“…Those present with the aforementioned problems may try and cope with these problems by bullying others to feel powerful (Wright, 2016). Furthermore, individuals who become victims of cyberbullying may lose their ethical principles and become hostile due to moral disengagement which is also one of the strong predictors of CBP (Eraslan-Çapan & Bakioğlu, 2020;Balta et al, 2019).…”

Objectives: Previous studies have shown that cyberbullying victimization and perpetration are moderately associated. However, possible underlying factors in this relationship are still unclear. Moreover, less is known regarding the relationship between cyberbullying victimization and problematic social media use. The purpose of the present study was to test the direct and indirect association of cyberbullying victimization with cyberbullying perpetration and problematic social media use via aggression. Methods: A total of 496 adolescents completed a survey comprising psychometric instruments of the aforementioned variables. Results: Structural equation modeling indicated that cyberbullying victimization was directly and indirectly related to cyberbullying perpetration and problematic social media use. Aggression partially explained the aforementioned associations. The model was invariant across male and female adolescents. The findings of the present study suggest that being a cyberbullying victim is related to elevated levels of problematic social media use and cyberbullying perpetration among adolescents. Discussion: Health professionals and clinicians that aim to develop intervention strategies for adolescent problematic and anti-social social media use should focus on alleviating negative feelings arising from being a cyberbullying victim.

“…Cybervictimization was higher among individuals reporting higher Machiavellianism, psychopathy, and sadism. This finding may indicate that engagement in antisocial behaviors online is also associated with higher danger of becoming a victim of these behaviors, which next lead to cyberbullying perpetration (Eraslan-Çapan & Bakioğlu, 2020). Individuals who experienced cybervictimization can become offenders on the Internet due to their revenge motivation (Runions et al, 2017).…”

et al. 2022

Cyberbullying is a form of antisocial online behaviors. Perpetration of intentional and repeated harm inflicted through electronic devices is associated with dark personality traits and may be caused by morally impaired reasoning. In the current study, we investigated the associations between the Dark Tetrad (narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy, sadism), cybervictimization, and cyberbullying. We also examined the intervening role of moral disengagement in the relationship between the Dark Tetrad and cyberbullying. Two hundred fifty-one adults (72.6% women) participated in an on-line study. Correlational analysis indicated that all dark personality traits were associated with higher cyberbullying and cybervictimization (except narcissism as a predictor of cybervictimization). Moral disengagement was positively related to Machiavellianism, sadism and cybervictimization. Controlled for covariance between the Dark Tetrad traits and cybervictimization, sadism and cybervictimization appeared to be associated with cyberbullying. Moreover, moral disengagement did not account for the associations between the Dark Tetrad and cyberbullying.

“…Newspapers published only a small number of news items on prohibition and regulation of smartphone use in teenagers. However, frequent cyberbullying cases and their social impact have led many educational centers to ban mobile devices on their premises [60]. Banning the use of smartphones means acknowledging the existence of a problem, and we should instead offer worthy alternatives.…”

The growth of ICTs has led to a new socialization model and a continuous dynamic flow of communication and information, wherein smartphones have become very popular with teenagers. This paper investigates what teenagers use smartphones for and the related intervention measures published in digital newspapers. A qualitative methodology was used to analyze 362 news items published in 53 Spanish digital newspapers. The results and conclusions indicate that teenagers use smartphones mainly for recreational purposes and sparingly for educational ones. The published intervention measures are primarily aimed at stimulating citizens’ reflections on the subject, in order to improve proper smartphone use by teenagers.
