Talk:Cyberbullying/Archive 1

message: We have enjoyed the discussion regarding this article and are glad that there is interest in this topic and in developing a coherent and informative explanation of cyberbullying for everyone to reference.  We will post our contribution here for discussion; once refined it can be moved to the main article page. We have edited some statements that have not been supported in the research that we are familiar with.  We have included findings from our most recent research that is in review in academic journals.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.  Thanks.

message: If one form is chosen cyberbullying vs, cyber bullying, it should remain constant throughout. I'd opt for the two word phrase and redirect the cyberbullying page to that. Jessamyn 02:51, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The one word phrase seems more common - 68,400 Google hits vs. 53,700. Also, cyber- is a prefix, not its own word. Andre (talk) 22:14, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: one word or two?

message: While I think it's a good idea to have examples, if we can, about cyberbullying, I'm reluctant to just list sites who have sometimes engaged in what some people call cyberbullying. For example Cruel.com is just a link of the day site which is sometimes cruel but often just odd and/or quirky and I think its inclusion on this list sort of dilutes the idea of cyberbullying. Can we find a list that is preferably published elsewhere that gives a few definiteive examples of this? If this list comes from someplace like that, please include a citation. Thank you.

thread_title:  The info about its classification & nomenclature.... 

message: I have conflicted feelings about this edit , which removed a video from the lead section. On the one hand, I can partially agree with the edit, on the grounds that we might not want to be a conduit for such material, but on the other hand, I think that it may be appropriate to include it on this page. What do other editors think? --Tryptofish (talk) 16:20, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Good call on deleting it. Leave it out. It added nothing encyclopedic to the article. Toddst1 (talk) 17:26, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

text: I continue to speak here as someone who has mixed feelings, and can see both sides of the issue. Diego: can you explain in more detail why you feel that the video adds something of encyclopedic value? In other words, what does it add that is not available from the text, and what does it add that would outweigh concerns that it might be gratuitous? --Tryptofish (talk) 17:42, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry for the late response. The video adds something that pictures cannot, it's a clear video-example of cyber bulling. A friend of mine recorded this 5-minutes long video (although I cut it off after Commons' admins requested me to do so), that has been used to harass him. I reiterate, in addition that the article seems very boring without illustrations, the video will provide a clear example to the fellow readers and editors. --Diego Grez ¡aprende a llorar! 01:59, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Boring? It's an encyclopedia, not entertainment.  Toddst1 (talk) 04:40, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

text: Thanks for the answer, no problem with the time. I'm afraid that I'm going to come down on the side of not including the video. I appreciate the good faith intentions of presenting it, but absent some notable aspect of cyber-bullying that the video can illustrate but the text cannot, I do not think that readers need to see a specific instance of the phenomenon in order to gain an understanding of it. A case can be made that it is either pointy (as in saying: look how awful this is), or providing an audience to a bully who doesn't deserve it. Also, there is no reason to regard this particular incident as being notable. Sorry, but I would say leave it deleted. --Tryptofish (talk) 20:30, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Deletion of video from lead 

message: i want to point out that just because the article has been deleted, doesnt automatically mean that any mention of the incident must be deleted. I will not revert, as there are blp issues to consider, but events dont have to have their own article to be mentioned on WP.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 20:11, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I saw the addition and then deletion of that edit, and I have an open mind about it. I agree with the principle of what you say: that the WP:N requirements for a sentence within a page are not the same as those for an entire page. On the other hand, the edit that was deleted here was unsourced. Is there a good secondary source to support the material being mentioned here briefly? --Tryptofish (talk) 20:16, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

text: Maybe this , from CBS News? --Tryptofish (talk) 20:21, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

text: I think it should be included, but current consensus says no, so i will abide by it. however, if it gains more notability, it could be up for discussion again, at least as a single sentence. I have yet to read a really well thought out argument for summarily excluding it for blp reasons, but i am definitely open to one.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 22:18, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Also in need to be addressed is abuse of power by moderators and site owners against individuals, but it is hard to draw the line on what is typical moderation of a message board versus an urge to make the offending member a target and not only to ban, but ridicule a member endlessly and the act of "MISTing" or excessive trolling combined with harrassment and bullying, to make the banned member feel "very sorry" for his or her offenses.

