Face-to-Face bullying is a traditional form of bullying in which bullies attack victims through physical, verbal, or social attacks. Cyberbullying is a new form of bullying. Cyberbullies abuse digital media to attack victims (such as attacks through websites, social networking services, blogging, e-mail, instant messaging, chat rooms, and cell phones). Cyberbullying and face-to-face bullying share many similarities. For example, bullies achieve power over a victim in both cyberbullying and face-to-face bullying. On the other hand, cyberbullying has differences from face-to-face bullying that arise from characteristics of digital media such as anonymity and rapid spreading of attacks. This chapter highlights key concerns of cyberbullying stemming from the use of digital media and discusses existing models of face-to-face bullying which may aid in model cyberbullying. This chapter then introduces state-of-the-art research in automated tools to detect cyberbullying. Finally, this chapter concludes with future perspective of research in automated tools to detect cyberbullying.

Given adolescents' heavy social media use, this study examined a number of predictors of adolescent social media use, as well as predictors of online communication practices. Using data collected from a national sample of 467 adolescents between the ages of 13 and 17, results indicate that demographics, technology access, and technology ownership are related to social media use and communication practices. Specifically, females log onto and use more constructive communication practices on Facebook compared to males. Additionally, adolescents who own smartphones engage in more constructive online communication practices than those who share regular cell phones or those who do not have access to a cell phone. Overall, results imply that ownership of mobile technologies, such as smartphones and iPads, may be more predictive of social networking site use and online communication practices than general ownership of technology.

The Web

With the arrival of the internet, cell phones, e-mail, instant messaging and social networking sites we can do many wonderful things electronically now that make our lives easier and more productive. We should get used to the idea that a good part of our social life can happen in cyberspace. You can keep up with your friends and meet new ones through a keyboard, microphone and a webcam. You can send a detailed e-mail, send a quick message or alert your circle of friends and followers about the latest details what's happening around you. At the same time, we should come to terms with the fact that the cyberspace is flooded with attacks from people who are unscrupulous in their intent to damage others in the cyberspace. The attacks date back to the time when telephone was invented, when the attackers found way to invade people's privacy. For most users, the web is just part of a well-rounded life that includes both a cyber world and a real world. The internet can be helpful, educational and fun. But It can also become an obsession leading to waste of time and money. Just because cyberspace is virtual, that does not mean that there are not real dangers out there. The same sort of bad people who can cause problems for people in the “real” world are also lurking on the internet. They spend their time looking for ways to steal your money, ruin your name or even cause you harm.

AbstractRapidly proliferating social media not only serve as a new channel of human communication but also open up research opportunities to ask a wider set of questions about political, sociological and psychological factors that influence interpersonal and group online communication, development and maintenance of personal networks and the growth or decline of social capital. In this chapter we discuss the research opportunities provided by new survey, observational and experimental data that may be obtained from a social networking site. For doing so, we refer to Russian-language social networking sites (SNS) or SNS segments, notably VKontakte as the most popular SNS in Russia. We demonstrate how the aforementioned types of data may or have already been used to address research tasks from a number of disciplines.

Globalization and the new media boom over the last couple of years have created a divide between the old and the new India. One of the most significant phenomena of this so-called new India is the emergence of English as a lingua franca but not in the proper form of it. In this digital age of online communication [email, text messaging (SMS), instant messaging (WhatsApp, Hike, AOL etc.)], Blogging, Microblogging (Twitter, Tumblr, FriendFeed etc.) and so forth writing (with word limit of, say 160/140) is bound to be smaller than it used to be earlier, but that must never mean that one is free to flout the rules of grammar wholesale. English used in the various sections of new media, especially in the Social Networking Sites [SNS(s)] is in a desperate plight. This article is a probe into the predicament of old English in new India.

The Impact

Social networking sites (SNSs) have become common avenues for young people to share their life experience with peers, including their consumption experience. Although prior research on the media effects of SNSs has shown how online communication on SNSs promotes various volitional behaviors, current understanding is limited with respect to how young people’s use of SNSs is associated with their consumption experience and materialistic values. This study examines how SNS use related to consumption experience is associated with materialistic values among young adults and how their social perceptions mediate such association. This investigation also proposes that young adults’ self-regulation and close relationships with parents would buffer the impact of SNS use. Survey data gathered from 903 youths in Singapore lend strong empirical support to the hypotheses proposed. Implications are discussed.

Os sites de redes sociais facilitam a publicação, a discussão e o compartilhamento de conteúdos por cidadãos. Essas plataformas têm sido usadas na organização e na divulgação de mobilizações em massa por meio de ferramentas, como “Grupos” e “Eventos” do Facebook. Nesse contexto, destaca-se a mobilização de mulheres que articulou ações e estratégias de voto contra o candidato à presidência do Brasil, Jair Messias Bolsonaro (PSL), durante o período eleitoral de 2018 através do site de rede social Facebook. O objetivo deste artigo é compreender como as novas formas de mobilização com base online, aliadas às questões de gênero e representatividade eleitoral, contribuem para a construção de comunidades instantâneas de práticas transformadoras que se consolidam no espaço físico. Para alcançar tal objetivo, os procedimentos metodológicos são formados por uma combinação de técnicas qualitativas (observação, descrição e análise) (FRAGOSO; RECUERO; AMARAL, 2011). O objeto empírico é composto pelos Grupos “Mulheres unidas contra Bolsonaro” e “Mulheres Unidas Contra Bolsonaro | Pará” e pelo Evento “Mulheres contra O Bolsonaro | Belém”.   PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Comunicação Online; Mobilização Online; Gênero; Eleições; #EleNão.     ABSTRACT Social networking sites make it easier for citizens to publish, discuss, and share content.

This article aims to understand how the new forms of online mobilization, allied to gender issues and electoral representativity, contribute to the construction of instant communities of transformative practices which are consolidated in the physical space. In order to do it, our methodological procedures are formed by a combination of qualitative techniques (observation, description and analysis) (FRAGOSO; RECUERO; AMARAL, 2011). The empirical object consists of the Groups “Mulheres unidas contra Bolsonaro” and " Mulheres Unidas Contra Bolsonaro | Pará” and the Event "Mulheres contra O Bolsonaro | Belém”.  KEYWORDS: Online Communication; Online Mobilization; Genre; Elections; #EleNão     RESUMEN Los sitios de redes sociales facilitan la publicación, la discusión y el intercambio de contenidos por ciudadanos.
