Cyberbully and Cybervictimization in Schools Erika Figula Ph D

In this book, we present the Cyber Bully Scale (CBS) and Cyber Victim Scale (CVS) developed by our research team for examining cyberbullying. The occurrence of each type of cyberbullying should be assessed on a Likert scale. Scales showing 14-14 types of cyberbully and cybervictimization have excellent psychometric properties (see the appendix to this book) for internal consistency. Using the CBS and CVS scales, a representative sample (882 students, 432 boys and 450 girls; 461 primary school students: 224 boys and 237 girls; 421 high school students: 208 boys and 213 girls) examined the prevalence of cyberbullying in upper primary and high school students.
