In particular, we are interested in cyberbullying and the effects of cyberbullying on adolescent life. What is more, in 2020 the impact of COVID-19 has increased the digital presence of cyberbullying behaviours. This phenomenon is extremely complex, since it is multicomponential and multifactorial, and many components act on it. Starting with an analysis of the literature, this work offers preliminary data towards the validation of a self-reporting questionnaire; it was administered to 650 adolescents, to evaluate their perceptions of the victims of cyberbullying. The questionnaire consisted of  \n33 items; Principal Component Analysis was applied, which identified the dimensions resuming the items’variability. The findings confirmed the multidimensional nature of the issue covered by the questionnaire and highlighted three psychological dimensions: Internalisation, Counterbalance and Marginalisation. The results support the structure of the questionnaire, useful to quickly collect information about adolescents’perception of cybervictimisation. The assessment of this information might help teachers, educators, and tutors to formulate targeted interventions to combat the spread of cyberbullying aimed for example at improving emotional intelligence, starting from the construction of emotional contagion.  \nKeywords: cyberbullying, adolescent representations, cybervictims, assessment  \nINTRODUCTION  \nWhile the Internet has its benefits, there has been much speculation as to whether the Internet may also be harmful to social and psychological well-being (Kraut et al., 1998; Marchant et al., 2017; Twenge et al., 2019) . Although digital communication has some indisputable and acknowledged advantages (Gross et al., 2002), these can easily turn negative and lead to risky situations (Sabella et al., 2013) .  \nThe significant advantages offered by the Internet may be accompanied by risks and dangers which children and young people often fall victim to, especially digital natives. Digital natives are significant users of new technologies who are however often unaware of the difficulties posed by the Internet (Hinduja & Patchin, 2013; Lareki et al., 2017) . Often even adults (digital immigrants) are not fully aware of the risks associated with the use of the Internet and new technologies.  \nIn particular, with the more pervasive use of technology, the phenomenon of cyberbullying has also increased (Ansary, 2020; Aoyama, 2011; Watts et al., 2017) . According to the literature (Jain et al., 2000), cyberbullying is a continuing trend mainly among adolescents and young adults. What is more, in 2020 the impact of COVID- 19 has increased individuals’ digital presence and it is speculated that the pandemic has triggered a significant rise in cyberbullying.  \nCyberbullying has been designated as a serious public health problem, which can dramatically affec","cbCaiaeLvXepTALA","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaeLvXepTALA","pdf",307624,12,"English","en",105,"# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Cyberbullying in online environments\n## Key features of cyberbullying\n## Study focus: role and representations of victims","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the study described in the abstract?\",\"answer\":\"To provide preliminary data validating a self-report questionnaire that measures adolescents’ perceptions of cyberbullying victims.\"},{\"question\":\"How many adolescents completed the questionnaire?\",\"answer\":\"The questionnaire was administered to 650 adolescents.\"},{\"question\":\"What main psychological dimensions were identified in the findings?\",\"answer\":\"Principal Component Analysis supported a multidimensional structure and highlighted three psychological dimensions: Internalisation, Counterbalance, and Marginalisation.\"}]","Who Are the Victims of Cyberbullying?
