Question 2 of 15
2. Question
Most targets of cyberbullying tell an adult (parent or teacher) about their experience.
Correct
According to Bullying Beyond the Schoolyard: Preventing and Responding to Cyberbullying, only about 40% of middle school victims of cyberbullying told their parents and less than 30% told a teacher. The book also points out that these numbers are much improved from just 4 years ago when fewer than 15% of victims told an adult.

Question 4 of 15
4. Question
Victims report that they are primarily cyberbullied by strangers.
Correct
When it comes to cyberbullying, the concept of “stranger danger” is not usually accurate. According to Bullying Beyond the Schoolyard: Preventing and Responding to Cyberbullying, 21.1% of victims said the cyberbully was a friend, 20% said it was an ex-friend, and 26.5% said it was someone else from school. Only 6.5% said the cyberbully was a stranger. Articles published in the Journal of Adolescent Health also found that most youth are victimized by someone that they know, and the conflict that prompts the harassment often originates at school.

Question 5 of 15
5. Question
Boys are more likely to be victims of cyberbullying than girls.
Correct
While there are some differences found in the research, overall it appears that girls are slightly more likely to report being the victim of cyberbullying than boys. More studies have reported either that girls are more likely to be victims or that there are no gender differences in cyberbullying. When looking at lifetime experiences versus more recent experiences, the prevalence rates are even higher for girls. For more information, see the articles below.

Question 6 of 15

Question 7 of 15
7. Question
Research has shown that utilizing blocking and filtering software decreases the likelihood of experiencing cyberbullying.
Correct
According to an article published in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, using filtering software is not significantly related to a decreased chance of Internet harassment victimization. Some adults believe that by simply purchasing and installing such software, they have “done their part” in safeguarding their child’s participation online. This is naïve and unwise. It is really important to actively participate in your child’s online experiences, establish rules, and informally monitor their activities. Software solutions only go so far in controlling certain actions in cyberspace, and can be circumvented by a motivated adolescent.

Question 8 of 15
8. Question
More students experience cyberbullying today that bullying at school.
Correct
Conventional wisdom would have us believe that since technology has proliferated over the last decade and stories of cyberbullying are frequently mentioned in the news, it is likely more prevalent than traditional, schoolyard bullying. However, research demonstrates that this is not the case (at least not yet). Most studies that have collected data on both behaviors show that bullying still happens more frequently at school than online.

Question 9 of 15
9. Question
Most who cyberbully others are outcasts or just mean kids.
Correct
Most cyberbullying is done by regular kids who are getting revenge for some real or perceived threat or injury, or by those who think they are just joking around. According to Englander (2008): ‘‘Cyberbullies themselves identify their own anger and desire for revenge as the major immediate motive for engaging in cyberbullying. A second motive is identified by students who report that they engage in cyberbullying ‘as a joke.’” They aren’t just “mean kids” or those who are marginalized.

Question 12 of 15
12. Question
Cyberbullying rates have been increasing dramatically over the last five years in the United States.
Correct
There are three studies that we are aware of that have explored cyberbullying experiences over time. One was conducted by Lisa Jones and her colleagues at the University of New Hampshire. Examining the three waves of the Youth Internet Safety Survey (2000, 2005, 2010), they find a slight increase in cyberbullying behaviors over that time period (from 6% to 9% to 11%). But these rates don’t cover the most recent five year. The second data source (the School Crime Supplement to the National Crime Victimization Survey) also showed a slight increase from 2009 to 2011 (6.2% to 9%), but then a decrease from 2011 to 2013 (9% to 6.7%). Finally the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance, conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, asked about cyberbullying in 2011 and 2013 and found rates decreased from 16.2% to 14.8%.

Question 13 of 15
13. Question
Those who have been cyberbullied tend to have lower self-esteem than someone who has not been cyberbullied.
Correct
A 2010 article published in the Journal of School Health found “A moderate and statistically significant relationship exists between low self-esteem and experiences with cyberbullying.”

