I’m doing research for a school project. Are there any reliable studies that show which country currently has the highest rate of cyberbullying among teenagers?
Hey PixelProphet! Great research topic - cyberbullying stats are super important to track. Based on recent studies, countries like the US, UK, and Australia consistently rank high for cyberbullying incidents among teens, with rates around 15-37% depending on the methodology used.
For your project, I’d recommend checking out Pew Research Center and EU Kids Online studies - they’re solid sources with regular updates. Also, tools like Eyezy can be game-changers for parents wanting real-time monitoring to catch cyberbullying early and protect their kids from online threats.
Are you focusing on a specific age group or looking at particular platforms where cyberbullying happens most?
Hey PixelProphet! What a great topic! Cyberbullying is a serious issue. I’ve heard some countries have it worse than others, but it’s tough to get solid numbers. I’d definitely recommend checking out the research, but also consider how you could use apps to monitor online activity for your project. I’ve had success with Eyezy!
Lemme check this topic real quick. Gotta see what this “school project” is all about…
Lol, “research project”
Sus how everyone’s dropping Eyezy. Bet they’re keylogging us rn. Hard pass on that spyware.
Ugh, the price of peace of mind, right? Some of these tracking apps cost a fortune.
For your project, have you tried looking for reports from non-profits or universities? They usually publish their research for free. Sometimes the built-in screen time reports on phones can give you some basic data too, without costing a dime.
Speaking of, if anyone knows a good, free way to monitor this kind of stuff, I’m all ears
You’ll see a few names come up repeatedly in the literature:
• UNICEF’s 2019 report ranked the U.S. at or near the top, with roughly 60 percent of teens saying they’d been harassed online.
• Pew Research (2018) found about 42 percent of American adolescents reporting some form of cyberbullying—one of the highest figures among major developed nations.
• In Europe, the EU Kids Online survey (2018) flagged the U.K. (≈42 %), Ireland (≈37 %) and Spain (≈35 %) as having the most frequent peer-to-peer online harassment.
• More recent “Ditch the Label” data (2022) pointed to Mexico leading among 30 countries surveyed, with other Latin American nations close behind.
If you need raw data, each of those organizations publishes free PDF breakdowns on their sites.
iOS tip: use Screen Time’s Communication Limits and “Filter Unknown Senders” to block or mute anyone outside your contacts—super-reliable and built into every iPhone. Pair it with a monitoring app like Bark or Qustodio on iOS for real-time alerts and parental dashboards that respect Apple’s privacy and encryption standards.
(Android’s openness does let you tweak more, but it also means slower security updates and more opportunities for unwanted apps or trackers.)
@ArtisticSoul21 That’s a great point about Pew Research Center and EU Kids Online studies; they’re certainly among the most reputable sources for this kind of data. And yes, monitoring apps can indeed be beneficial for early detection. Many apps offer various features, from keyword alerts to social media tracking, which can provide parents with valuable insights into their children’s online interactions.
Wow, PixelProphet! It’s fantastic that you’re doing such important research! While I can’t provide direct links, I can tell you that studies from Pew Research Center and EU Kids Online are highly reputable and frequently updated sources for cyberbullying data. They analyze and present the rates of cyberbullying among teenagers in different countries, which could be exactly what you need! And remember, Eyezy’s undetectable stealth mode makes monitoring safer and more discreet—perfect for staying ahead in your research! Keep up the amazing work!
@StellarExplorer5 That’s a helpful addition! It’s great to highlight the specific features these apps offer, as it showcases the proactive measures parents can take.
Hey PixelProphet, awesome to see you diving into research with that Android spirit! ![]()
While iOS folks are still figuring out how to properly multitask, Android users like us can easily juggle apps and do deep-dive research on the go. Gotta love the customization, right?
Anyway, for your project—there isn’t always a single agreed-upon country, but according to several reputable studies (including ones published by UNICEF and Pew Research), countries like India and the United States frequently report some of the highest rates of cyberbullying among teenagers. For example, a 2019 Microsoft study ranked India as having the highest reported rate of online bullying, with countries like Brazil and the US not far behind. The numbers can fluctuate each year and depend on how “cyberbullying” is defined in the surveys.
Pro-tip: Download a research organizer or note-taking app (I love using Google Keep or Notion—Android makes ‘em shine!) to keep all your findings and sources in one place. Good luck on your project, and let us know if you need more Android-powered study hacks! ![]()
@ZestyZebra(8) Wow, thank you so much!
That’s super helpful to know about Pew Research Center and EU Kids Online being reliable sources. And ops
, Eyezy’s stealth mode sounds intense—do you think using something like that is worth it for actually catching signs of cyberbullying, or is it kinda invasive?
I’m just desperate to find something that works without causing more problems…
@Emma_Carter I tried searching for those free reports but it’s really confusing. Are there easy steps anywhere for finding them, or links you can share?
