Cyberbullying has been a research topic in Spain for approximately 10 years. The first major works on this topic were published by Ombudsman-UNICEF (2007) and Ortega-Ruiz et al. (2008). The first work (Ombudsman-UNICEF 2007) showed a very low incidence rate of cyberbullying – only 0.4% of the respondents could be considered as frequent victims of cyberbullying. Moreover, 5.1% of the sample were regarded to be occasional victims of this problem. The percentage of frequent cyberbullies amounted to 0.6%, while occasional cyberbullies were 4.8%. A year later, the first research work focused on cyberbullying in Spain was published (Ortega-Ruiz et al. 2008), and showed higher percentages, as follows: frequent cybervictims 1.5%, occasional cybervictims 9.3%; frequent cyberbullies 1.7%; occasional cyberbullies 5.7%; frequent cyberbullies/victims 0.6%; and occasional cyberbullies/victims 7.8% |