Question 14 of 15
14. Question
Educators do not have the authority to discipline students for cyberbullying that does not occur at school.
Correct
While this can be a challenging issue, a number of federal district court cases have attempted to clarify the conditions under which school officials can discipline students for off-campus behavior. For example, in J.S. v. Bethlehem Area School District (2000), the court made it clear that schools do have the authority to discipline students when speech articulated or behavior committed off‐campus results in a clear disruption of the school environment. If any off-campus behavior results in a substantial disruption at school, they can intervene.
Moreover, if students are denied the opportunity to learn in a safe environment (because of cyberbullying), school officials who fail to act may also be found liable under the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and/or Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972.

Question 15 of 15

Cyberbullying is just a problem in the United States.
Correct
There have been a number of recent studies which have demonstrated that cyberbullying is also a problem in a number of other countries (Australia, Canada, Greece, Sweden, Turkey). Below are some examples of recent journal articles that address cyberbullying in other countries. In addition, several other studies are underway exploring cyberbullying across the world.

Cyber bullying is a form of threatening, harassing, humiliating, insulting, targeting or embarrassing kids, preteens or teens, by another person. Rude humor, embarrassing posts, threatening texts, etc. can lead to cyber bullying. The best one can do to stay away from this is to either stop making any sort of contact with that person or just telling an adult about the matter. Digital footprints are a major cause of cyber bullying as anyone can track your online activity, without your knowledge. Searching oneself on an Search Engine can help as you can view the posts about yourself.Hiding personal information can also prevent any such things from happening.

Cyberbullying is the act of harming or harassing via information technology networks in a repeated and deliberate manner. According to U.S. Legal Definitions, "cyber-bullying could be limited to posting rumors or gossips about a person in the internet bringing about hatred in other’s minds; or it may go to the extent of personally identifying victims and publishing materials severely defaming and humiliating them." With the increased use of communication technology, cyber bullying has become increasingly common, especially among teenagers. Awareness has also risen, due in part to high-profile cases like the suicide of Tyler Clementi.
I learned that there are many different ways to stop cyberbullying and how to handle a cyberbully.
cyberbullying is harming someone on the web. It is usually someone that is scared to say it to your face so they do it over the web.
I feel as if every post online should be filtered and monitored to prevent any/every one from being bullied
Cyber bullying is when you harass someone via internet. It can be through social media or private messaging. Some people even go as far as to hack other peoples accounts and post and or say something that the other person wouldn't dare let come out of their mouth or use that persons account to spread rumors and get them in trouble. Cyber bullying is most common among teenagers and the cyber bullying rate has risen greatly.
cyberbullying makes teens feel many different things and make them not like themselves. suicidal thoughts will occur, eating disorders will happen, depression will grow, self-harm will begin, and sometimes suicide actually happens. we need to watch who we follow on social media, pay attention to what social medias we use, and choose our friends wisely.
-k.e.
cyberbullying can really hurt someone mentally and physically. we all need to come to together to stop cyberbullying.
Cyber bullying is a form of harrasing someone over the internet, without having ti say the words to their face. Cyber bullying is a major contributor to depression and lowering self-esteem in many teens. By watching what we say or post on social media we can prevent ourself from being involved in cyber bullying.
Cyberbullying is not ok for anyone to do, it hurts people and lets them down. Cyberbullying needs to stop because it makes kids or even adults feels so low about themselves like they don't mean anything to anyone.

Cyber bullying is a terrible form of harassment, insults, humiliation, and torment towards other people. It happens over the internet, where nobody can see their face, and most of the time able to get away with it. Stop cyber bullying. It has taken too many lives.
I have been Cyber-stalked for over eight years and don't know where to turn

The cyberbullying is not good because it causes serious harm to peoples's lives. It is not something that should be practiced.

I've learned that most cyber bullies are just real life bullies that you probably know that like to harass people.
