Background and purpose: Since bullying can severely affect the psycho-social, academic, and even physical health of all the children involved especially the victims, the present study aims to determine the effectiveness of the Elvis intervention program in reducing bullying among elementary school students. Except for the first grade, the city of Khalidabad was conducted in the academic year 97-98. Method: The current research was semi-experimental with a pre-test, post-test design, and a control group. For this purpose, among 244 students, 30 students were selected using the available sampling method and were randomly placed in two experimental and control groups. After that, the revised Bully-Victim Questionnaire of Olweus (1996) was implemented as a pre-test for all students, and then the Olweus intervention program was taught to the experimental group separately, and at the end, the post-test was implemented. Findings: The obtained data were analyzed by covariance analysis and SPSS software. The findings indicated the effectiveness of Olweus's anti-bullying program in reducing the bullying of experimental group students (p<0.05). Conclusion: According to this finding, it is suggested that implementing anti-bullying programs comprehensively at the level of the country's schools should be considered by education officials.
