Employing <em>structural equation modeling-partial least squares</em> (SEM-PLS) with SmartPLS software, the results indicate that emotional intelligence has a significant negative effect on bullying (T-statistic = 8.191; p-value = 0.000) and a significant positive effect on religiosity (T-statistic = 6.944; p-value = 0.000). Furthermore, religiosity was found to have a significant negative effect on <em>bullying</em> (T-statistic = 5.576; p-value = 0.000). Mediation analysis confirmed that religiosity significantly mediates the relationship between emotional intelligence and <em>bullying</em> (T-statistic = 4.314; p-value = 0.000). It implies that emotional intelligence reduces <em>bullying</em> not only directly but also indirectly by fostering increased religiosity. This research highlights the importance of developing emotional intelligence and nurturing religiosity as effective strategies for <em>bullying</em> prevention in schools.</p> 2026-04-19T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Fadlul Hayat Lubis, Suryani Hardjo, Yudistira Fauzi Indrawan
