Previous studies on cyberbullying provided knowledge about ways youths cope with cyberbullying; yet the literature lacks information about the efficacy of the coping strategies of cyberbullying victims. The purpose of this straight qualitative study was to investigate what coping strategies cyberbullying victims found effective for handling cyberbullying. The transactional model of coping, approach-avoidance coping, and self-efficacy theory formed the conceptual model to explore, analyze, and understand coping with cyberbullying. Using flyers and snowball sampling, 6 adolescents in Grades 10 to 12 were recruited to participate in the study. Data from semistructured phone interviews were analyzed using the Colazzi method. Pattern matching was used to assess the validity of the findings and to examine the viability of previously used coping theories for explaining coping with cyberbullying. According to the findings, situational context influenced coping strategy development, use, and effectiveness. Adolescents’ age, experience, and maturity were significant to their approaches to cyberbullying. Whether the adolescents were attempting to thwart or to keep the cyberbullying from being hurtful were significant to coping strategy use and effectiveness. Future research would benefit from further exploring the role of context in coping strategy use and effectiveness, developmental differences in coping with cyberbullying, examining the efficacy of the support cyberbullying victims receive, and developing a practical coping model for cyberbullying. These findings may inform prevention and intervention efforts for cyberbullying and may foster new research on coping with cyberbullying.

It is my personal evidence, and my message to others, that all things can be achieved through passion and determination. I also dedicate this work to my daughter, Emily, who by no choice of her own came along for the ride. She is my joy; she is my hero. I admire and respect her more than she knows, and I hope that someday she will be inspired by this accomplishment. My wish is that she will draw from my desires to challenge myself, to continue growing as a person, and to make a difference, yet do so in her own way. Acknowledgments To the teens who were gracious enough to share your stories with me: I thank you. Without you this study would not have been possible. To my parents, Howard and Jan Anderson: You allowed me to simultaneously be the best parent, person, and student I could be by supporting me unconditionally through this entire process. This was a true gift, for which a thank you does not seem enough. To my brothers, Jason and Trent: Each of you contributed to my success in your own unique ways. For this I am grateful beyond words and I feel blessed to have you. To P. Neal Meier: You are my coach, my mentor, and my guardian angel. You always find a way to provide the proper mix of wisdom, humor, tough love, and encouragement needed for success, which definitely helped me during this time. To my Chair, Dr. Lynde Paule: You have helped me to grow as a person, as a scholar, and as a positive contributor to myself and to those my life touches. Your influence forever will be present. To my Committee Member, Dr. Martha Giles: Your expert guidance, support, and kindness facilitated my success at each stage along the way. To Jessica: I could always count on you to fuel the fires that helped me overcome the obstacles and hurtles to completing my dissertation.

    * African Borders as Sources of Natural Experiments Daniel N. Posner Department of Political Science University of California, Los Angeles Los Angeles, CA 90095-1472 [email protected] This version: 12 February 2006 * Paper prepared for presentation in the Colloquium Series of the Yale Program in Agrarian Studies, 17 February 2006. I thank John McCauley for sharing his data on religious identification along the Côte d’Ivoire-Burkina Faso border and Anoop Sarbahi for his help assembling the GPCP rainfall data. The arbitrary nature of Africa’s borders is well known.1 Less well recognized is the opportunity that these arbitrary borders provide for social science research. This paper describes some of the shortcomings of traditional, observational studies and shows how natural experiments can provide for more reliable inferences about causality. The paper then draws on examples from three different projects to illustrate how the artificial nature of Africa’s borders can be used as a source of natural experiments. The Quest for Causal Inferences in Social Science Research In the social sciences, researchers typically make causal inferences through observational studies. These are analyses where the variables that the researcher is studying acquire their values through the unfolding of real-world events that are outside the researcher’s control (Collier et al 2004). The problem with observational studies is that they make it difficult or impossible to rule out the possibility that other, unmeasured variables may be the cause of the observed relationship between the variables of interest. Suppose, for example, we are interested in the linkage between smoking and cancer.

