Abstract:
This study examines whether students' experience of combined victimization, the experience of both traditional bullying and cyberbullying, is correlated with psychological difficulties. Additionally, the study examines whether Israeli students who cope with combined victimization differ in their resilience resources from students who experience solely traditional bullying, cyberbullying, or neither. Participants included 430 students aged 13-15 years from four Israeli schools who completed self-report questionnaires. The study results indicate that students who experience combined victimization experience significantly greater psychological difficulties than students who experience traditional bullying and students who experience no victimization. Moreover, the extent of emotional self-efficacy and social support among students who experienced combined victimization was significantly lower than those who experienced no victimization. Implications of the results are discussed.
