Comparing the Impact of Cyberbullying and Face to Face Bullying on Young Adults

This study explores how is Cyberbullying and face to face bullying impacting on young adults. By examining the frequency and relative effects of face to face and cyberbullying on young adults, this study explores the important topic of bullying. Data was carefully gathered from a sample of 109–112 respondents, representing a wide spectrum of young adults, by gender and occupation, using a survey-based methodology. The study sought to determine the degree to which this group is impacted by these two types of bullying and to draw attention to the subtle variations in their effects. The data clearly shows that both face to face and cyberbullying are major issues among the population surveyed. Face to face bullying typically occurs in direct, personal interactions, leaving immediate and tangible emotional and physical scars, and the study also emphasizes the particular difficulties that cyberbullying presents. This type of bullying poses a unique set of issues because of its widespread reach, tenacity, potential for anonymity, and ease of disseminating damaging content. The results show that victims of cyberbullying frequently endure ongoing online harassment, and that cyberbullying frequently entails higher rates of recurrent incidents. Because victims of cyberbullying feel constantly exposed and vulnerable, the persistent nature of this behaviour can greatly exacerbate psychological distress.
