Ao nos aprofundarmos em estudos que narram a história do futebol brasileiro, raramente nos deparamos com alguma pesquisa que envolva a participação das mulheres nesse esporte e, em grande parte das vezes em que esse contexto é abordado, essas mulheres são tratadas como afrontosas a sua natureza. Dessa forma, o estudo objetivou investigar as possíveis expressões do cyberbullying nas relações de gênero entre atletas do sexo feminino pertencentes ao time de futsal da Universidade Estadual Paulista – Júlio de Mesquita Filho da cidade de Rio Claro, que sejam integrantes da rede social facebook®, e os demais integrantes dessa sua rede social. O estudo buscou, ainda, comprovar e discutir a veracidade do bullying relacionado ao preconceito de gênero no âmbito do futebol feminino. Para tanto foram realizadas duas idas a campo (jogos oficiais do time) e uma entrevista, envolvendo 11 atletas. Foram observadas, durante os jogos oficiais, as manifestações das torcidas que assistias aos jogos de futsal realizados por mulheres, e dessa maneira foi possível constatar a presença do bullying, naquele ambiente, que colocavam aquelas atletas em condição de vítima desse fenômeno. As entrevistas foram enviadas as atletas na intenção de verificar se essas mulheres, igualmente, se sentiam vítimas do fenômeno cybebullying, fato que não se confirmou. Os resultados apontam que apesar de o futebol ser um espaço conferido às mulheres, é também um ambiente propício a situações que expõem o preconceito de gênero dentro da nossa sociedade, configurando a essência fenômeno bullying nesse esporte. A pesquisa problematizou sobre um possível convencionalismo existente dentro desse esporte, que atravessa as questões ligadas a esse marcador identitário, além de contribuir para uma maior visibilidade dessa questão. / This present work was intended to address analyze the gender issue with a special focus on issues related to the presence of women in football. By delving into studies that narrate the history of Brazilian football, rarely come across some research that involves the participation of women in this sport, and most of the time in this context is addressed, these women are treated as outrageous their nature . Thus, the study aimed to investigate the possible expressions of cyberbullying in gender relations among female athletes belonging to the Universidade Estadual Paulista futsal team – Julio de Mesquita Filho city of Rio Claro, who are members of the Facebook® social network, and the other members of this social network. The study sought to also demonstrate and discuss the veracity of bullying related to gender bias in the women's game. For this there were two field trips (official matches of the team) and an interview, involving 11 athletes. They were observed during official games, demonstrations of the fans that you watched the indoor soccer games played by women, and thus we determined the presence of bullying, in that environment, that put these athletes on condition of victim of this phenomenon. Interviews were sent athletes in order to verify if these women also felt victims of cybebullying phenomenon, a fact that was not confirmed. The results show that although football is a space given to women, it is also an environment conducive to situations that expose the gender bias within our society, setting the essence bullying phenomenon in this sport. Research problematized about a possible existing conventionality in the sport, going through the issues related to this identity marker, as well as contribute to greater visibility of this issue.

Cyberbullying: Predictors and Prevalence in American and German Middle School Students

January 2017 (has links)
abstract: ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to investigate several factors associated with cyberbullying and its victims; gender, age, and the time spent using various forms of computer-mediated communication (CMC). Because cross-national studies are so important to understanding the similarities and differences found in this global problem, the current study explored the connection between traditional bullying and cyberbullying in middle school students in both the United States (N = 111) and Germany (N = 279). Participants ranged in age from 12 to 15 years and were administered self-report questionnaires during the regular school day. It was predicted that German students would have higher mean rates of CMC use; Americans would have higher mean rates of participation in and being victims of cyberbullying; there would be no mean differences in American and German student outcomes as either victims or perpetrators of traditional bullying. Results indicated that German students did use CMC more often than American students did, but Americans used certain forms of CMC more often, such as texting, IM and email. Contrary to expectations, Germans were more likely to participate in cyber and traditional bullying behavior. Americans did have a greater number of victims compared to perpetrators for both traditional and cyberbullying behavior. Additional results found that the American sample had a pattern of decreasing then increasing behavior as student age increased, across participation in all forms of bullying behavior, and participation rates often depended on the age of the students involved. Future research suggestions might focus on the importance of distinguishing the varying thought processes that define cyberbullying within a culture, specifically within our own culture. Additional research might also address how online communities and their inherent social norms and interactions, may inadvertently contribute to increasing cyberbullying and victimization of others outside of those groups and communities. Finally, due to the constant updating and improvement of social media, a follow- up study utilizing updated online applications would add considerably to the current knowledge base. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation Educational Psychology 2017

Developing a Measure of Cyberbullying Perpetration and Victimization

January 2012 (has links)
abstract: This research addressed concerns regarding the measurement of cyberbullying and aimed to develop a reliable and valid measure of cyberbullying perpetration and victimization. Despite the growing body of literature on cyberbullying, several measurement concerns were identified and addressed in two pilot studies. These concerns included the most appropriate time frame for behavioral recall, use of the term "cyberbullying" in questionnaire instructions, whether to refer to power in instances of cyberbullying, and best practices for designing self-report measures to reflect how young adults understand and communicate about cyberbullying. Mixed methodology was employed in two pilot studies to address these concerns and to determine how to best design a measure which participants could respond to accurately and honestly. Pilot study one consisted of an experimental examination of time frame for recall and use of the term on the outcomes of honesty, accuracy, and social desirability. Pilot study two involved a qualitative examination of several measurement concerns through focus groups held with young adults. Results suggested that one academic year was the most appropriate time frame for behavioral recall, to avoid use of the term "cyberbullying" in questionnaire instructions, to include references to power, and other suggestions for the improving the method in the main study to bolster participants' attention. These findings informed the development of a final measure in the main study which aimed to be both practical in its ability to capture prevalence and precise in its ability to measure frequency. The main study involved examining the psychometric properties, reliability, and validity of the final measure. Results of the main study indicated that the final measure exhibited qualities of an index and was assessed as such. Further, structural equation modeling techniques and test-retest procedures indicated the measure had good reliability. And, good predictive validity and satisfactory convergent validity was established for the final measure. Results derived from the measure concerning prevalence, frequency, and chronicity are presented within the scope of findings in cyberbullying literature. Implications for practice and future directions for research with the measure developed here are discussed. / Dissertation/Thesis / Ph.D. Communication 2012

