Resumo(s)
The first study aims to examine cyberbullying roles and their relation to
personal and normative beliefs. For this purpose, a total of 404 7th to 9th
grade students answered the Inventory of Observed Cyberbullying
Incidents. For the second study, semi-structured interviews to 34 9th
grade students were analysed based on the Social Cognitive Theory of
Moral Agency, to understand which moral disengagement mechanisms
were more frequent regarding cyberbullying scenarios. Results revealed
that bystanders were the most common role. Regarding beliefs, the All
type of involvement group considered cyberbullying to be less severe
than Bystanders, Bystanders-Victims and No Involvement group.
Moreover, they perceived that their peer group believed cyberbullying
was less unfair than Bystanders and No Involvement group. The most used
moral disengagement mechanisms were blaming the victim and euphemistic labelling regarding seriousness. Personal, normative beliefs, as well
as moral disengagement mechanisms operating in cyberbullying should
be considered when designing interventions.
