“Bullying in the Internet Age: The State of Cyberbullying among Teens in Turkey”
specifically addresses cyberbullying as an issue to be discussed in the field of media and
communication for uses and literacy. Cyberbullying has become and is still a fragile
problem with the enhancement of contemporary technologies. To determine why young
individuals are engaged in these behaviors is in its infancy because of ever-changing
technology uses in Turkey, and its theoretical underpinnings are still researched. To put a
finer point on these experiences turning into cyberbullying acts is in need of knowing the
social media uses of young individuals, addressing a necessity in defining what
cyberbullying is within Turkey’s context, and examining the types of cyberbullying which
young individuals are confronted with in detail.
Sinan Aşçı (Ph.D., Galatasaray University) is an assistant professor in the Department of
New Media at Bahçeşehir University. His research interests include cyberbullying, social
media and cyberculture, digitization, and digital literacy.
