L'autore e l'autrice di episodi di cyberbullismo : il punto di vista in adolescenza

The spread of cyberbullying and the importance of involving students in reflecting on possible solutions to the problem have led to the implementation of an action-re- search project aimed at understanding adolescents ' perspectives on the identity of the cyberbullying perpetrator. To this end, 601 secondary school students responded to a questionnaire designed to identify the interests, friendships, behaviours, speech patterns, fears, and amusements of the male and female cyberbully. The collected data allowed for the identification of a shared representation and reflection on their differ- ences. Theoretical implications and practical applications are discussed.