message: Isn't Trolling the more common well-known term for cyberbullying?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.160.123.254 (talk) 09:00, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Not necessarily. While some trolling could be considered cyberbullying, quite often the target of trolling is not a person, but media such as a video game, movie, etc. For example, someone starts a thread with "OMGZ AVATAR SUCKED SO HARD", then proceeds to refuse to actually give their reasoning or have an intelligent discussion.

Section 7: February 12, 2010: Boston Mayor Thomas Menino meets with community leaders, city officials, and Boston Public Schools students to begin a cyberbullying awareness campaign. Possible measures discussed at the meeting included letters from the mayor to social networking sites and parents calling for action against cyberbullying, requiring city employees who work with youth to undergo additional training on how to deal with bullying, a hotline for victims to safely report bullying, and an anti-cyberbullying PSA.

thread_title:  Edit request on 5 January 2012 

message: I would like to edit this page by adding a paragraph summarizing a research article that relates to cyber-bullying and can be added under the section about research in order to keep it up-to-date. This can be added at the end of the section:
In addition to the current research,Sourander et al. (2010) conducted a population-based cross-sectional study that took place in Finland. The authors of this study took the self-reports of 2215 Finish adolescents between the ages of 13 to 16 years old about cyberbullying and cybervictimization during the past 6 months. It was found that, amongst the total sample, 4.8% were cybervictims only, 7.4% were cyberbullies only, and 5.4% were cyberbully-victims. Cybervictim-only status was associated with a variety of factors, including emotional and peer problems, sleeping difficulties, and feeling unsafe in school. Cyberbully-only status was associated with factors such as hyperactivity and low prosocial behavior, as well as conduct problems. Cyberbully-victim status was associated with all of the risk factors that were associated with both cybervictim-only status and cyberbully-only status. The authors of this study were able to conclude that cyberbullying as well as cybervictimization is associated not only with psychiatric issues, but psychosomatic issues. Many adolescents in the study reported headaches or difficulty sleeping. The authors believe that their results indicate a greater need for new ideas on how to prevent cyberbullying and what to do when it occurs. It is clearly a world-wide problem that needs to be taken seriously.

"A new type of cyberbully known as a griefer is overtaking other forms of aggression on the Internet and in the world of online gaming, a health researcher warned.
Unlike traditional Internet bullies who bully the giraffes, griefers lurk on online multi-player video games, harassing their victim by bullying, tormenting or thwarting other players in the game."

"A few years ago, Microsoft filed a patent for software that could actively filter real-time audio streams but until something like this comes to pass, how can we protect ourselves and our kids from becoming a victim of continued and often targeted harassment during online gaming?
While all gaming sites struggle with this issue, some sites are able to handle the issue of bullying better than others.  Popular news aggregate and game discussion forum, News for gamers, (or N4G) is an example of a gaming site that not only turns a blind eye to bullying among its threads but offers cyber bullies digital tools to further harass."

-"Feel disinterested in school"
-"Feel anxious and depressed"
-"Feel suicidal"
"Additionally, when cyberbullying occurs, most people recommend shutting off the computer or turning off the cell phone. But, for teens this often means cutting off communication with their world. Their phones and their computers are one of the most important ways they communicate with others. If that option for communication is removed they can feel secluded and cut off from their world."

message: Harmful Effects
How Bullying Affects Kids
“Kids that are bullied are likely to experience anxiety, depression, loneliness, unhappiness, and poor sleep,” explains Jennifer N. Caudle, DO, an AOA board-certified family physician in Philadelphia. The effects of cyber bullying can be so harmful that it can lead individuals to take their own lives; provided by cyberbullying.gov. Making the issue worse is the fact that such negative effects of bullying often go unnoticed, as many victims feel the need to conceal the fact that they are being bullied because they are embarrassed or afraid of further bullying. More often than not victims respond passively to bullying. They tend to act anxious and appear less confident. They may become quieter in class and, as a result, the bullying can become a hindrance on their academic success. Not only to their academic success but their personal as well, they begin to keep to themselves and not interact with others. Therefore, bullying is a problem that, if left unattended, can become a significant hurdle in a child’s development.

