2 Topic Selection 1. The Psychology of Online Trolling and Harassment a. Learn about the "Dark Triad in of online trolling (Psychopathy, Machiavellianism, Narcissism, Sadism) b. Psychological impacts c. Motivation behind trolling 1. What do I already know about the psychology of online trolling? Numerous terms have been used to describe various facets of the trolling phenomena, including flaming, cyberbullying, trolling, harassment, and crap-posting.
