First findings of a national French survey about cyberviolence among lower secondary students

En ligne sur le site de l'IREDU ( http://iredu.u-bourgogne.fr/ )The phenomenon of cyberviolence has been very little studied in France and we have very few quantitative data about this issue in our country. We propose in this poster to present the first findings of a national survey conducted last spring in lower secondary schools. Based on a sample of 1007 students (11-16 yrs old), our analyses will primarily give an insight on the nature and the extent of cyberviolence. We will then examine the link between victimization and perpetration to see if victims and perpetrators are likely to be the same students or not. This question seems to be very important in terms of prevention and intervention
