Abstract | In a society where it is becoming more common for perpetrators to choose electronic forms of communication (cell phones, social media, etc.) to bully others, it is crucial that we understand how our country is working to intervene in this cyberbullying epidemic. Therefore, this systematic research synthesis sought to examine all intervention efforts addressing cyberbullying that have been implemented within the United States. A systematic search using variations of cyberbullying intervention program search terms was narrowed down to a final sample size of 11 articles fitting the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results suggested that programs addressing cyberbullying have only been implemented in schools or online, and most have not been evaluated for their effect on actual cyberbullying behaviors, but rather on attitudes and intentions about cyberbullying. Despite the significant concern about cyberbullying and its potential problematic outcomes, there seems to be a glaring lack of effective evidence-based programs that have been implemented in the United States. |
