This study aims to identify the effects of Trauma FocusedCognitive Behavioural Therapy group counselling (TF-CBTGC) towards depression in bully victims among students. The research design used was quasi experiment in time series. The research sample consisted of 32 students (16 males and 16 females), who were chosen through purposive sampling in the state of Selangor. The Depression Anxiety Stress Scale 42 and Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in Group Counselling module were the instruments for this research. The quantitative data in this experimental research were analysed with SPSS Version 20. Mean descriptive statistics, percentage, standard deviation, and t-test inferential statistics were used to analyse the data. Results from the research shows that Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in Group Counselling module is able to decrease the severity of depression among the students who are bully victims, based on their gender. To conclude, by using pairing t-test, it is proven that there is a significant difference on depression between the PRT, PT1, PT2 and PT3 time interval for male bully victims which are: {PRT and PT1( t (15) = 6.86, p < .05)}, { PT1 and PT2 (t (15) = 7.49, p < .05)}, {PT2 and PT3 (t (15) = 5.09 , p < .05), and {PRT and PT3 (t (15) = 9.72 , p < .05)}. While for female bully victims, the results show:, {PRT and PT1(t (15) = 6.40, p < .05 )}, { PT1 and PT2 (t (15) = 3.59, p < .05)}, {PT2 and PT3 ( t (15) = 6.13, p < .05)} and {PRT and PT3 (t (15) = 10.81 , p < .05)}. Based on the analysis of the results, it is shown that TraumaFocused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in Group Counselling module has helped to decrease the depression level of students who are bully victims. Implication of this research is its ability to indirectly enhance counsellors’ efficiency and give new input in overcoming depression among bully victims. An awareness in helping bully victims should be cultivated among counsellors as the victims have to suffer a profound impact on their lives due to bullying. Introduction Bully is defined as repetitive negative behaviour from one party to another. The negative behaviour is aimed to give discomfort or difficulties to another party, for example, deserting an individual, International Journal of Academic Research in Business and Social Sciences Vol. 1 0 , No. 10, 2020, E-ISSN: 2222-6990 © 2020 HRMARS 889 beating, showing obscene gestures, or insulting (Olweus, 1994). According to Rigby (2010), bully behaviour is a negative doing physically, verbally, psychologically and includes boycotting and threatening. Research on bully has been done as early as the 1970s (James, 2010), and it has been getting more attention since bully cases are getting more serious and complex as it has a huge impact on the victims (Hassan, 2016). Bully victims would face mental health problems such as depression and anxiety, that could further lead to suicide. According to Undheim, Wallander and Sund (2016), bully victims will experience higher emotional stress compared to other teenagers who are not involved with bully. Emotional problems and low perseverance in handling stress are among the contributing factors to the bully victims’ depression and causing them to become overstressed. Fekkes et al., (2012), stated that bully behaviour brings many negative effects to the victims which include depression and anxiety that cause an increment in problematic behaviours (Parren et al., 2012), which then lead to loneliness and avoidance from school (Kochenderfer & Ladd, 1996). Sener and Ozan (2013), said bully behaviour is categorized as a worrying state of school violence because the victims are exposed to the after effect of it not only in academic achievement but also in their whole life with a long-term trauma. Due to this effects on the victims, researchers have built a module to help these bully victims with depression. An intervention called Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in Group Counselling module has been developed to help the victims survive and face their lives easier. Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in Group Counselling is carried out based on the TFCBT treatment components, summarized by using the acronym PRACTICE; Psycho-education, Relaxation, Affective regulation and modulation, Cognitive coping and processing, Trauma narrative and cognitive processing of the traumatic experience(s), In vivo mastery of trauma reminders, Conjoint sessions, and Enhancing future safety and development. These components were developed by Cohen, Deblinger, and Mannarino (2006). Objective This research aims to measure the effect of Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in Group Counselling (TF-CBTGC) module towards students who are bully victims, based on: 1. Descriptive analysis on the differences in mean test measurement that is the intervals between PRT, PT1, PT2, and PT3 on depression based on gender of the bully victims. 2. Inferential analysis on the effect of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression with time interval tests between PRT and PT1 in bully victims among male students. 3. Analysis on the effect of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression with time interval tests between PT1 and PT2 in bully victims among male students. 4. Analysis on the effect of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression with time interval tests between PT2 and PT3 in bully victims among male students. 5. Analysis on the effect of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression with time interval tests between PRT1 and PT3 in bully victims among male students. 6. Inferential analysis of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression with time interval tests between PRT and PT1 in bully victims among female students. 7. Analysis on the effect of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression with time interval tests between PT1 and PT2 in bully victims among female students. 8. Analysis on the effect of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression with time interval tests between PT2 and PT3 in bully victims among female students.

Analysis on the effect of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression with time interval tests between PRT1 and PT3 in bully victims among female students. Hypothesis Based on the objectives listed, eight hypotheses were formulated in order to achieve those objectives: i. Null Hypothesis 1 (Ho1): There is no significant difference in the effect of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression between PRT and PT1 time interval tests in bully victims among male students. ii. Null Hypothesis 2 (Ho2): There is no significant difference in the effect of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression between PT1 and PT2 time interval tests in bully victims among male students. iii. Null Hypothesis 3 (Ho3): There is no significant difference in the effect of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression between PT2 and PT3 time interval tests in bully victims among male students. iv. Null Hypothesis 4 (Ho4): There is no significant difference in the effect of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression between PRT and PT3 time interval tests in bully victims among male students. v. Null Hypothesis 5 (Ho5): There is no significant difference in the effect of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression between PRT1 and PT1 time interval tests in bully victims among female students. vi. Null Hypothesis 6 (Ho6): There is no significant difference in the effect of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression between PT1 and PT2 time interval tests in bully victims among female students. vii. Null Hypothesis 7 (Ho7): There is no significant difference in the effect of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression between PT2 and PT3 time interval tests in bully victims among female students. viii. Null Hypothesis 8 (Ho8): There is no significant difference in the effect of TF-CBTGC intervention towards depression between PRT and PT3 time interval tests in bully victims among female students. Methodology Design: The researcher chose and applied quasi experimental design in time series aiming to measure the variables of effectiveness on the experimental group (male and female group) repetitively and in a fixed period of time. This research design has been selected as the most suitable design for this research (Raflepour, 2003). The time series quasi experimental design takes a long time to complete and does not have a control group since it only involves treatment group. Data is collected from the research sample a few times after the treatment was given. This design uses multiple crossover techniques that involve a time series treatment. Instrument: Two instruments were used which include the DASS original version that contains 42 items, developed by Peter Lovinbond of the University of New South Wales, Australia, to measure the level of depression severity of the students who are bully victims. The second instrument was Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in Group Counselling Module developed by Jais et al. International Journal of Academic Research in Business and Social Sciences Vol. 1 0 , No. 10, 2020, E-ISSN: 2222-6990 © 2020 HRMARS 891 (2015). However, this module has been modified to suit the subjects of this research and to focus more on the bully victims. Findings from the analysis showed that this module has good content validity with the average score of 86% or .86 given by six experts on the module. Location: This experimental research involved students who are bully victims from three schools in the district of Hulu Langat, Selangor. Subject Selection: The subjects were chosen based on purposive sampling, referring to the sampling procedure where a group of subjects that possess certain characteristics is chosen to be the research respondents (Johnson & Christensen, 2000). Among the characteristics considered were students who: i. have obtained an average score on