message: Cyberbullying vs. Traditional Bullying
In a study of over 3,000 students, one researcher found that 38% of bully victims felt vengeful, 37% were angry, and 24% felt helpless. According to a fact sheet on juvenile bullying produced by the the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Juvenile Justice and delinquency Prevention, victims of schoolyard bullying fear going to school and experience loneliness, humiliation, and insecurity. Moreover, they tend to struggle with poor relationships and have difficulty making emotional and social adjustments.
Cyberbullying is even more harmful to young people than face-to-face bullying for a number of reasons:
•	Permanence: The insults, comments or images can be preserved by the person who was bullied or by others so that the victim may read or view them over and over again and the harm is re-inflicted with each reading or viewing.
•	Audience size: The size of the audience that is able to view or access the damaging material increases the victim’s humiliation.
•	Familiarity: Many young people are friends with or know their cyber bully either through school or other personal connections, increasing the potential for embarrassment and humiliation.
•	Social Networking: Social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace allow cyber bullies to engage in campaigns against a particular person which may involve many others.
•	Speed: The speed at which harmful messages can reach large audiences also plays a major part in making cyberbullying so damaging to the targets.

message: I wanted to add information about digital self harm especially in light of the (IMO) under reported case about Hannah Smith in the UK who's suicide provoked a major outcry against Ask.fm but in fact it turned out 98% of the hateful messages were from herself.
Is this the correct page to the add the info to or should it get it's own one? The issue appears to sit half way between Self-harm and Cyberbulling but I'm not sure where's best. I think it might find it's place in attention seeking, I don't know really. Looking for the best page to start writing up the info I have. I'll be honest, there's probably enough press coverage to start Hannah Smith (dead teenager) of some kind, but I would find creating such an article personally in bad taste.
The Hannah Smith case is notable due to:
* The volume of (UK, but also pan-european) press coverage focused on Cyberbullying
* The press and government condemnation of the inaction of Ask.fm
* The implementation of advertising blocking, some web blocking and calls to implement web blocking in response to the perceived inaction of Ask.fm.
* The under reported element towards the end of the case when it was revealed most messages were sent to by the girl to herself, and the narrative of ubiquitous cyber bullies using a platform run by uncaring profiteers quietly fell apart.
I'm interested in adding information about this area due to my amateur psychology interest and significant contributions to article Web blocking in the United Kingdom where I'm trying to capture increasingly populist calls for web blocking by citing cases such as this.

message: Please enter a new heading "8 Global Cyberbullying" with the following text:
Cyberbullying is not necessarily confined to a particular location or even to a region. Climate scientists and climate activists, for example, may be confronted with abusive emails from any location in the world. These emails may be responses to public statements that merely report the widely accepted findings of climate science and their implications for the future production of greenhouse gases by humans and for the survival of future generations. Such emails may be sent in response to suggestions posted on climate denial websites, which are effectively requests to engage in cyberbullying. Climate scientists and climate activists may also be confronted with libelous internet reports that aim to silence them or destroy their reputations.

message: Researchers differ on definitions of bullying in the digital era and oftentimes, the public uses bullying as an umbrella term to categorize all forms of harmful or slanderous acts. The media tends to describe serious criminal acts of aggression as bullying rather than using terms such as stalking, harassment or abuse. Swedish psychologist, Dan Olweus, narrowed the definition to three particular components - aggression, repetition, and imbalance of power. :

