“…Their findings revealed a substantial escalation in the prevalence of violent content [ 61 ]. Consequently, as children’s utilization of electronic media increases, the likelihood of their exposure to objectionable online material, such as violence and pornography, increases proportionally [ 62 ]. Children’s prolonged exposure to violent content negatively affects their social development [ 63 ].…”

In today’s digital world, children are exposed extensively to electronic media, making it an integral part of their daily lives. However, excessive use of electronic media during childhood has been associated with various internalizing problems. Moreover, parent–child conflict and children’s age may be closely associated with children’s problem behaviors. The current study employed a cross-sectional design and conducted a questionnaire survey of 711 parents to examine the association between children’s electronic media use and their internalizing problems. Furthermore, this study probed the mediating role of parent–child conflict within this association and the moderating effect of children’s age. The results of structural equation modeling showed a positive correlation between children’s use of electronic media and their internalizing difficulties. Parent–child conflict served as a mediating factor in this association. Results also showed that the association between parent–child conflict and internalizing problems becomes more pronounced as children grow older. These findings imply that parents should encourage their children to develop healthy habits in using electronic media while fostering positive relationships. Parents should also be mindful of the psychological changes as children age and provide guidance to help them become proficient digital citizens.

“…As a result, in recent years, a large body of empirical knowledge and scholarly work related to cyber-violence has become available to investigate how online practices sustain processes of exclusion, discrimination, and marginalization of specific social groups from the Internet (i.e. Belluati, 2018;Genta, 2017;Navarro, 2016;Hellsten et al, 2021;Hinduja & Patchin, 2017;Macchioni & Santoni, 2022;Menesini, Nocentini & Palladino, 2017;Tirocchi, 2019;Tirocchi, Scocco & Crespi, 2022).…”

Online violence against women and girls, known as cyber-VAWG, is a phenomenon that exacerbates dynamics of discrimination, marginalization, and exclusion of women from society. This is recognized as a form of violence with profound social, cultural, and economic consequences (EIGE, 2017; EU Parliament, 2021; Goulds et al., 2020). Rather than being an isolated phenomenon, cyber-violence is part of the continuum of violence, emphasizing how its various manifestations stem from a common cultural root and are inherently connected to each other. This study, by analyzing various Italian awareness campaigns focused on cyber-violence against women and girls, highlights the essentiality of a media-educational approach that integrates a gender perspective into the creation of media literacy pathways specifically aimed at digital environments. This integration proves fundamental in promoting media-educational strategies that do not just focus on developing skills but also consider the social and cultural context in which digital practices take shape (Cho, 2022; Taddeo & Tirocchi, 2014; Tirocchi, 2013).
