Resumen
BUELGA, Sofía y PONS, Javier. Aggressions among adolescents through mobile phones and the Internet. Psychosocial Intervention [online]. 2012, vol.21, n.1, pp.91-101. ISSN 2173-4712. https://dx.doi.org/10.5093/in2012v21n1a2.
The aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence of adolescent aggressors (cyberbullies) through modern information and communication technologies (the internet and cellular phones). The differences in gender and academic year according to the type of technological aggression were also examined. The participants were 1390 adolescents aged 12-17 years old. The results indicated that almost one third of adolescents have made an attack on their peers through new technologies in the last year. Regarding the duration and intensity of cybernetic harassment, it was observed that cyberbullying mainly occurs for less than a month and with moderate intensity -no more than once a week. For the majority of technological aggressions, boys and students in the last grade of highschool bullied more than their counterparts.
