective methods of cooperation and collaboration between mental health and public safety authorities. Together, these articles refute the common misunderstanding the extreme acts of violence are so rare and unpredictable that prevention is futile, and instead provide convincing evidence and new direction or the development of comprehensive school safety and violence prevention measures.
