Accordingly, this study revisits the crossover between the two types of victimization and whether there are similarities and differences in risk factors between the two groups i. Literature Review Bullying among youth, particularly in online fora, continues to inspire international concern - especially given the rapid advancement of technology and the subsequent rise in new types of social media. Moreover, young online users are also sharing more information about themselves through social media compared to years past Madden et al. While the utilization of social media can have several benefits for young people e.
As the blending of online and offline social life continues to occur with the rapid advancement of technology Gergen, ; Turkle, , research has called attention to the overlap between traditional offline bullying and cyberbullying Olweus, However, cyberbullying sets itself apart from traditional bullying in several important ways: In fact, Olweus found that over 85 percent of youth exposed to cyberbullying had also been exposed to some form of offline bullying.
Accordingly, we hypothesize H1 that children who were bullied offline were more likely to be cyberbullied than children who had not been bullied offline. Impact of Social Technology Use, Sociability, and Emotions on Cyberbullying Previous studies of various forms of cyberbullying found that youth react to experiencing victimization in various ways. While some cyberbullied youth report being unfazed by their experiences, others experienced a range of emotions: Research also indicates that, while both offline and online forms of interpersonal aggression are problematic, cyberbullied youth reported greater social difficulties and psychological ramifications compared to victims of offline bullying Campbell et al.
In fact, findings from several studies suggest SNS have become a venue for cyberbullying and other problematic Internet behaviors Ackers, ; Bossler et al.

Therefore, we hypothesize H2 that children who used SNS daily were more likely to be cyberbullied than children who did not use SNS daily. Boulton and Underwood's study revealed that bullying victims often did not have close friends and, thus, tended to spend more time alone at school. Yet, children who had close friends tended to exhibit an emotional disposition e. With this in mind, we hypothesize H3 that children who spent more time with friends outside of school were less likely to be victims of cyberbullying. We argue that children who are emotionally invested in their online interactions were more likely to identify and recall events as cyberbullying, because these events had a greater impact on their feelings compared to children less invested in online social interactions.

Aside from these variables, other less explored risk factors were included in this study e. Risky Online Behaviors and Risk of Experiencing Cyberbullying As social life becomes increasingly intertwined with technology, more youth are accessing mobile devices at an early age. Sexting — or the transmission of nude or partially nude photos or videos via some technology — has gained increasing recognition as a social problem D'Antona et al. The aforementioned figures are especially troubling given that several high profile teen suicides that stemmed from unrelenting cyberbullying ultimately began with sexting e.
Of the few studies of sexting and cyberbullying, Dake et al. Emerging cyberbullying research has also begun to focus on the overlap between victim and offender as a risk factor for experiencing cyberbullying. In conjunction with previous literature, we hypothesize H6 youth who cyberbullied others were more likely to be bullied than to those who did not cyberbully others. Finally, this study examines a risk factor that has not been considered in any other cyberbullying study to the best of our knowledge: As with other risk factors, we hypothesize H7 that children who lied about their age online were more likely to be cyberbullied than children who did not engage in this behavior.
Impact of Parental Guardianship on Cyberbullying Unfortunately, while the aforementioned research has advanced our understanding of risk factors associated with experiencing cyberbullying, less is known about what factors effectively mitigate risk — particularly concerning parental guardianship. Unlike offline bullying, cyberbullying presents unique challenges to parents — and to users themselves — in guarding against victimization. Moreover, while certain online activities are officially monitored e.

Due to previous findings regarding the largely ineffective role of filters and software programs to prevent cybervictimization, scholars are beginning to explore other forms of parental guardianship. Moreover, other studies found that, as parents employed increased guardianship over youth, the risk of cyberbullying actually increased Marcum, Although previous studies were limited in their ability to establish directionality in these relationships e.

Accordingly, we hypothesize H8 that the children of parents who talked to them about online safety were less likely to experience cyberbullying than children whose parents did not talk to them about appropriate online behaviors. The survey consisted of telephone interviews with a sample of parents and their children — ages 12 to 17 — in the U. Specifically, the use of SNS was operationalized as the daily use of these sites, which was created by conducting a recode of the following survey question in which the values were reversed: SNS undoubtedly constitutes online behavior; however, children can be connected to the Internet, generally, and SNS, specifically, through their cell phones.
It is necessary, then, to move beyond the binary notion of children either being online or being offline. To account for this, Internet use via cell phone was also measured. It was operationalized as the response to the following survey question: Due to secondary data constraints, the measure used in this study did not focus on the bond between the person and the SNS, as objects, but rather attachment to the interactions SNS provide.

Second, children were asked the following: Third, following a series of questions about how the respondent i. How often have you joined in the harassment? Analytical Strategy Using SPSS 22, a 2x2 cross-tabulation of the weighted data that included a chi-square test and risk estimate and three multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to examine the impact of the independent variables on the likelihood of being cyberbullied as well as being bullied offline.
In such cases, the following equation was used to extrapolate probabilities from the log-odds provided in the SPSS output: The goals of reporting probabilities were simply to clarify the nature of and further develop the findings from the odd ratios. Results In this study, approximately 8 percent of children were victims of cyberbullying, while over 12 percent of children were victims of traditional offline bullying. These figures support previous research indicating the average across-time prevalence for experiencing cyberbullying is about five percent, whereas the average across-time prevalence for being bullied offline is nearly 18 percent Olweus, These percentages reveal that bullying is not necessarily shifting from traditional offline bullying to cyberbullying or becoming an epidemic Sabella et al.
A simple 2x2 cross tabulation using weighted data revealed that nearly 55 percent First, general behavioral factors — i. Furthermore, consistent with hypothesis three H3 , the more often children spent time with friends in person outside of school, the less likely they were to be cyberbullied. Generally, engaging in risky online behaviors does increase the likelihood of being cyberbullied H5, H7. In addition to confirming previous research suggesting that children who spend more time with friends are less likely to be bullied, the findings provide evidence that online behaviors impact the likelihood of being bullied offline.
That is, consistent with previous research e. Bullying on the pixel playground: Seiler 1 , Jordana N.
