  • Children, adolescents and adults can experience and interpret cyberbullying in fundamentally different ways due to their developmental cognitive and social capacities.

    “Children, adolescents and adults can experience and interpret cyberbullying in fundamentally different ways due to their developmental cognitive and social capacities60.”

    From Umbrella review of meta-analyses on the risk factors, protective factors, consequences and interventions of cyberbullying victimization (2024) · cites this paper as [60]

    The Introduction and Conclusion (page numbers unavailable) link adolescents’ developmental capacities to their vulnerability to cyberbullying and contrast them with adults. The Brain studies and psychology section discusses children’s social understanding in relation to bullying. The paper does not establish that all three age groups experience and interpret cyberbullying in fundamentally different ways. (LLM, conf=0.84)

  • The disinhibition effect of the online environment and adolescents' lack of awareness of consequences may explain the high prevalence rates found in the direct and ambiguous dimension.

    “Combined with the disinhibition effect of the online environment (Suler, 2004) and the lack of awareness of the consequences of their actions many adolescents demonstrate in online acts of aggression (Barrense-Dias et al., 2020; Cohen-Almagor, 2018), this may explain the high prevalence rates found in this dimension”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