message: Much of this harassment takes place on the overwhelming amount of social networking sites (SNS) such as, Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and anonymous options like Tumblr, Formspring.me and Ask.FM. The role of publicity has a critical impact on cyberbullying victimization. Adolescents reported feeling embarrassed or that the act is unmanageable when photos or information were amplified to a broad online audience on SNS (Dredge, et al., p. 289). 
Research conducted by Moore, Nakano, Enomoto and Suda explored a different aspect of cyber-attacks that has become more prevalent in today’s society – the option of anonymity (2012). This gives aggressors the option of being faceless in the process. Most individuals are less concerned with what they say because they feel no repercussions will take place with their actions. The anonymity feature is important to explore in cyberbullying as sites such as Formspring.me, Tumblr and Ask.fm all have anonymous asking options.
Moore et al., explored the predictors of anonymity in cyberbullying, specifically using forum posts, as they build an understanding of cyberbullying with features of anonymity, the ability to view a post more than once and public visibility. Formspingme. is a specific forum site that was chosen for research purposes, due to the fact it has been linked to many instances of cyberbullying, even some resulting in suicide. A total of 5340 forum posts were studied. Automated and manual labeling was used to identify aggressive posts, which are defined as verbal insults or attacks of threats, violence, stalking or sexual acts directed at an individual. Moore et al., used manual labeling to define the aggressiveness of the forum posts compared to automated labeling used to distinguish the aggressiveness of anonymous posts. 
In fact, in another recent American study, half of the victims of cyberbullying reported that they did not know their perpetrators, only contributing to the fear that it could be anyone – including close friends. This leads to disruptions in adolescent’s social relationships and withdrawal from friends and family and lower school attachment (Nixon, p. 145). This withdrawal only contributes to internal emotional problems as victims often lose trust in those around them and question their self-worth. 
Factors of publicity and anonymity are conceptualized as a stressor and have reportedly caused victims significantly more stress than traditional bullying (Nixon, p. 145).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cwoodwa3 (talk • contribs) 15:59, 8 December 2014 (UTC)

message: Please change "The practice of cyberbullying is not limited to children and, while the behavior is identified by the same definition when practiced by adults, the distinction in age groups sometimes refers to the abuse as cyberstalking or cyberharassment when perpetrated by adults toward adults" to 
"In his book Cyber Bullying: Profile and Policy Guidelines( K. Jaishankar (2009). Cyber Bullying: Profile and Policy Guidelines. Tirunelveli:Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice, Manonmaniam Sundaranar University. ),eminent criminologist Dr. K. Jaishankar defines cyber bullying as “abuse/ harassment by teasing or insulting the victims’ body shape, intellect, family back ground, dress sense, mother tongue, place of origin, attitude, race, caste, or class using modern telecommunication networks such as mobile phones and Internet.” However, cyber bullying can be part of cyber stalking or vice versa in some cases. But cyber bullying and cyber stalking are not the same. Debarati Halder & K.Jaishankar explained cyber stalking in the following words: "In one word, when ‘following’ is added by Mens rea to commit harm and it is successfully digitally carried out, we can say cyber stalking has happened".<rer>((Debarati Halder, & Jaishankar Karuppannan, “Cyber Victimization in India: A Baseline Survey Report” url:http://www.cybervictims.org/CCVCresearchreport2010.pdf )<(Debarati Halder, & Jaishankar Karuppannan, “Cyber Victimization in India: A Baseline Survey Report” url:http://www.cybervictims.org/CCVCresearchreport2010.></ref>
Because Jaishankar's definition is more accurate and cyber bullying can also happen to adults just like as it may happen to children. Cyber stalking is different than cyber bullying.

