Bullying02:04

Bullying

8.9K
A modern form of aggression is bullying. As you learn in your study of child development, socializing and playing with other children is beneficial for children’s psychological development. However, as you may have experienced as a child, not all play behavior has positive outcomes. Some children are aggressive and want to play roughly. Other children are selfish and do not want to share toys. One form of negative social interactions among children that has become a national concern is...

Relative Risk01:12

Relative Risk

2.3K
Relative risk (RR) is a statistical measure commonly used in epidemiology to compare the likelihood of a particular event occurring between two groups. This metric is important for evaluating the relationship between exposure to a specific risk factor and the probability of a particular outcome. It plays a crucial role in medical research, public health studies, and risk assessment. Relative risk quantifies how much more (or less) likely an event is to occur in an exposed group compared to an...

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection

14.2K
The hosts' susceptibility to infection depends on several factors. The integrity of the skin and mucous membranes helps protect the body against microbial attacks. When the skin is altered, the chance of infection, limb loss, and even death increases.
The integrity and count of the white blood cells help the body resist pathogens and fight infection. When impaired, it reduces the body's resistance to pathogens. The acidic pH levels of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary tracts, and skin...

Ethnic Identity within a Larger Culture

355
Adolescents from ethnic minority backgrounds face a multifaceted journey in forming their identities, shaped by the intersections of cultural expectations and personal exploration. For these adolescents, identity formation involves not only typical developmental challenges but also navigating the perceptions and attitudes of the majority culture. As they grow, adolescents in ethnic minority groups often become increasingly aware of stereotypes, social biases, and discrimination, all of which...

Bystander Effect02:09

Bystander Effect

10.4K
The discussion of bullying highlights the problem of witnesses not intervening to help a victim. This is a common occurrence, as the following well-publicized event demonstrates. In 1964, in Queens, New York, a 19-year-old woman named Kitty Genovese was attacked by a person with a knife near the back entrance to her apartment building and again in the hallway inside her apartment building. When the attack occurred, she screamed for help numerous times and eventually died from her stab wounds.

Prevalence and Incidence01:08

Prevalence and Incidence

2.1K
In statistical epidemiology and health sciences, two essential metrics—prevalence and incidence—are fundamental for understanding disease dynamics within a population. These measures enable public health officials, epidemiologists, and researchers to assess the burden of diseases, allocate resources effectively, and design impactful public health policies and interventions.
Prevalence indicates the proportion of individuals in a population who have a specific disease or health...

Area of Science:

  • Cybercrime and Cybersecurity
  • Criminology
  • Internet Security

Background:

  • The internet offers convenience but also exposes users to cybercrime risks.
  • Cyber-dependent offenses include malware, ransomware, and personal data misuse.
  • The Routine Activity Approach posits crime results from motivated offenders, suitable targets, and lack of capable guardians.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify factors influencing cyber-dependent crime.
  • To examine variations in these factors across malware, ransomware, and personal data misuse.
  • To apply the Routine Activity Approach to cybercrime victimization.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of a random sample of 26,665 internet users in Germany (aged 16+).
  • Data collected in 2014.
  • Statistical analysis to determine influencing factors on cyber-dependent victimization.

Main Results:

  • 16.6% of respondents experienced cyber-dependent victimization in 2014.
  • Individual, household, online, and prevention behaviors significantly influence victimization risk.
  • The impact of these factors differs across malware, ransomware, and personal data misuse offenses.

Conclusions:

  • Cyber-dependent crime risk is not uniform; it depends on multiple factors as per the Routine Activity Approach.
  • Separate analysis of different cybercrime offenses is warranted due to varying influencing factors.
  • Understanding multivariate factors is crucial for effective cybercrime prevention strategies.
