“…For example, in France, we see that 14% of primary school students reported being victims of cyberbullying, while only 5% of secondary school students reported the same (Catherine and Michael, 2016). Other studies show that cyberbullying victimization decreases in prevalence as children grow older (Ševčíková and Šmahel, 2009;Wang et al, 2019). This variability may be explained by cultural differences and the level of access to technologies that students in different countries have.…”

BackgroundSchool violence and bullying are prevalent problems that affect health in general, especially through the development of emotional and behavioral problems, and can result in the deterioration of the academic performance of the student victim. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence rates of aggressive behaviors according to types of school violence and bullying, sociodemographic characteristics, and variation by department, region, and time in the period between 2014 and 2018 in Peru.MethodsThe design was observational and cross-sectional based on data from the Specialized System for Reporting Cases of School Violence (Sistema Especializado en Reporte de Casos sobre Violencia Escolar—SíseVe) in Peru, which covers a population of 23,641 students at the initial, primary, and secondary levels of Basic Regular Education [Educación Básica Regular (EBR)], for the 2014–2018 period. The prevalence rates of the different types of school violence and bullying, the sociodemographic characteristics, and the variation by department, region, and time in the period between 2014 and 2018 were estimated.ResultsPsychological violence/bullying occurred at higher prevalence rates (185.8 and 62.6 per 100,000 residents). Women from public institutions reported greater sexual violence, mostly by teachers (67.8%) than by other students (32.2%). The Selva region had the highest prevalence rate of sexual violence (10.1 per 100,000 residents). The departments of Tacna and Piura had the highest and lowest rates of psychological/verbal violence and bullying in 2018 (95.79 and 25.31 per 100,000 residents).ConclusionPsychological/verbal violence and bullying is highly prevalent among students; women report being victims of sexual violence by administrative personnel of public institutions. The Selva region had the highest rate of sexual violence, and Piura and Tacna had the highest and lowest rates of violence and psychological/verbal bullying. Based on these results, it is suggested to conduct evidence-based prevention programs in Peruvian schools to reduce these social problems.

“…In this way, it is confirmed that the socioeconomic aspects intervene and impact the CB due to the social nature of the phenomenon, thus being the most cited articles and, to a certain extent, most relevant to the scientific and academic community, those that collect contributions associated with the Social Sciences [124]. Among the most productive journals on this research topic, the second position of the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health (IJERPH) is remarkable, with 23 articles published in 2019, which represents 67.65% of the total on this topic, and, furthermore, all are classified in the thematic areas of Environmental Science and Medicine [125,126].…”

Nowadays, cyberbullying has become a problem of social harassment in numerous educational centres worldwide. New communication technologies have provided the perfect support for the development of this type of harassment in peer relationships, in addition to being linked to broad social and economic circumstances. In this study, the global trends of the socioeconomic implications of cyberbullying in the educational context have been analysed, from 2004 to 2019. Thus, a bibliometric analysis has been applied to 1128 articles, obtaining results of the evolution of scientific activity in this period. The articles are mainly associated with the thematic areas of Social Sciences, Psychology, Medicine and Computer Science. Seven main thematic axes have been detected, highlighting those related to the psychological aspect, adolescence, and the school environment. Likewise, the link of the main authors, institutions, and countries to these lines of research has been detected. The evidence has shown the interest and relevance of this topic at the international level. Future research lines propose different analyses about how certain socioeconomic factors influence this psychological harassment inside and outside the classroom.

Cyberbullying is a challenge for counselors in the face of the industrial revolution 4.0. Many studies report cyberbullying is the impact of the use of emerging technologies. The rise of cyberbullying affects mental, psychological and social disorders. This paper aims to formulate the prevention of cyberbullying using cinema. Based on the results of the study the prevention of cyberbullying using cinema is a preventive effort through the suppression of empathy. The use of cinema focuses on four aspects, namely intellectual, social, behavior, and emotional. Operationally, cyberbullying prevention using cinema follows the steps of cinema therapy, namely the brief, film selection, and home assignments.
