Abstract

The emergence of the metaverse, a virtual reality space, has ushered in a new era of digital experiences and interactions in global information systems. With its unique social norms and behaviors, this new world presents exciting opportunities for users to connect, socialize, and explore. However, as people spend more time in the metaverse, it has become increasingly apparent that the issue of cyberbullying needs to be addressed. Cyberbullying is a serious problem that can harm victims psychologically and physically. It involves using technology to harass, intimidate, or humiliate individuals or groups in global information systems. The risk of cyberbullying is high in the metaverse, where users are often anonymous. Therefore, it is crucial to establish a safer and more respectful culture within the metaverse to detect and prevent such incidents from happening.

CYBERBULLING AND REAL REALITY
Gilberto Marzano, velta lubkina

SOCIETY, INTEGRATION, EDUCATION. Proceedings of the International Scientific Conference, 2015

There are various risks tied to cyberspace. Some of them are social risks because they are cultural risks, being related to new forms of relationships and interactions among people. In the last decade, toxic evils like cyberbullying and other malicious cyber violence are growing, and the search of antidotes is becoming a common concern for governments, educational authorities, teachers, parents and children alike. The available data shows clear evidence that the number of persons affected by cyber violence is increasing (Shariff e Churchill, 2009; U.S. Department of Education, 2011;: a Google search of the word "cyberbullying" finds more the 11 million of items. Despite the popularity of the word, there is a limited knowledge of this issue and many of the first conceptual formulations about it continue to be spread in literature, such as that the characteristics of bullies who act face-to-face and those who do so in cyberspace are very different. The paper analyzes the classic model of cyberbullying behavior, as described in literature, introducing a new element to be considered. It is that, especially for young people, Web and physical world are more and more becoming a whole: virtual-web and real reality are a continuum that we could define as an e-real-reality. Analyzing two of the most known cases of cyberbullying and considering some other evidences emerged by recent researches, we are theoretically convinced that a better understanding of this element could lead to the development of more effective strategies for combating cyberbullying.

CYBERBULLYING HURTS: THE RISING THREAT TO YOUTH IN THE DIGITAL AGE
Serdar Tunçer, NİLÜFER SEZER

Digital Seige, 2021

Cyberbullying refers to the behaviour of inflicting harm upon a certain individual or group by using information or communication technologies. Although it originally became a topic of discussion in Europe and North America, it has now become a worldwide issue. Bullying is not a new phenomenon but 'conventional bullying' is now being replaced by cyberbullying. With the increasing use of the Internet, mobile devices and particularly the spread of social media, the number of individuals vulnerable to cyberbullying is on the rise. In this context, angry or offensive messages, those mocking, teasing, intimidating, acquiring private information by means of fake accounts or attempts to spread such information may all be considered as examples of cyberbullying. While conventional bullying may occur at a certain place or time, cyberbullying emerges anytime and anywhere people may have access to the Internet. Additionally, factors such as cyberbullying's capacity to spread more quickly and simultaneously to a larger number of people, its long-lasting effects and the perpetrator's perception of concealing his/her identity enhance the need for multidimensional scholarly studies on this subject.

Analysis of Strategies to Prevent Cyberbullying and Harassment in Online Media Platforms
Sam'un S M Mukramin

Institute of Computer Science (IOCS), 2024

Cyberbullying and harassment in online media platforms pose significant challenges, necessitating effective prevention strategies. This research comprehensively analyzes various prevention strategies, including technological, educational, community-based, policy, and collaborative interventions. Findings underscore the importance of a multifaceted approach, combining technological solutions with educational initiatives, community engagement, policy frameworks, and multi-stakeholder collaboration. While successful interventions empower individuals with digital literacy, empathy, and peer support, challenges such as sample biases, self-reporting biases, and ethical considerations must be addressed. By synthesizing insights from existing literature and theoretical frameworks, this research informs theory, practice, and policy in combating cyberbullying and harassment, paving the way for a safer and more respectful digital environment.

Cyberbullying Prevention
Gilberto Marzano

Social Media and the Transformation of Interaction in Society, 2015

The Internet is a really wide, intriguing world, difficult to penetrate in depth, rich with dissimulations, full of useful and also evil things, that are continuously changing. Cyberbullying represents an actual risk, especially for the online generation which is often unable to distinguish between virtual and realreality. The first step for cyberbullying prevention is the knowledge acquisition of what cyberbullying is and how it occurs within a specific context. This is not an easy task, since cyberbullying is a complex and quite new phenomenon, so much that researchers' opinion is often divided on its definition and there isn't agreement on the extent of its diffusion. This article presents and comments some cyberbullying preventing tips, inspired by the "top ten tips" that Hinduja and Patchin suggested to educators engaged in cyberbullying prevention.

