Özet
The development of technology and especially the changes and innovations experienced in the development of mobile technologies have increased the use of such technological devices in the society. Mobile technologies and smart phones among them have positive effects both in social life and academic life, alongside situations that cause some negative consequences as a result of intensive use of such technologies. Cyberbullying behaviour, which aims to harm others' lives by using technological devices, comes to the forefront among these problems. Therefore, this study aims to investigate engagement in cyberbullying behaviour and the sensitivity towards cyberbullying, which is a common behaviour especially among secondary school students. The study was carried out with 747 secondary school students studying in the first and second year in the fall term of the 2019-2020 academic year. “Cyberbullying Scale” and “Sensitivity towards Cyberbullying Scale” were used for data collection. Descriptive statistics, Mann Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis H and Spearman rho tests were used to evaluate the data that were found not to show normal distribution. As a result of the study, it was determined that the students' levels of engagement in cyberbullying behaviour were “low”, whereas their sensitivity levels towards cyberbullying were “high”. In the study, it was revealed that there is a difference between students' engaging in cyberbullying behaviour and their sensitivity towards cyberbullying in terms of gender and grade variables. While in the study it was revealed that difference. © 2020, Ozgen Korkmaz. All rights reserved.
