“…According to previous studies, the most common response to CB is anger (Camodeca et al 2002;Ortega et al 2012). Anger rumination which is defined as a tendency to recall and ruminate about past experiences of anger (Sukhodolsky et al 2001) has been directly associated with aggression (Bushman et al 2005;Maxwell 2004).…”

Studies investigating the similarities and differences in traditional bullying and cyberbullying experiences have demonstrated considerable gender differences concerning its determinants. The aim of the present study was to provide further evidence for the differential role of determinants for males and females by investigating the moderating role of traditional bullying and anger rumination in the relationship of past cyberbullying victimization and recent cyberbullying perpetration in respect to gender. A total of 1500 Hungarian adolescents and adults (57.9% male, M age = 28.9 years, SD = 8.7) completed an online survey on bullying experiences. Results indicated that males were more likely than females to engage in cyberbullying when they had been previously bullied online. Furthermore, high anger rumination elevated the risk of perpetration among male cyberbullying victims, while repeated victimization in traditional bullying increased the risk of cyberbullying perpetration among females. These results underline the importance of considering gender differences in intervention efforts against bullying.

“…Victims are at increased risk for developing a range of mental health problems [13] including depression and anxiety [14,15], psychotic experiences [16,17] and an increased risk of self-harm and attempting or completing suicide [18,19]. They are also more often alone [20] and rejected at school [21]. However, there are two distinct groups of victims of bullying: those who get victimized and do not bully others (pure victims) and those who get victimized but also bully others (bully/victims) [5].…”

It has been suggested that those who both bully and are victims of bullying (bully/victims) are at the highest risk for adverse mental health outcomes. However, unknown is whether most bully/victims were bullies or victims first and whether being a bully/victim is more detrimental to mental health than being a victim. 4101 children were prospectively studied from birth and structured interviews and questionnaires were used to assess bullying involvement at 10 years (elementary school) and 13 years of age (secondary school). Mental health (anxiety, depression, psychotic experiences) was assessed at 18 years. Most bully/victims at age 13 (n = 233) had already been victims at primary school (pure victims: n = 97, 41.6% or bully/victims: n = 47; 20.2%). Very few of the bully/victims at 13 years had been pure bullies previously (n = 7, 3%). After adjusting for a wide range of confounders, both bully/victims and pure victims, whether stable or not from primary to secondary school, were at increased risk of mental health problems at 18 years of age. In conclusion, children who are bully/victims at secondary school were most likely to have been already bully/victims or victims at primary school. Children who are involved in bullying behaviour as either bully/victims or victims at either primary or secondary school are at increased risk for mental health problems in late adolescence regardless of the stability of victimisation.Clinicians should consider any victimisation as a risk factor for mental health problems.

“…Nesse mesmo estudo, 20-30% dos adolescentes não se importaram com os incidentes, e 5,9% foram considerados vítimas fortemente afetadas porque apresentaram várias emoções negativas ao mesmo tempo, como raiva, estresse, preocupação, medo e, principalmente, "se sentiam deprimidos" 22 . 23 .…”

ResumoConsidera-se cyberbullying quando um ou mais indivíduos utilizam os meios eletrônicos com a intenção de agredir, infligir injúria ou desconforto, humilhar, causar medo ou sensação de desespero no indivíduo que é alvo das agressões. Essas ações podem ser feitas via e-mail, salas de bate-papo, telefones celulares, mensagens instantâneas, cabines de votação online. As evidências indicam que 20-40% dos adolescentes terão pelo menos uma experiência com cyberbullying e que o número de cybervítimas está aumentando. O principal dano causado pelo cyberbullying é o de prejudicar a reputação da vítima, com repercussões que podem ser ainda maiores do que aquelas observadas no bullying tradicional. A vitimização relacionada ao cyberbullying está associada a problemas sociais e de comportamento, incluindo sintomatologia depressiva, abuso de substâncias psicoativas, tentativas de suicídio e suicídio, constituindo-se assim em problemas significativos para a saúde mental dos adolescentes.Palavras-chave: Internet, adolescente, violência, saúde mental. AbstractCyberbullying has been described as one or more individuals using electronic means with the intent to harm, inflict injury or discomfort, cause fear or a feeling of despair in the individual who is the target of aggression. These actions may be done by e-mail, chat rooms, cell phones, instant messaging, online polling booths. Evidence indicates that 20-40% of adolescents will have at least one cyberbullying experience and the number of cybervictims is increasing. The main problem caused by cyberbullying is damage to the victim's reputation, with repercussions that may be even greater than those observed in traditional bullying. Victimization related to cyberbullying is associated with social and behavioral problems, including depressive symptoms, psychoactive substance abuse, suicide attempts, and suicide, and can be considered a significant mental health problem among adolescents.Keywords: Internet, adolescent, violence, mental health. IntroduçãoO acesso aos meios de comunicação eletrônica, como a Internet e o uso de mensagens de texto, influenciou a interação social entre os adolescentes na última década. Um em cada três adolescentes prefere a comunicação eletrônica à comunicação face a face para falar sobre tópicos como amor, sexo e outros assuntos sobre os quais eles sentem vergonha de falar 1 . Porque a comunicação online é tão atraente para os adolescentes? Uma explicação plausível, apoiada em vários estudos, considera que a comunicação online aumenta a sensação de controle sobre a maneira como os adolescentes querem se apresentar e fazer revelações a respeito de si mesmos. O maior controle dessa situação cria, por sua vez, um senso de segurança nos adolescentes, permitindo que eles se sintam mais livres em suas interações interpessoais online em comparação com situações face a face 2,3 . As características desse tipo de comunicação facilitariam, assim, a superação de ansiedades sociais e, consequentemente, uma maior liberdade de expressão e a formação de novas a...
