Many people spend a significant amount of their daily lives communicating with one another online. Children and teenagers are significantly more likely than adults to engage socially online, enabling them to communicate with anyone, anywhere from a very young age. These users may be unaware that they are harming others by their words and actions online, while those exposed to such antisocial behaviour online may feel unable to remove themselves from situations detrimental to their mental wellbeing.Research in psychology and the social sciences has shown that negative experiences with online contact can have deleterious effects on users' mental health and may in turn encourage certain types of antisocial behaviours. While all users can and should be concerned about who they engage with online, this project focuses on groups of users who are likely to have specific concerns about exposure to online content and contact, such as parental figures, teenagers, and children. This project has the potential to both help users who exhibit antisocial conduct to engage in more prosocial behaviour, and to prevent others from being subjected to harmful behaviours.At its core, this research seeks to develop tools that afford users greater control over the contact they experience in online spaces. It combines research from psychology, learning sciences, linguistics, and computer science in order to explore automated solutions that can identify specific threats within the context of online interactions in real time. Specifically, pattern analysis of word use in conversations will be used to assess whether a user's online conversation displays antisocial characteristics. These methods will be combined with machine learning to create tools that can be deployed as conversations unfold.The ultimate purpose of this research is to provide two complimentary measures to make online communication safer: On the one hand, it will produce tools that provide real-time educational interventions to individuals whose conversations display traits of specific types of conduct, such as cyberbullying. On the other, it will provide users seeking to protect themselves and those under their care (e.g. parents and children) with a notification system when conversations escalate to levels that the users deem undesirable.This project falls within the EPSRC Digital Economy research area where Trust, identity, Privacy and Security is one of the themes or research areas listed on this website https://www.epsrc.ac.uk/research/ourportfolio/themes/.

许多人花费大量的日常生活在网上互相交流。儿童和青少年比成年人更有可能在网上社交参与，从而使他们能够与年轻的任何地方与任何人进行交流。这些用户可能不知道自己正在通过网上言语和行动伤害他人，而那些在线接触这种反社会行为的人可能会觉得无法将自己从不利于其心理健康的情况中消除。研究心理学和社会科学的研究表明，负面在线联系的经验可能会对用户的心理健康产生有害影响，进而可能鼓励某些类型的反社会行为。尽管所有用户都可以并且应该担心他们在网上与谁互动，但该项目集中在可能对接触在线内容和联系人（例如父母的人物，青少年和儿童）中特别担心的用户群体。该项目有可能帮助表现出反社会行为以进行更多亲社会行为的用户，并防止其他人受到有害行为。有在线空间的经验。它结合了心理学，学习科学，语言学和计算机科学的研究，以探索可以实时识别在线互动中特定威胁的自动解决方案。具体而言，对话中的单词使用模式分析将用于评估用户的在线对话是否显示反社会特征。这些方法将与机器学习相结合，以创建可以随着对话的展开而部署的工具。这项研究的最终目的是提供两种免费措施，以使在线沟通更安全：一方面，它将产生可提供房地产的工具对对话表现出特定类型行为（例如网络欺凌）特征的个人的时间教育干预措施。另一方面，当对话升级为用户认为不可取的水平时，它将为寻求保护自己和受到关怀的人（例如父母和子女）提供通知系统。该项目属于EPSRC数字经济研究领域。 ，身份，隐私和安全性是该网站上列出的主题或研究领域之一https://www.epsrc.ac.uk/research/ourportfolio/themes/。
