From the beginning of 2000, with the increase and diffusion of
modern technologies, a new form of bullying using electronic means
has emerged. Literature has reached some consistent findings on the
description of the problem. However, there is still a lack of
knowledge about developmental processes of cyberbullying and about
possible predictors and correlates. Some of the main emerging areas
investigated in connection with cyberbullying are: personality
factors, callous unemotional traits and self-control, memory
cognitive distortions, emotional and moral mechanisms, ICT use and
media exposure, family and social contexts. Another important issue
is the relation between cyberbullying and face to face bullying.
From face to face literature we know some of the mechanisms in the
peer group such as the relation between bullying, dominance and
popularity and the role of bystanders in the social dynamic of the
attacks. However, nothing is known about the cyber community.
Contributors to this volume attempt to investigate these group
mechanisms in the cyber community. Finally, for the victims,
long-term consequences are also relevant, both in terms of
perceived stress level and of the association between
cyber-victimization and mental health. This special issue offers
important new findings on the development and consequences of
cyberbullying and cyber-victimization, and opens new and future
directions of research.
