Summary of the Material
This chapter provides an in-depth insight into the profiles of cyber
victims and aggressor and highlights the causes of rising online
vulnerability amongst adolescents.
Reliability of the Material
Firstly, the handbook was published in July, 2014 thus, it delivers an
up-to-date evaluation of the present situation and provides statistics
and research findings that can be used effectively to substantiate
the current condition. Comments about adolescent behavior are
highly reliable as they are substantiated with explanations by Kaveri
Subrahmanyam who is from the Department of Child and Family
Studies, California State University and Childrens Digital Media
Centre, University of California. Kaveri Subrahmanyam has also
released articles regarding adolescents online interactions and
hence would be well versed in the field of adolescent conduct
particularly in the cyber sphere.
Secondly, the sentiments of the youth population of Europe has
been corroborated by findings from The EU Kids Online network
