“…Not so in the general mood, the increase in this variable score implied lower perceived in in likelihood of violent behavior. Therefore, the results of the study allow taking into account preventive actions aimed at improving school life, alleviating difficulties in stress management, adaptability, and interpersonal relationships [14,15,17,18,19,20,24], and, above all, to prevent them from being associated with other risky behaviors, such as drug consumption or involvement in antisocial behavior [30,31].…”

“…Therefore, training or education in EI issues should be integrated into bullying and cyberbullying education. Among preventive actions, emotional regulation can be considered a valuable resource [24]; self-oriented personal competencies [27], stimulating socially desirable and prosocial behavior [28,35,39]; peer tutoring [38]; mitigation of ethno–cultural bullying [29]; it is essential to take into account family functioning for the positive [20,30]; the fundamental role of teachers in the prevention of bullying and cyberbullying; as well as the importance of improving security and climate in schools and other settings [31,37]. According with Save the Children [5] it is everyone’s responsibility to eradicate violence.…”

“…For this, it is necessary to prevent racism and xenophobia, and promote intercultural education. Likewise, it is essential to take into account family functioning for the positive development of students in order to minimize violent behavior [20], particularly due to the protective effect of parental control on cyberaggression, impulsivity, and high-risk Internet behaviors [30]. Smith et al [31] pointed out the fundamental role of teachers in the prevention of bullying and cyberbullying, as well as the importance of improving security and climate in schools and other settings.…”

Bullying and cyberbullying are important global issues with negative consequences for physical and mental health in education. The objective of this study was to analyze to what extent some dimensions of emotional intelligence predict certain manifestations of bullying and cyberbullying in adolescents. The total number of subjects recruited in compulsory secondary education schools, was 309 (53.1% female). Their ages ranged from 12 to 16 (M = 14.17, SD = 1.4). The used instruments were the school violence questionnaire and the emotional coefficient inventory; the study design was cross-sectional. Results showed that the score increases on some scales (adaptability, stress management, and interpersonal) involved a greater risk of increasing the likelihood of social perception the different manifestations of school violence. However, in the general mood, the increase in this variable score implied lower perceiving in likelihood of violent behavior. It is important to take into account preventive actions aimed at improving school life and, above all, to alleviate difficulties in managing stress, adaptability, and interpersonal relationships.

“…Más allá de los estudios descriptivos, son necesarias investigaciones que avancen información sobre factores causales o al menos correlacionales. Hasta el momento las investigaciones han centrado su atención en los factores personales y los referidos al contexto escolar y la calidad de la convivencia, recibiendo menor atención el contexto familiar y sus factores diferenciales (Álvarez-García et al, 2019). Algunos trabajos en este campo señalan el importante papel de la comunicación intrafamiliar y, particularmente, apuntan a la revelación filial como uno de los elementos diferenciales de la calidad de la convivencia familiar.…”

Research into risky online behaviour among children and adolescents is on the rise, with more studies being conducted into the factors which can influence this phenomenon, above all in relation to school and family life. In the latter sphere, one relevant factor is the degree of genuine trust children have in their parents when using the Internet. The main objective of this study is to verify the effects of child disclosure about cyberaggression, in addition to the mediating role of problematic Internet use and cybergossip, and the moderating role of gender and age. A total of 866 primary school children (53% girls) between 10 and 13 years old (M=11.21; SD=0.90) were surveyed using self-reporting. The data processing followed a moderated serial mediation model using “Process”. The results revealed the effects of child disclosure about cyberaggression and the mediation of problematic Internet use and cybergossip. Unlike gender, age moderated the effects of the mediation model. The results highlight the need to foster a climate of trust and communication in the family environment to reduce involvement in risky online behaviour, in which children feel understood and supported by their parents, which in turn encourages open communication about Internet use. La investigación sobre ciberconductas de riesgo infantil y juvenil se abre paso con estudios sobre factores que puedan influir en estos fenómenos, entre los que se destacan los relacionados con la convivencia escolar y familiar. En esta última, es relevante el nivel de confianza espontánea del hijo hacia su progenitor en el uso Internet. El objetivo de este trabajo es comprobar el efecto de la revelación filial en la ciberagresión, así como el rol mediador del uso problemático de Internet y el cibercotilleo, y el rol moderador del sexo y la edad. Un total de 866 escolares de primaria (53% chicas) de entre 10 y 13 años (M=11,21; D.T.=0,90) fueron encuestados mediante el uso de autoinformes. El tratamiento de datos siguió un modelo de mediación serial moderada a través de «Process». Los resultados evidenciaron los efectos de la revelación filial sobre la ciberagresión, así como la mediación del uso problemático de Internet y el cibercotilleo. A diferencia del sexo, la edad moderó los efectos del modelo de mediación. Los resultados ponen de manifiesto la necesidad de establecer un clima de confianza y comunicación en el entorno familiar para disminuir la implicación en las ciberconductas de riesgo, donde los menores se sientan comprendidos y apoyados por los progenitores, facilitando la comunicación espontánea sobre el uso de Internet.

“…Meanwhile, several studies, including systematic reviews of comorbidity studies [(e.g., (2)(3)(4)], have shown a strong link between ADHD and Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD), suggesting that online gaming and other online activities may actually be a causal or contributing factor to developing ADHD. Similarly, a meta-analytic study showed that digital therapies for children and young people's mental health were promising (5), but also fueled anxieties in parents who could not reconcile encouraging their children to use the internet and games for treatment when they were constantly pressing them to reduce screen use, due to concern about the negative impact of digital media on children's emotional and social wellbeing (6,7).…”

From Digital Mental Health Interventions to Digital “Addiction”: Where the Two Fields Converge

Scientific literature from the last two decades indicates that, when it comes to mental health, technology is presented either as panacea or anathema. This is partly because researchers, too frequently, have planted themselves either in the field of digital mental health interventions (variably called "telepsychiatry", "digital therapeutics", "computerized therapy", etc.), or in that of the problems arising from technology, with little crossfertilization between the two. Yet, a closer look at the two fields reveals unifying themes that underpin both the advantages and dangers of technology in mental health. This article discusses five such themes. First, the breakneck pace of technology evolution keeps digital mental health interventions updated and creates more potentially problematic activities, leaving researchers perennially behind, so new technologies become outdated by the time they are studied. Second, the freedom of creating and using technologies in a regulatory vacuum has led to proliferation and choice, but also to a Wild-West online environment. Third, technology is an open window to access information, but also to compromise privacy, with serious implications for online psychology and digital mental health interventions. Fourth, weak bonds characterize online interactions, including those between therapists and patients, contributing to high attrition from digital interventions. Finally, economic analyses of technology-enabled care may show good value for money, but often fail to capture the true costs of technology, a fact that is mirrored in other online activities. The article ends with a call for collaborations between two interrelated fields that have been-till now-mutually insular.