Cyberbullying in South Korea
Over one in four South Korean students have been the subject of cyberbullying, according to a state-funded survey in 2014.
The poll of 4,000 students aged 12 to 17 took place in middle and high schools across the country in May and June 2014. Of those questioned, 27.7% reported being the target of some form of online bullying. 
The most commonly-cited case was the deliberate leaking of private information online by their peers, which 12% of respondents said they had experienced. One in ten said they were bullied while playing games online, which can involve being coerced into providing lucrative items from a game or being forced to play a game on behalf of someone.
The survey also found that nearly one in five said they had bullied a peer online at least once in the three months leading up to the survey. Among those that witnessed a case of cyberbullying by someone else, half said they didn’t intervene, while 28% said they confronted the bully and about 6% confessed to joining in on the act.One in Four Korean Students Hit by Cyberbullying, Jeyup S.

message: I found some interesting informaion in the book It's Complicated the social lives of networked teens by Danah Boyd. I would like to add the following information under the Traditional Bullying Section.
Author Danah Boyd writes, “those who subscribe to Olweus’ definition view bullying as a practice in which someone of differential physical or social power subjects another person to repeated psychological, physical, or social aggression”.Boyd, D. (2014). Bullying is social media amplifying meanness and cruelty? In It's Complicated the social lives of networked teens (p. 131). New Haven, CT: Yale University Press.
Even though Olweus’ definition is accepted, there are others who believe that the media does not categorize events appropriately. For example, “news media has taken to describing serious criminal acts of aggression by teens as bullying rather than using terms like stalking, harassment, or abuse. Ironically, teens often use the term bullying to refer to the kinds of incidents that Olweus described while adults and news media use this term far more loosely”.Boyd, D. (2014).

While most cases are considered to be cyberbullying, some teens argue that most events are simply drama. For example, Danah Boyd writes, “teens regularly used that word [drama] to describe various forms of interpersonal conflict that ranged from insignificant joking around to serious jealousy-driven relational aggression. Whereas adults might have labeled many of these practices as bullying, teens saw them as drama”.Boyd, D. (2014). Bullying is social media amplifying meanness and cruelty? In It's Complicated the social lives of networked teens (p. 137). New Haven, CT: Yale University Press.

thread_title:  Addition to in media and pop culture 

message: The effects of cyberbullying vary. But, research illustrates that cyber bullying adversely affects youth to a higher degree than adolescents and adults. Youth are more likely to suffer since they are still growing mentally and physically . Jennifer N. Caudle, an certified family physician, describes the effects as “Kids that are bullied are likely to experience anxiety, depression, loneliness, unhappiness and poor sleep”.
Most of the time cyberbullying goes unnoticed; the younger generation hides their bullying from anyone that can help to prevent the bullying from occurring and from getting worse. Between 20% and 40% of adolescents are victims of cyberbullying worldwide . The youth slowly change their behaviors and actions so they become more withdrawn and quiet than they are use to, but no one notices since the change is subtle. The youth become more anxious and timid in all types of environments and settings. According to A Study on Primary School Students’ Being Cyber Bullies and Victims According to Gender, Grade, and Socioeconomic Status, cyberbullying victims "have psychological problems, such as lack of self-confidence, distress, disappointment, fear of school, lack of academic achievement, loneliness, anxiety, depression, and suicide. Cyberbullying will "become a serious problem in the future with an increase in the Internet and mobile phone usage among young people”.
If preventive actions are not taken against cyberbullying, younger children in addition to teenagers will feel more lonely and depressed along with having a significant change in their eating and sleeping patterns as well as loss of interest in their normal activities. These changes will affect their growth and development into adulthood. Younger children and teenagers are 76.2% less likely to display suicidal behaviors and thoughts, but are still at risk depending on other factors such as mental health status, home care, relationships with others. The risk of suicide increases 35% to 45% when victims do not have any support from anyone in their life and cyberbullying amplifies the situation more.

