Few longitudinal studies have investigated how cyberbullying interacts with traditional bullying among young people, who are increasingly using online environments to seek information, entertainment and to socialise. This study aimed to identify the associations between the relative contribution of cyberbullying victimisation and traditional bullying victimisation on social and emotional antecedents and outcomes among adolescents.
Participants were a cohort of 1,504 adolescents from 16 Australian schools followed from age 13 to 15 years.
Adolescents experiencing social and emotional difficulties were more likely to be cyberbullied and traditionally bullied, than traditionally bullied only. Those targeted in both ways experienced more harm and stayed away from school more often than those traditionally bullied only.
These findings suggest a high coexistence of cyber and traditional bullying behaviours and their antecedents, and higher levels of harm from a combination of these behaviours for adolescents over time. Future research should engage students as co-researchers to enhance school and parent strategies to support adolescents experiencing difficulties, and to reduce the likelihood of both cyber and traditional bullying.
很少有纵向研究调查网络欺凌与传统欺凌在年轻人中是如何相互作用的，而年轻人越来越多地利用网络环境来获取信息、娱乐和社交。本研究旨在确定网络欺凌受害和传统欺凌受害的相对贡献与青少年社会和情感方面的前因及后果之间的关联。
参与者是来自澳大利亚16所学校的1504名青少年队列，从13岁追踪到15岁。
与仅遭受传统欺凌的青少年相比，经历社会和情感困难的青少年更有可能遭受网络欺凌和传统欺凌。同时遭受两种欺凌的青少年比仅遭受传统欺凌的青少年受到的伤害更大，也更频繁地缺课。
这些发现表明网络欺凌和传统欺凌行为及其前因高度共存，而且随着时间推移，这些行为的组合对青少年造成的伤害更大。未来的研究应让学生作为共同研究者参与进来，以加强学校和家长的策略，支持有困难的青少年，并降低网络欺凌和传统欺凌发生的可能性。
