Factors influencing university female students' response to cyberbullying and effects on academic performanceMataga, Vimbayi Theresa 29 March 2023 (has links) (PDF)
Cyberbullying is a form of bullying that is rapidly on the increase. Cyberbullying continues to affect students today. Although studies on cyberbullying and school pupils have been done, a few studies mainly focus on how it affects the category of female students as well as their academic achievements. In previous studies, there have been limited theory to support and explain the severity of this phenomenon towards the female gender as several studies record a higher number in female victims than male victims. Therefore, this research further investigates the aspects of cyberbullying and female victimization. This study focuses on cyberbullying in a South African university. This research also highlights some factors that lead to female victimization. With the use of literature on cyberbullying and victimization, the researcher formulated a model to guide this research. This model was formulated on the assumption that a cyber-victim's academic performance may be determined by how they would have been greatly affected by being bullied. However, the extent to which a victim is affected by cyberbullying was determined by three factors, that is their age, gender and self-control. The factors mentioned were identified through a literature review. The proposed model was tested using a survey involving 262 female university students from the University of Cape Town in South Africa. The collected data was captured on excel and analyzed through the use of Statistica. The findings also revealed that the learners were frequent users of social media and digital devices which could have been the leading cause of them being vulnerable to cyberbullying. Analysis also showed that self-control had a significant influence on how affected learners responded to cyberbullying, whilst age had no significant influence on how learners responded to being bullied. How individuals responded to being bullied had an influence on their academic performance as those who responded negatively to cyberbullying produced poor academic results as compared to those who were not negatively affected. Given that, learning institute authorities can use knowledge obtained in this study to intervene where possible.

Det arbete som börjar med ett avslut : En litteraturstudie om kvinnors utmaningar och strategier efter en våldsam relation / The Work that Begins with an Ending : A literature review about women's challenges and strategies after an abusive relationshipGrönberg, Ida, Wendt, Eva-Lotta January 2023 (has links)
The World Health Organization states that violence against women in intimate relationships is a serious threat to women's health. There is a substantial amount of research regarding the consequences of domestic violence. However, less is known about the emotional challenges that women face as a result of the violence and the strategies used to cope with distressing feelings. This scoping review aimed to explore and unfold common emotional challenges women may encounter after the end of a violent relationship as well as the strategies that they might use to cope with their feelings. Painful emotions such as anger, desire for revenge, shame and guilt were found to challenge women emotionally. Many women were also prone to create a wall of protection in relation to others. The challenge to trust men and the need for constant control made it difficult to nurture existing relationships. In addition, women used strategies such as positive thinking, support from peers and professionals, deeper understanding and refocusing to manage these distressing feelings. A problematization of the concept of recovery appeared because of its implication that there is an end date to when the women should have "recovered" from the violence. This false image created an additional feeling of guilt and shame for the women because of the sense of failure if they needed help again later in life. A greater understanding of what can promote as well as hinder the journey towards well-being among battered women is seen as substantial for professionals in order to meet their needs in recovery.
