Resumo
O presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar a relação entre a adição à Internet (medida através do Internet Addiction Test- IAT), a vitimização por cyberbullying (medido através do Cybervictimization Questionnaire- CYVIC) e agressão por cyberbullying (medido através do Cyber-aggression Questionnaire- CYBA). A amostra foi constituída por 553 adolescentes e jovens adultos, com idades compreendidas entre os 17 e os 30 anos. Observamos que 82.2% dos participantes apresenta adição leve a moderada à Internet. Os resultados apresentam diferenças ao nível das idades, sendo os adolescentes o grupo etário mais envolvido em cibervitimização. Sugerem, ainda, diferenças na frequência de uso da Internet em relação ao uso adicto da Internet, verificando-se que mais horas de utilização diária da Internet estão relacionadas com o uso adicto à mesma. Foi, possível, ainda, apurar que a adição à Internet está positivamente associada à cibervitimização e à ciberagressão e, ainda, foi constatada uma associação positiva entre a cibervitimização e a ciberagressão. Por último, verifica-se um efeito preditor da adição à Internet sobre as duas formas de cyberbullying. Destaca-se a necessidade de maior atenção por parte dos profissionais de saúde relativamente às problemáticas que surgem no mundo virtual.
