Description

The survey forms comprised the demographic profile sheet, Adolescent Peer Relations Questionnaire (Parada, 2000), and Online Victimization Scale for Adolescents - General Online Victimization subscale (Tynes et al., 2010). The Adolescent Peer Relations Questionnaire by Parada (2000) consists of 36 items to assess bullying experiences in the past year of school life. It is used to measure bullying and victimization experiences across three dimensions that are physical, verbal, and social. Each of the six subscales in this questionnaire is measured with six items. The Online Victimization Scale for Adolescents by Tynes et al. (2010) consists of 21 items across four subscales, general online victimization, sexual online victimization, individual online racial discrimination, and vicarious online racial discrimination. The present data set used the General Online Victimization subscale which consists of eight items.
