Call for Papers - Cyberbullying: Definition, Measurement, Correlates and Development
With the increase and diffusion of modern technologies a new form of aggression and bullying has emerged. Many researchers refer to these new forms with the term Cyberbullying, Electronic Bullying, or Internet Bullying.
Based on the existing research findings, there is primarily a need for a clear and accepted definition of cyberbullying taking into account the definition of traditional bullying. As different measurement approaches are applied, a systematic discussion about why what approach may be used and what findings may be expected is needed. Furthermore, more knowledge on correlates of cyberbullying is needed.
We openly invite contributions to a topical special issue of the European Journal of Developmental Psychology on "Cyberbullying: Definition, Measurement, Correlates and Development”.
