“…Participants in the abovementioned studies were adolescents in affluent nations who may have their own electronic devices equipped with Wi-Fi connection, whereas participants in the current research were 12-year olds, most of whom had no cell phones or computers of their own. In addition, the result of this study showing cyberbullying prevalence rate to be a lot lesser than that of traditional bullying was also consistent with findings from existing literature (Gofin & Avitzour, 2012;Lapidot-Lefler & Dolev-Cohen, 2015;Modecki et al, 2014).…”

“…The same was true for Singaporean children in one study (Kwan & Skoric, 2012). Cyberbullying, though becoming controversial recently with a number of youth suicides, was said to be less prevalent than that of traditional or face-to-face bullying (Chen, 2015;Gofin & Avitrzour, 2012;Lapidot-Lefler & Dolev-Cohen, 2015;Modecki, Minchin, Harbaugh, Guerra, & Runions, 2014).…”

This research looked into prevalence rate of bullying victimization and perpetration as well as teachers' response to bullying incidence in the Philippines. A total of 340 sixth graders from five different schools in Western Visayas participated in the study. Slightly more than half (54.1%) of the sample were boys and 45.9% were girls. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze data gathered from the survey. Children's self-reports revealed that prevalence rate for victimization was 40.6% and that for perpetration was 23.8%. Similar to previous literature, results also showed that there were significantly more boys than girls who reported to be victims (χ verbal reprimands, temporary removal from class, withdrawal of privileges, and suspension, which were imposed on individuals involved in bullying as bullies. Although all teachers and school personnel were required to report bullying cases they had knowledge of to the child protection committee in their institution, very few did so. These findings suggest the need for a more effective bullying prevention program and a careful examination of the implementing rules and guidelines of RA 10627, otherwise known as the Anti-Bullying Act of 2013.

“…Specifically, young people may retaliate to: Reduce the negative emotions associated with being a victim of cyber bullying (Varjas et al, 2010) or demonstrate to peers that they are not an easy target to prevent further reprisals (König et al, 2010). The level of similarity in the cyber bullying behaviours that this group of young people receive and make is perhaps unsurprising given that cyber bullying is not constrained by geographical proximity (Kite, Gable, & Filippelli, 2010) and some of the power dynamics associated with face-to-face bullying are neutralised by technology (Lapidot-Lefler & Dolev-Cohen, 2015).…”

“…Although research on traditional bullying shows that bullying is more common among boys, as discussed in Sanchez et al (2016), for cyberbullying, findings are mixed. Several studies report that males are indeed more likely to be cyberbullies than their female counterparts (Li, 2006;Lapidot-Lefler & Dolev-Cohen, 2015); yet, others report no gender differences (Patchin & Hinduja, 2006) and others claim that girls outnumber boys (Keith & Martin, 2005;Kowalski & Limber, 2007). In a study of 2186 middle and high school students, Mishna, Khoury-Kassabri, Gadalla and Daciuk (2012) explored the factors that contribute to engagement with cyberbullying, looking at groups of actors including victims, bullies, bully-victims (both bully and be bullied online) and those not involved.…”

While there is an increasing flow of media stories reporting cases of cyberbullying, particularly within online social media, research efforts in the academic community are scattered over different topics across the social science and computer science academic disciplines. In this work, we explored research pertaining to cyberbullying, conducted across disciplines. We mainly sought to understand scholarly activity on intelligence techniques for the detection of cyberbullying when it occurs. Our findings suggest that the vast majority of academic contributions on cyberbullying focus on understanding the phenomenon, risk factors, and threats, with the prospect of suggesting possible protection strategies. There is less work on intelligence techniques for the detection of cyberbullying when it occurs, whilst currently deployed algorithms seem to detect the problem only up to some degree of success. The article summarizes the current trends aiming to encourage discussion and research with a new scope; we call for more research tackling the problem by leveraging statistical models and computational mechanisms geared to detect, intervene, and prevent cyberbullying. Coupling intelligence techniques with specific web technology problems can help combat this social menace. We argue that a multidisciplinary approach is needed, with expertise from human computer interaction, psychology, computer science, and sociology, for current challenges to be addressed and significant progress to be made.
