Citation
Description This chapter explores current knowledge on coping with cyberbullying. We define coping strategies as responses (behaviours, but also emotions/cognitions) that are successful (or not) against cyberbullying and against its impact on victims. In the current chapter, we differentiate between two domains of responses to cyberbullying: (a) how parents and schools can prevent cyberbullying through the reduction of risks, and (b) how victims can cope with cyberbullying in order to combat the problem and buffer its negative impact.
