Bullying Victimisation

AbstractSocial media can lead to rejection, cyber-bullying victimisation, and cyber-aggression, and these experiences are not fully understood as experienced by autistic adults. To investigate this, 78 autistic adults completed self-report measures of social media use, cyber-bullying victimisation, cyber-aggression, and self-esteem. High levels of social media use were found to be associated with an increased risk of cyber-victimisation; whereas self-esteem was positively correlated with feelings of belonging to an online community and negatively correlated with feelings of being ignored on social network sites and chat rooms. Future studies are needed to further investigate the experience of cyber-bullying victimisation of autistic adults.

Bullying Victimisation

The number of cases of cyber bullying reported in schools had been alarming in these recent years. Increased accessibility of mobile phone and internet among secondary school students have made them more susceptible of becoming cyber bullying victims. These victims consequently will encounter mental health problems such as depression and anger that may lead to psychosomatic disorder and suicidal attempt in severe cases. This study focussed on determining the prevalence of cyber bullying and its associated factors among secondary school students. A cross sectional study was conducted among 482 of Form 2 and Form 4 school students in Kuala Terengganu. Data were collected using self-administered questionnaires. Data were analysed by using SPSS version 22. The descriptive statistics was applied to obtain frequency and percentage for categorical data. Simple logistic regression and Pearson Chi-square were used to determine the association between the independent variables and cyber bullying victimisation. The prevalence of cyber bullying victims in this study was 2.1% and total of 8.1% reported had been cyber bullied for lifetime. Four factors were found to be significantly associated with being a victim of cyber bullying; age (p = 0.010), type of school (p = 0.036), gender (p = 0.011) and perception towards family relationship (p = 0.006). In conclusion, the prevalence of cyber bullying victimisation in Kuala Terengganu is low in comparison to worldwide data. Although the prevalence is low, cyber-victimisation is progressing in numbers by year and there is a need to plan for proper intervention programs to enhance awareness among secondary school students to curb this issue.

Snowball Sampling Technique

This research study is focused on cyber-bullying victimisation, as well as the hope of the victimized graduates to live their lives fearlessly. For this purpose, university victimised graduates were interviewed using the snowball sampling technique. The results of the study are alarming in terms of their nature and intensity –the victimized graduates were blackmailed and thinking of suicide, they were socially stigmatized, they sacrificed their lives and some surrendered or compromised with what the bully said to do. They isolated themselves and alike. The study suggested that students should avoid sharing their personal information via social networking sites with those people who are not known to them. The study also suggested that parents should keep an eye on social media accounts as well as ICTs’ devices of their children. Also, educational intuitions should organize awareness seminars to make students aware of cyber-bullying and how to escape from being victimized.
