Perception and Experiences About Cyberbulling in University Students


Abstract


At present we find a high percentage of ICT use by adolescents, mainly in terms of online communication. Threats, ridicule, identity theft and sending material with sexual content are some of the many ways in which cyberbullying manifests itself, with the Internet and mobile phone being the main means used by young people to do so. The objective of this study was to know the perception and experience of a group of university students about cyberbullying, with the participation of 864 students from six Universities in northwestern Spain. A non-experimental quantitative methodology of a survey type was followed, specifically a non-probabilistic, accidental or incidental sampling was used, conditioned by the availability of subjects to participate in the study. The majority of the students consulted indicated that harassment through mobile phones and the Internet has more effect on the victim than "traditional bullying", indicating that they have never suffered harassment or have exercised as stalkers through the Internet and mobile phones; and only a lower percentage of students expressed that they have suffered harassment through mobile phones, but infrequently. The majority of the men consulted who indicated that they suffer harassment through the Internet worry about what others may think about what is happening to them, in the case of the women consulted, most indicated that when they are harassed they feel alone and they It also worries what others may think about what is happening to them. We must educate and sensitize society in general about the issue of harassment and cyberbullying, implementing educational measures for their prevention in schools from the first levels.
