Abstract-Cyberbullying has emerged as an important and growing social problem, wherein people use online social networks and mobile phones to bully victims with offensive text, images, audio and video on a 24/7 basis. This paper studies negative user behavior in the Ask.fm social network, a popular new site that has led to many cases of cyberbullying, some leading to suicidal behavior. We examine the occurrence of negative words in Ask.fm's question+answer profiles along with the social network of "likes" of questions+answers. We also examine properties of users with "cutting" behavior in this social network.
In REF authors leveraged both likes and comments to identify negative behavior in the Ask.fm social network.
