EAGER BullyBlocker Identifying Cyberbullying Social

项目摘要

Cyberbullying is the most common online risk for adolescents, yet the majority of young people who are bullied online do not tell their parents when it occurs. The goal of the BullyBlocker project is to advance the understanding of how cyberbullying, in particular, and behavioral issues, more broadly, can be effectively identified on social networking sites. This interdisciplinary project integrates advances in computer sciences and key findings from psychological research on cyberbullying to (i) design and implement models for identifying cyberbullying on social networking platforms, and (ii) study usage patterns of automated tools based on these models and their utility for devising and testing new hypotheses about cyberbullying risk factors. The intellectual merit of this project stems from its synergistic integration of computer and psychological science to address a social problem that negatively impacts adolescents, their families, and society. The project draws on psychological research on cyberbullying risk factors and advances in computer science to enable the development of automated identification models and the integration of these models into an app (BullyBlocker) that notifies parents about their adolescents' risk of cyberbullying. The project also entails the design of mechanisms to generate customized anti-bullying resources for parents and victims, investigation of app usage patterns and parents' attitudes towards automated identification tools, the use of automated tools such as BullyBlocker to devise and test new hypotheses about cyberbullying, and a unique training opportunity that provides graduate and undergraduate students with the scientific scaffolding to develop into recognized interdisciplinary scholars.

网络欺凌是青少年最常见的在线风险，但是在网上被欺负的大多数年轻人何时不会告诉父母。 Bullyblocker项目的目的是促进对网络欺凌的理解，尤其是在社交网站上可以有效地确定网络欺凌的方式。这个跨学科的项目整合了计算机科学和关键发现的进展，从网络欺凌的心理学研究到（i）设计和实施模型，以识别社交网络平台上的网络欺凌，以及（ii）研究基于这些模型的自动化工具的使用模式及其用于启用和测试有关网络风险风险因素的新假设的实用性及其实用性。该项目的智力优点源于其计算机和心理科学的协同整合，以解决对青少年，家庭和社会产生负面影响的社会问题。该项目借鉴了有关网络欺凌风险因素和计算机科学进展的心理研究，以使自动化识别模型的发展以及将这些模型集成到应用程序（Bullyblocker）中，该应用程序通知父母有关其青少年网络欺凌风险。该项目还需要设计机制，以为父母和受害者生成定制的反欺凌资源，调查应用程序使用模式以及父母对自动化识别工具的态度学者。
