Resumo(s)
This study investigated the influence of campus climate dimensions,
namely newcomer adjustment and feelings of well-being on the
tendency for victims of cyberbullying to become aggressors, and how
cultural issues could influence students’ involvement in situations of
cyberbullying. Participants included 979 Portuguese and Brazilian
university students who responded to the Cyberbullying Inventory for
College Students and the Institutional and Psychosocial Campus Climate
Inventory. Moderation analyses revealed that the relationship between
being a victim and being an aggressor of cyberbullying was influenced
by variables of the psychosocial campus climate and cultural aspects.
Student victims from Brazil showed a significant tendency to become
aggressors, independently of their level of newcomer adjustment and
feelings of well-being, whereas the victims from Portugal tended to
break the cycle between being a victim and being an aggressor.
Implications for future research, preventive practices and university
policies are discussed.
