Bullying and cyberbullying are serious issues that significantly impact individual's mental and emotional well-being. Traditional bullying involves physical, verbal, or social harm inflicted by one person or group onto another, often characterized by a power imbalance. It can occur in various settings, such as schools, workplaces, and communities, and can lead to long-term psychological effects, including anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. Cyberbullying, a modern extension of traditional bullying, takes place online or through digital devices. It includes harmful behaviors like spreading rumors, sending threatening messages, and sharing private information without consent. Both forms of bullying have profound consequences, highlighting the need for proactive measures. Education and awareness programs can help individuals recognize and respond to bullying behavior. Encouraging open communication and fostering supportive environments are crucial steps in prevention. Additionally, implementing strict policies and offering resources for victims can mitigate the adverse effects. This book consists of contributions made by international experts on cyberbullying and bullying. It will also provide interesting topics for research which interested readers can take up. It aims to serve as a resource guide for students and professionals alike and contribute to the growth of the discipline.
