The rapid growth of electronic and computer-based communication and information sharing during the past decade has dramatically changed social interactions, especially among teenagers. Cyberbullying has emerged as a new form of bullying and harassment, and it has been shown to possess different ramifications from traditional school-yard bullying. This problem has emerged in nations worldwide. Cyber victims have reported various emotional and behavioral symptoms, along with school-related problems. This paper reviews international cross-sectional studies relating to the definition, prevalence, age, and gender differences inherent in cyberbullying. Psychosocial and risk factors associated with cyberbullying are also addressed. Prevention and intervention strategies for school officials and parents are suggested. Healthcare providers, policy makers, and families must be ever-mindful of the grave dangers cyberbullying poses to youths. Longitudinal studies are warranted to assess the psychological risk factors of cyberbullying.
在过去十年中，基于电子和计算机的通信及信息共享的迅速发展极大地改变了社会互动，尤其是青少年之间的互动。网络欺凌已成为一种新的欺凌和骚扰形式，并且已表明它具有与传统校园欺凌不同的后果。这个问题在世界各国都已出现。网络受害者报告了各种情绪和行为症状，以及与学校相关的问题。本文回顾了与网络欺凌的定义、普遍性、年龄和性别差异相关的国际横断面研究。还讨论了与网络欺凌相关的心理社会因素和风险因素。为学校官员和家长提出了预防和干预策略。医疗保健提供者、政策制定者和家庭必须时刻牢记网络欺凌对青少年构成的严重危险。有必要进行纵向研究以评估网络欺凌的心理风险因素。