Using computer technology to address the problem of cyberbullying
Kamal Rahim

ACM SIGCAS Computers and Society, 2014

The issue of cyberbullying is a social concern that has arisen due to the prevalent use of computer technology today. In this paper, we present a multi-faceted solution to mitigate the effects of cyberbullying, one that uses computer technology in order to combat the problem. We propose to provide assistance for various groups affected by cyberbullying (the bullied and the bully, both). Our solution was developed through a series of group projects and includes i) technology to detect the occurrence of cyberbullying ii) technology to enable reporting of cyberbullying iii) proposals to integrate third-party assistance when cyberbullying is detected iv) facilities for those with authority to manage online social networks or to take actions against detected bullies. In all, we demonstrate how this important social problem which arises due to computer technology can also leverage computer technology in order to take steps to better cope with the undesirable effects that have arisen.

Cyberbullying: tackling the silent enemy
Liliana Cuesta Medina

International Journal of Inclusive Education, 2018

Access to online information and communication and the use of social networks have all increased considerably among preadolescents over the last decade. These trends are directly related to the similarly growing phenomenon of cyberbullying: as preadolescents' exposure to online social interaction increases, so does their potential involvement in harmful online interactions. Thus, there is a need to design and implement cyberbullying prevention programmes that prepare pre-adolescents for both the risks and opportunities of a technology-driven world. This qualitative study analyzed the effects of a cyberbullying prevention programme supported by the use of technologies for the safe use of social media in pre-adolescents. Data were collected from 151 participants (aged 9-11), at five schools in Bogotá, Colombia. Results indicate that pre-adolescents increased their understanding about cyberbullying as they came to appreciate how building confidence and self-efficacy could prepare them to better face cyberbullying threats. Thus, the study advocates for the early teaching of self-regulatory skills to help youngsters develop conflict resolution skills and ease their gradual empowerment to face cyberbullying. The study suggests specific considerations that will help communities to shape future prevention plans and policies, supporting the development of more inclusive school learning environments framed upon collaboration, equity, and social justice principles.

Cyberbullying in the Digital Age: Development of E-Safety Strategies
Catherine McLoughlin

While the ubiquitous access to the Internet continues to expand, the demands of the Net generation for constant connectivity and cyber-fun, there is increasing evidence of the disruptive effects of technology. The problem of cyberbullying in schools has become very widely recognised as a significant and serious one. In most developed countries, the increased prevalence of cyberbullying is reported in the UK, USA, Australia, Japan and Korea. The serious and sometimes long-term physical and psychological damage to students has remained a major focus for research across the globe in the past decade. The development of social networking technologies and virtual worlds has brought about new challenges for school communities and has placed considerable pressures on educators to remain informed and vigilant to the developing phenomenon of cyberbullying. This paper addresses the impact of cyberbullying on students, and outlines strategies being adopted by schools and policy makers to combat this growing negative behavior.

Social risks of cyberspace. Report 1 : Cyberbullying
Gilberto Marzano, velta lubkina

There are various social risks tied to cyberspace. Many of them are social risks because they are cultural risks, like virtual identity construction and interaction in social networks. Toxic evils like cyberbullying and other malicious cybercrimes can give the impression that technological advances are bad and that children and youth would be better off if they did not have access to the Internet, cellular phones, etc. This is not the correct way to tackle the problem of cyberspace risks, which is an issue very insidious and increasing. Indeed, technology can be a very good thing: Internet provides useful information and represent a free window towards the world. Not only it opens up sources of knowledge to people (adolescents in particular) that might otherwise were too difficult to access, but technology also affords around easy means of establishing and maintaining social contacts. For many persons -see the field of assistive technologies -new technologies may offer powerful solutions and contribute in saving costs and creating new professions and services , as well as alternative and effective forms of citizens' participation. The Internet and related technologies have a positive impact on our life: the problem is how some people maliciously use them. Although, investigating and diffusing knowledge about their abuse can mitigate the negative effects. Considering its continuous growing, this report is focused on cyberbullying.

New Horizons for Learning Cyberbullying: Policy for Digital Protection Cyberbullying: Policy for Digital Protection
Ryan Schaaf

Historically, bullying has been an accepted part of adolescence. With key demographic changes in the United States and the evolution of information and communication technologies, more children are falling prey to a new form of bullying. School leaders, policymakers, and politicians are creating laws such as Maryland's Grace's Law to combat the digital epidemic of cyberbullying. Unfortunately, many teachers and school administrators are left with the burden of implementing cyberbullying laws without trying to distinguish the cause and take action to prevent it. School systems must develop methods for recording cyberbullying incidents to produce accurate data results. Teachers, school leaders, lawmakers, and government officials must fund and implement cyberethics programs in schools to help students develop into responsible, compassionate global digital citizens. Neblett: this list of random names could be a list of family members, friends, or students in any school, in any district, in any part of the world. The individuals on this list of names have one major thing in common: they were teenage victims of cyberbullying and committed suicide because of the psychic trauma caused by relentless torment and ridicule. The threats and implications of cyberbullying jeopardize the safety and well being of today's digital generation.