    B.J.Pol.S. 49, 421–441 Copyright © Cambridge University Press, 2017 doi:10.1017/S0007123416000594 First published online 8 March 2017 The Political Sources of Religious Identification: Evidence from the Burkina Faso–Côte d’Ivoire Border JOHN F. MCCAULEY AND DANIEL N. POSNER* Under what conditions does religion become a salient social identity? By measuring religious attachment among the people living astride the Burkina Faso–Côte d’Ivoire border in West Africa, an arbitrary boundary that exposes otherwise similar individuals to different political contexts, this article makes a case for the importance of the political environment in affecting the weight that people attach to their religious identities. After ruling out explanations rooted in the proportion of different religious denominations, the degree of secularization and the supply of religious institutions on either side of the border, as well as differences in the degree of religious pluralism at the national level, it highlights the greater exposure of Ivorian respondents to the politicization of religion during Côte d’Ivoire’s recent civil conflict. Methodologically, the study demonstrates the power – and challenges – of exploiting Africa’s arbitrary borders as a source of causal leverage. Keywords: arbitrary borders; natural experiment; religion; Côte d’Ivoire; Burkina Faso; conflict; identities An estimated 85 per cent of the world’s population claims membership in a religious group.1 Yet the importance that people attach to their religious identity varies considerably. For some, religion is the defining characteristic of who they are; their politics and perspectives on the world are inextricably bound up in their faith. For others, religious group membership is merely one social attachment among many; their attitudes and behavior are little affected by their religious affiliation.

Student Experiences and Perceptions of Cyberbullying A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Educational Psychology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand. Gillian M. Harrison 2013 ii Abstract Over the last decade, researchers have found that some adolescents are being bullied not only by traditional methods but also via electronic communication devices. This study provides an overview of student responses to a survey regarding cyberbullying, and explores the reasons students are often reluctant to report victimisation to adults. It includes both quantitative and qualitative data obtained from self-report surveys developed to measure the prevalence of cyberbullying, the media most frequently used for cyberbullying, the nature and content of offensive communications, the extent of reporting victimisation, and student views on preventing and reducing cyberbullying. A total of 154 students aged 13 to 18 years old from three schools in the Bay of Plenty participated in the study. The results provide some insights into the reasons that adolescents often do not tell an adult about being cyberbullied. The main reasons for not telling appear to be beliefs that peers can help more than an adult as well as a culture in which telling an adult may be considered "ratting". Student views on how schools can best deal with cyberbullying involved issues of confidentiality and safety, appropriate discipline, and ensuring school-wide awareness of anti- bullying procedures.

  • Rosewarne, Lauren (2017) “'Nothing Crueler Than High School Students
    International Journal of Technoethics Volume 8 • Issue 1 • January-June 2017 “Nothing Crueler than High School Students”: The Cyberbully in Film and Television Lauren Rosewarne, School of Social and Political Sciences, University of Melbourne, Melbourne, Australia ABSTRACT The Internet as a fearful place is a theme apparent in numerous film and television presentations whereby fears and anxieties about new technology are exploited and new ethical challenges are mounted. The idea that the Internet can make a person, particularly a young person, vulnerable has much traction on screen: in the context of bullying, narratives frequently demonstrate that while it was once restricted to the parameters of school—the school grounds and the school day—the Internet enables such behavior to happen at any time and for it to occur repeatedly with an infinite audience. Anybody with Internet access—be it via their laptop or smartphone—can be bullied; equally, anyone with access to such technology can become the bully. Revictimization is the starting point for this discussion and a key factor in distinguishing cyberbullying from the schoolyard terror of the pre–Web era. The public nature of many online attacks means that victims experience abuse in an ongoing fashion in turn, exacerbating and prolonging the trauma. Other themes explored include the flexibility of roles: whereas in schoolyard bullying the victim is frequently the weaker kid preyed upon by someone older and stronger; online the weaker kid can effortlessly become the bully themselves in a world where physical brawn is less important than computer prowess. Age and gender are also examined, along with emerging social concerns such as slut-shaming and revenge porn.

The polarization in voters has been attributed in part to the Internet’s perpetuation of “echo chambers” and “filter bubbles” that allow people of similar political views to validate and reinforce each other’s ideologies, leading to stronger and more extreme political views (Sunstein 2009; Flaxman, Goel, & Rao 2016). It was also evident that social media engagement in relation to politics had increased since the 2012 election (Pew Report 2018).
