Cyberbullying Versus Face-to-Face Bullying: A Theoretical and Conceptual Review
Open accessAbstract
Cyberbullying has been described as a type of electronic bullying and has recently been subjected to intense media scrutiny largely due to a number of high profile and tragic cases of teen suicide. Despite the media attention relatively little is known about the nature of cyberbullying. This is, at least in part, due to a lack of theoretical and conceptual clarity and an examination of the similarities and differences between cyberbullying and face-to-face bullying. This paper reviews the limited theoretical and empirical literature addressing both cyberbullying and face-to-face bullying, using some specific examples from a qualitative study for illustration. We compare and contrast individual factors common to cyber and face-to-face bullying. We then examine social information processing factors associated with face-to-face bullying and present a discussion of the similarities and differences that may characterize cyberbullying.

“Consistent with previous studies, this meta-ethnography indicates that the unique features of cyber technology increase the severity of cyberbullying and may instill feelings of powerlessness and lack of control in victims (Dooley et al., 2009;Dredge, Gleeson, & de la Piedad Garcia, 2014;Langos, 2012;Nixon, 2014;Sticca & Perren, 2013;Tokunaga, 2010).”

“This notion has been proposed in previous studies, however, there is no consensus on the factors that contribute to power relations in cyberbullying (Cassidy et al., 2013;Dooley et al., 2009;Dredge, Gleeson, & Garcia, 2014;Hemphill et al., 2012;Kowalski et al., 2014;Langos, 2012;Menesini et al., 2012;Thomas et al., 2015;Vaillancourt, Faris, & Mishna, 2017).”

In the citing paper
“Power in the physical world is delineated by the physical, psychological, and social characteristics of perpetrators and victims but consistent with previous studies, findings suggest that in the cyber world the potential for anonymity, including the ability to assume a new persona, means that these characteristics are less relevant (Dooley et al., 2009;Langos, 2012;Thomas et al., 2015;Tokunaga, 2”

“Repetition is a well-established criterion for traditional bullying, however, debate regarding its nature and importance in characterizing cyberbullying is ongoing (Dooley et al., 2009;Langos, 2012;Olweus, 1997;Tokunaga, 2010).”

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.
