The aim of the present study is to test a model investigating the relationships among coping style, emotion regulation, rumination, perceived social support in victims of traditional and cyber bullying. The sample of the present study consists of 853 adolescents aged between 14 and18, attending public high schools in Ankara. The Revised Cyber Bullying Inventory-II, The Revised Olweus Bully/Victim Questionnaire, Brief COPE, Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, Ruminative Response Scale, Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, and Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire were utilized to collect data. After identifying the participants who reported that they were victimized, the proposed model was tested with traditional victims (n = 482) and cyber victims (n= 511) because cyber and traditional bullying are reported to be strongly related. The SEM results revealed that victimization was positively related to internalizing behavior through maladaptive coping. Also, receiving less support from family and difficulty in reappraisal were found positively associated to internalizing behavior. For traditional victims, rumination was found to be positively related to internalizing behavior, but for cyber victims this path was not significant. The results indicated several other indirect relationships among the related variables of victims’ internalizing behavior. Consequently, despite the minor differences between the model with traditional victims and the model with cyber victims, two models converged similarly. For both models rather than the direct association from victimization to internalizing behavior, coping style, rumination, reappraisal, and family support was found to be mediating the relationship. Findings were discussed in the light of the related literature.

The Relationships between cyber bullying perpetration motives and personality traits: testing uses and gratifications theory
Tanrıkulu, İbrahim; Erdur Baker, Özgür; Department of Educational Sciences (2015)
This study aimed to examine the interplay between personality traits (online disinhibition, moral disengagement, narcissism and aggression) and cyber bullying perpetration motives (entertainment, revenge, harm and dominance). A structural equation model which was built in accordance with the Uses and Gratifications Theory was tested. Cyber bully-victims (n= 598) were the participants who were university students (61.3% were males) attending state universities and ranging in age from 17 to 27. Data collectio...
Psychological consequences of cyber bullying experiences among Turkish secondary school children
Erdur Baker, Özgür (2010-02-08)
This study aimed to examine the relations of cyber bullying experiences of Turkish secondary school children (as a victim and bully) to demographic variables (age and gender) and depressive symptoms. The participants were 165 secondary school students (94 females and 71 males) whose ages ranged from 10 to 14. According to the results, there is a significant interaction effect between age and gender on cyber bullying experiences, but they are not related to being a cyber victim. In other words, while school ...

Differentiated Function of School in Socio-Culturally Disadvantaged Context: A Constructivist Grounded Theory Study from Turkey
Caliskan, Zuhal Zeybekoglu; Simsek, Hasan; Kondakçı, Yaşar (2017-09-01)
This study analyses the functioning of a school as a social system in an atypical context with the purpose of generating propositions to tackle educational problems confronted by socially and economically disadvantaged groups attending these schools. Adopting the constructivist grounded theory, the analysis suggests that there is a kind of “vicious cycle” in the functioning of this atypical school, which adversely affects the school system. Breaking the vicious cycle involves five basic propositions: (1) ma...