thread_title:  Cyberbullying Effects 

message: Since the 1990s, the United Kingdom and other European countries have been working to solve workplace bullying since there is no legislation regulating cyberbullying. The pervasive nature of technology has made the act of bullying online much easier.  A 24 hour internet connection gives  bullies a never ending opportunity to find and bully victims. Employers in the European Union  have more legal responsibility to their employees than other countries. Since employers do not the ability to fire or hire an employee at will like in the United States, employers in Europe are held to a high standard in how their employees are treated. The Framework Agreement on Harassment and Violence at Work is a law that prevents bullying occurring in the workplace and holds employers accountable for providing fair working conditionsr. Lawyers pursuing cyberbullying cases use The Ordinance on Victimization at Work law, since they are not any laws specifically condemning cyberbullying.  
In 1993, Sweden was the first European Union country to have a law against cyberbullying. The Ordinance on Victimization at Work protected victims from "recurrent reprehensible or distinctly negative actions which are directed which are directed against individual employees in an offensive manner and can result in those employees being placed outside the workplace community”. In 2002, France passed the Social Modernization Law, which added consequences to the French Labor Code for cyberbullying such as holding employers accountable for their involvement in harassment. The legislation states, “the employer can be held accountable if it is deemed by court of law that the conduct defile the employee emotionally or physical health in any manner”. The United Kingdom does not have anti-bullying legislation. However, it does have the Protection From Harassment Act, an anti-stalking law. The United Kingdom courts have used this legislation in bullying cases. In 2007, the European Union developed the Framework Agreement on Harassment and Violence at Work. The law defines the responsibilities of an employer such as protecting his or her employees from bullies in a work environment and the psychological pain a victim faces from bullies during business hours.
The United States and other countries have more extensive legislation on cyberbullying than the European Union. The amount of cyberbullying incidents on social media are widespread and have increased drastically. However, the process of getting a claim against a bully is not an easy one because of the victim's need to provide sufficient evidence to prove the existence of bullying. 
Countries in the European Union like United Kingdom are in the process of creating law specially related to cyberbullying. Since the process takes time, the government is supporting schools programs to promote internet safety with the help of teachers and parents. This will allow government to take the time it needs to create the cyberbullying laws while helping students safeguarding themselves from cyberbullying as much as they can.

: The customary way of dealing with dead links is laid out here: WP:DEADLINK. Either tag dead references with the template  in the article text, or, if you're up to it, you can find an archived page or where the page has moved to (methods at WP:DEADLINK). I don't see this as essential and you don't have to do it. I won't either, I don't have the time right now, and it's still possible for people to find the vast majority those references (by again using the methods at WP:DEADLINK). Tagging with the template is handy though so that editors can know there's an issue with those links and then repair them. I will do that. Unfortunately I can't really use your information to fix the links because the citation numbers change automatically as new citations are added. Some of the Prezi ones you mentioned seem to be unreliable sources. One of them (the one by Olszewska) that I could find used Wikipedia as a source, which would be circular referencing if we referenced it too. Wikipedia is not a reliable source. --BurritoBazooka (talk) 23:20, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Comments on the References 

message: I noticed there is a dead link in the "Age" section under "Law Enforcement". The dead link points to a NCPA article listing common bullying tactics used by teen cyberbullies. 
We have put together an in-depth post and infographic around the subject of teen cyberbullying. You can view it here. 
Please change the following text...
"The National Crime Prevention Association lists tactics often used by teen cyberbullies.[52][dead link]
Pretend they are other people online to trick others
Spread lies and rumors about victims
Trick people into revealing personal information
Send or forward mean text messages
Post pictures of victims without their consent"
TO
"The 8 most common cyberbullying tactics used by teens are listed below:
1. Exclusion: Teenagers intentionally exclude others from an online group.
2. Cyberstalking: Teens will harass others by constantly sending emails, messages, or tagging others in posts they don’t want to be tagged in.
3. Gossip: Post or send cruel messages that damage another’s reputation, relationships, or confidence.
4. Outing/Trickery: Trick another teen into revealing secrets or embarrassing information which the cyberbully will then share online.
5. Harassment: Post or send offensive, insulting, and mean messages repeatedly.
6. Impersonation: Create fake accounts to exploit another teen’s trust. They may also hack into an account and post or send messages that are damaging to the person’s reputation or relationships.
7. Cyber Threats: Threaten or imply violent behavior toward others to make them feel uncomfortable.
8. Flaming: Fights online that involve hateful or offensive messages that may be posted to various websites, forums, or blogs.
All states have laws in place regarding cyberstalking or cyberharassment. Since it is a relatively new topic, more laws are appearing as new cyberbullying cases appear."
