This investigation will utilised the primary and secondary resources, while secondary source, such as reliable internet sites with correct information that gave me what I needed to use to answer my questions right.

What are the side effects of cyberbullying?

Cyberbullying is an ever-growing issue that occurs daily. A survey was conducted on 80 random teenagers with the topic of Cyberbullying. The survey consisted of 15.19% of the surveyors being between ages14-16, 45.57% of the surveyed were teenagers between the ages of 16 to 18, 27.85% were between the ages of 18 to 20 and 11.39% of the surveyed were above 20. The survey results showed that 88.75% of people knew someone who has experienced cyberbullying and 58.75% have experienced cyberbullying themselves.

Many believe that the way to decline the, number of kids cyberbullied, is to limit their speech and rights. The Cyberbullying Research Center recorded that in 30 days that 36 girls have been cyberbullied. That is 1 in 4 girls every day. (Document A) Students are not the only targets for cyber bullying, teachers are as well. According to a Teacher Support Network in the UK. It has found that Pupil’s (Students) are the largest amount of perpetrator’s. (Document B) Cyber Bullying can affect people in several different ways. In Document C, K.K a girl who made a
Cyberbullying is a relatively new threat, and it is very similar to traditional bullying. Despite the fact that cyberbullying and traditional bullying both share the common goal of harassment, cyberbullying differs from traditional bullying in that it does not stop at the schoolyard, and can continue when the victim is far away from the aggressor. It is just as devastating as common bullying, and sometimes is even more damaging. Professors Sameer Hinduja and Justin W. Patchin note in their journal, “Cyberbullying Creates Dangerous Stress and Anxiety”, that cyberbullying affects anywhere between 10-40% of students (contingent on their age group) (par. 1). J.D. Kelly A. Albin, in her article “Bullies in a Wired World”, defines cyberbullying as “…the ‘willful and repeated harm inflicted through use of computers, cell phones, and other electronic devices’” (157). It is caused by the fact that children feel their actions are mitigated when they use social media, as it creates the illusion of indirectness, and its effects range anywhere from mild depression to suicide.
One way that cyberbullying is different from the traditional mode of bullying is that it has expanded the scope of bullying. Social media has made it possible for people from far off regions of the world to participate in bullying one victim. This is unlike traditional bullying, which was mostly local. This study will strictly limit itself to effects of cyberbullying in a school setup. It will also look at the remedies available within the setup. One area of particular interest is the legal
The purpose of this study is to analyze the experiences of adolescents in cyber bullying based on the context of gender. The author says that social economic status appears not to be a factor influencing within cyber bullying. Also, Li explains that cyber bullying has been increasing because the information can be preserved and spread quickly throughout technology.
It was given to students between the ages of 12 and 17, to find the extent of cyberbullying in the particular age bracket. Five different forms of bullying was reported, with insults having the highest percentage reported, embarrassing pictures being the lowest, and threats, privacy violation, and password theft in between. Almost 1/5 of the respondents reported repeated experiences, and 72% reported that they had been bullied online during the past year. In 2002, Finn (2004) documented survey results that 10 to 15% of 339 students at University of New Hampshire had experienced multiple e-mail or IM messages that “threatened, insulted or harassed” (pg. 2) them. A survey that was given to 666 students at a university in Turkey in 2009 was used to assess the psychological needs of the cyberbully. The results that were found from this survey were “that aggression and succorance positively predicted cyberbullying, but interception negatively predicted it” (pg. 2). Also, 22.5% of students reported that they had cyberbullied at least once, and 55.3% reported that they had been a victim of cyberbullying at least once in their lifetime (Dilmac, 2009). Technology is becoming more accessible to today’s youth, and more questions are arising because of this. Extended research is needed to focus on the increase of technology and its impact on the events that are rooted from

There are a number of ways in which cyberbullying can impact academic performance and school-related well-being, including: Reduced concentration, school avoidance, increased school absences, isolation, alienation, lower academic achievement, negative perceptions of school climate, not feeling safe at school, higher risk for school problems, and a greater likelihood for carrying weapons to school (Hinduja & Patchin, 2007; 2008; Marczak & Coyne, 2010; Ybarra, Diener-West, & Leaf, 2007).
In this article the author discusses about the harmful actives that the internet dose to the youth. With two main points; cyber bullying and sexting, the author briefly discusses what they are and what threat that occurs from them. The article is useful to me because it shows the harmfulness on what could happen on the internet. However, this article is very vague and lakes a certain amount of information to achieve its point.
This article describes all about cyberbullying. It tells you what cyberbullying is and how you can help stop it. “Cyberbullying” is credible because of the abundance of information that is in the article, and because of all of the references too. This article is similar to the the other two articles that I cited because it talks all about the issue of cyberbullying, and it talks about ways that you can help be a part of the solution. This is different from the other articles because it talks more about what cyberbullying is and a bunch of facts about it, and less about the issue right now. The audience for this article is anyone who is curious about online harassment, or anyone who wants to try to help stop bullying because of issues they have been in or seen in their own life. This is perfect for my essay because it shows a lot of information that I can use to better understand my topic.
Within the notion of cyberbullying, many tend to focus on the victims. Throughout the past ten years, there has been more research conducted regarding victims versus cyberbullies themselves (Slonje, Smith, & Frisén, 2013). This serves as a problem because in order to stop cyberbullying, one must understand why the cyberbully has decided to start cyberbullying, as well as understanding the process of which cyberbullies select their victims. These are two important aspects to research as the information obtained can help one identify the factors of why a person is cyberbullying, as well as understanding a cyberbully's motives. This research is also important as it will provide a better understanding on how to prevent cyberbullying.
Many negative effects are outcomes of cyber bullies. The impact cyber bullying has on kids is detrimental. Victims can develop psychological problems. For example, victims begin having anxiety, lower self-esteem, and frustration. They may also be diagnosed with depression. It’s tough to ignore cyber bullying. Compared to school bullies, internet bullies cause their victim more emotional pain. Children and teenagers are able to escape school bullies when they return home. However targets of cyber bullying don’t have that advantage.
Research on bullying suggests that traditional bullying occurs between males and includes participation in physical acts, while females engage in more relational attacks. However, when it comes to cyberbullying, the gender that engages in this type of bullying more is less known.

Mourning is hard to do especially when a young life has been lost. Many families across Texas and the nation have experienced the loss of their children due to suicide as a result of cyberbullying. As technology has become a part of everyday lives of young people, bullying has made a move to the online world. Making bullying much harder to control and prevent. Traditional bullying is now replaced by social media where millions of people can see and comment on anything that is shared. Cyberbullying can create long-term problems that can negatively impact the life of the teen being bullied as well as the bully.
We use technology in almost every aspect of our daily lives; it is how we stay connected in this fast-paced world. Technology provides many benefits, but it has the potential to destroy many people. With technology use on the rise, bullying has taken a new, more destructive form. Cyberbullying, as defined by the Cyberbullying Research Center, is the willful and repeated harm inflicted through the medium of electronic text (qtd. in Chait).
