几十年来，社会参照群体（如家庭成员、同学和朋友）对青少年的态度和行为的影响已在研究中得到承认。随着网络媒体的使用越来越多，网络欺凌已成为青少年研究的一个主要问题。本文比较了德国高中生网络欺凌行为中各种形式的同伴影响。具体而言，亲密的朋友和更遥远的同龄人在学校类犯罪者和受害者的角色的影响进行了比较。结果表明，类上下文是高度相关的网络欺凌。对于犯罪和受害这两个过程，学校班级中网络欺凌者的数量在预测个人行为方面起着重要作用。从个人风险因素来看，结果表明，网络欺凌与社交网站的使用密切相关，受害风险随着在线时间的增加而增加。
The influence of social reference groups such as family members, classmates and friends on adolescents' attitudes and behavior has been acknowledged in research for many decades. With the increasing use of online media, cyberbullying has become a major issue in adolescence research. In this paper, we compare various forms of peer influence on cyberbullying behavior among high school students in Germany. Specifically, the impact of close friends and more distant peers in the school class on perpetrator and victim roles is compared. The results indicate that the class context is highly relevant for cyberbullying. For both processes-perpetration and victimization-the number of cyberbullies within a school class plays an important role in predicting individual behavior. Looking at individual risk factors, the results show that cyberbullying is strongly related to the use of social networking sites, and the risk of victimization increases with the time spent online.
