Goals
"This exploratory research on young Italians (16-34 years) was conducted
within a wider study project, aimed at studying hybridizations between cyberbullying
and incivility, in online environments. The study follows two guidelines:
1. The perceptions of the acceptability of the different forms of online
cyberbullying and incivility;
2. The direct online communication experiences, intended to evaluate the
tools used, the behavior/content conveyed, and their relationship with
specific digital contexts." (Lovari & Rega, 2019, p.228)