The Structure of Cyber and Traditional Aggression: An Integrated Conceptualization

January 2013 (has links)
abstract: ABSTRACT The phenomenon of cyberbullying has captured the attention of educators and researchers alike as it has been associated with multiple aversive outcomes including suicide. Young people today have easy access to computer mediated communication (CMC) and frequently use it to harass one another -- a practice that many researchers have equated to cyberbullying. However, there is great disagreement among researchers whether intentional harmful actions carried out by way of CMC constitute cyberbullying, and some authors have argued that "cyber-aggression" is a more accurate term to describe this phenomenon. Disagreement in terms of cyberbullying's definition and methodological inconsistencies including choice of questionnaire items has resulted in highly variable results across cyberbullying studies. Researchers are in agreement however, that cyber and traditional forms of aggression are closely related phenomena, and have suggested that they may be extensions of one another. This research developed a comprehensive set of items to span cyber-aggression's content domain in order to 1) fully address all types of cyber-aggression, and 2) assess the interrelated nature of cyber and traditional aggression. These items were administered to 553 middle school students located in a central Illinois school district. Results from confirmatory factor analyses suggested that cyber-aggression is best conceptualized as integrated with traditional aggression, and that cyber and traditional aggression share two dimensions: direct-verbal and relational aggression. Additionally, results indicated that all forms of aggression are a function of general aggressive tendencies. This research identified two synthesized models combining cyber and traditional aggression into a shared framework that demonstrated excellent fit to the item data. / Dissertation/Thesis / Ph.D. Educational Psychology 2013

Physical, Verbal, Relational and Cyber-Bullying and Victimization: Examining the Social and Emotional Adjustment of Participants

Mcvean, Melanie 07 April 2017 (has links)
Cyber-bullying has been gaining in popularity as online technology use has greatly expanded in the past decade. There has been quite a bit of research on traditional forms of bullying, which has demonstrated links to various demographic and psychosocial factors. Participation in cyber-bullying and victimization has been linked to some characteristics that are different from other types of bullying. There has been some discussion in the literature regarding whether cyber-bullying is significantly different from other forms of bullying. The literature has also noted the need for more studies utilizing peer-report data. This study utilized peer-report bullying data to examine self-reported psychosocial and emotional adjustment correlates of physical, verbal, relational and cyber-bullying and victimization in middle school. Adjustment indices included self-esteem, depression, prosocial behavior, perceived parental support, and variables measuring friendship adjustment (e.g., number of friends, perceived friendship quality, antisocial peer group, perception of peers, social goals). Cross-sectional associations between peer-reported bullying status and self-reported social and emotional adjustment were examined in adolescents. The data supported many of the hypotheses regarding various social and emotional adjustment indices being linked to the different forms of bullying and victimization. Results have theoretical and practical implications for understanding the social and emotional impact of bullying. Limitations and future directions are discussed.

Parents' perceptions of their adolescent children's internet use

Butler, Zoe Ann January 2016 (has links)
Parents’ perceptions of their adolescent children’s Internet use significantly influences the parental mediation strategies they choose to use with their children. The motivation for this explorative research study was to understand the impact of psychological and social influences on users of the Internet in South Africa. Both locally and internationally, there is a focus on the use of digital Internet devices to facilitate education. Access of South Africans to the Internet, whether for social or educational use does not exist in a vacuum, exempt from the bidirectional forces of the individual and the environment they use the Internet in, whether it is family or academic. This study firstly focusses on how parents perceive their adolescent children’s Internet use, and secondly, how they parent their children’s use of the Internet. The common topics and themes that emerged from this study allow for the development and provision of professional services that individuals, couples, families, and groups require for the use of, or exposure to the Internet. This study uses an explorative-descriptive qualitative research design with an interpretive paradigm and snowball sampling. The qualitative research design focussed on the concepts of self-reflexivity, context, and thick description while utilizing multivocality of 1) international and South African research on cyber citizenship, including cyberbullying, cyber harassment, and legal consequences, with 2) psychological aspects of the psychosocial developmental challenges of adolescents from the iGeneration including the benefits, risks, and dangers of using the Internet, and 3) qualitative data collected from semi-structured interviews with parents from Generation X who are raising and educating a generation of children on the other side of the Digital Divide. Tracy’s 8 ‘Big-Tent’ criteria for guiding excellence in qualitative research and Tesch’s model of content analysis was used during the content analysis process. Themes and sub-themes that emerged from the analysis of the participants’ narratives included 1) experiences: positive and negative, 2) observations: behavioural changes and gender differences, 3) parenting methods: parental interaction, rules, and limits, 4) concerns: risks, and 5) opinions: personal views. This research study provides a thick description of South African and international literature and combines the literature with the voices of the participants and the researcher to produce discussions based on the findings of this qualitative study. Conclusions, recommendations, and limitations of this study informed future research on cyber citizenship by providing a detailed understanding of the context of South African parents and children, the psychosocial developmental challenges of adolescents and, how educational programmes can be best created to effectively impact on the generations of parents, teachers and children in South Africa.
