Hurtful Behavior Scale

The Hurtful Behavior Scale is a tool used to measure how often and severely someone engages in actions that may cause emotional pain or harm to others. It assesses behaviors such as teasing, excluding, or disrespecting people, helping professionals understand the impact of these actions. The scale provides a structured way to identify patterns of hurtful behavior, supporting efforts to promote positive interactions and address issues like bullying or social conflict. It’s useful in various settings, including schools or therapy, to improve social well-being and relationships.
