Abstrakt: The COVID-19 pandemic influenced adolescents' psychological wellbeing and the frequency of bullying and cyberbullying. Literature highlights that self-compassion could protect adolescents' mental health. In the present study, the impact of the neuropsychopedagogical training Envisioning the Future (EF) on adolescents is investigated. Three-hundred and fourteen (N=314) Italian adolescents (59% females; Mean age=15.41 years, SD=1.94) answered an online questionnaire in two stages, at the beginning (t1) and end (t2) of EF. The questionnaire included the Self-Compassion Scale (Neff, 2003; Veneziani et al., 2017) and two ad-hoc items on the perceived frequency of bullying and cyberbullying episodes among peers (0=never to 4=once a day). Data were analyzed using paired sample t-tests with frequentist and Bayesian approaches. From pre-to post-EF, frequentist t-tests reveal an increase in self-kindness t(314)=-2.68, p=.008, common humanity t(313)=-3.76, p<.001, frequency with which adolescents perceive bullying t(313)=-8.9, p<.001 and cyberbullying t(313)=-5.22, p<.001. Bayesian t-tests corroborate the results, revealing extreme evidence (BF10<100) of an increase in the perceived frequency of bullying and cyberbullying, strong evidence (30
