    We are Patricia and Emmanuel and we work in the University of Limerick.

    We are interested in researching cyber bullying in secondary schools in Ireland. By this we mean bullying that happens by using technology like mobile phones or computers. The results of this research will help others who may be the victim of this kind of bullying.

    So that we can find out more about this, if you are a second level student we would appreciate if you could fill out this questionnaire. It will only take a few minutes and if you do we will be most grateful. We know that ye are probably very busy so if you can't no bother and thank you for you kind attention.

    If you do wish to take the survey please click on the link below. Thanks again.

    Do your own work FFS, if you want people to take the survey, pay them.

    Ah Fad... if you're planning on going to TCD, prepare to be emailed several times a week with surveys from the psychology department/every other department. Also, you can't do your own work when it's a survey, unless you intend they themselves fill out the same survey over and over...

    Gavin and all those who have filled it out so far, thank you very much.

    Fad, I hope you understand that we are conducting this research to help provide support to young people who have been the victim of cyberbullying. I hope we have not offended you with the request but the more people that respond the more we can help them.

    Kind regards,
    EOG1980

    Done. I'm out of School and 20, but I filled it in as a 18yo sixth year exactly as I would have done at the time.

    Don't be so antisocial, it's a college research project and the results may actually be published and do some good. Opinionated, angry and frankly shít-stirring posts like that don't belong here tbh.

    I'm really not sure:mad: Mocks next week/everyone has an off day........

    Thats debatable, I'm slightly when it comes to surveys about Cyberbullying etc, give my principal more ammo to put talks for parents on, and my parents (MUM!) to sart worrying about the woes of the internet.

    To make it up to the OP I will do the survey:eek:

    Very good point. Never thought about that one. The last thing we need is more scaremongering and pseudo-scientific statistics telling our parents about how bad the internet is. Next thing, I'll have no internet.:mad::mad:

    Thanks to everyone who has so far filled in the survey, it is greatly appreciated. The more people the better.

    The purpose is to develop supports for cyberbullying specifically in Ireland. So for those who are concerned about the impact of the research, it should inform principals and parents etc. of the necessary supports. Thereby the phenomenon of cyberbullying etc., which is already in the public domain, should not be sufficient ammo for anyone to complain about the internet or cut off anyone's access. :)

    All of the findings and suggested supports will be posted here when it is finished and available for all.

    Generally I would delete mindless/pointless/irrelevant surveys, this one seems to be for a good cause and the poster is going about doing it in a relatively thoughtful manner. One of the advantages of having people dedicated to moderatorship of a particular board is that they can individually review threads and decide what should and shouldn't be deleted.

    (So what K4t said. : p)

    Personally I like filling in surveys... >.>

    i love the way this sentence sounds...supports for cyberbullying:D

    btw i agree with fad, another survey about how internet is harmful will once again start off the discussion about taking internet away from young kids and banning every possible site on school computers.
