Content analysis is used to assess the data carefully and organize the information to provide clear understanding on how well to defend individuals and systems against cyber threats or attacks.
CONCEPTS FROM POWERPOINT PRESENTATIONS
The research study uses some ideas from the PowerPoint slides, including human factors, psychological theories, and the role of disadvantaged groups. Understanding human factors in cybersecurity, for instance, means using psychological ideas to make better security policies and systems. The psychological theories of cyber offending such as Psychodynamic, cognitive, and behavioral theories try to explain why people commit cybercrime. The challenges of marginalized group are also highlighted indicating the need for diversity in cybersecurity study and practice.
MARGINALIZED GROUPS AND CYBERSECURITY
Cybercrime like gender based cyberviolence often affects the marginalized and vulnerable groups in society, who don’t have means to avoid online dangers and how to get legitimate help. Some of these challenges are outlined in the article, as a major social issue that demands comprehensive measures to fight against cyber risks or attacks, to offer protection, safety and fair justice for everyone.

ARTICLE REVIEW #2: CYBERBULLYING ON SOCIAL MEDIA: DEFINITIONS, PREVALENCE AND IMPACT CHALLENGES.
The article “Cyberbullying on Social Media: Definitions, Prevalence and Impact Challenges” systematically reviews the existing literature on cyberbullying to provide a clearer understanding of its definitions, prevalence and impact. This topic is deeply intertwined with the principles of social sciences, particularly sociology and psychology, as it examines how social interactions and individual behaviors are influenced by digital environments.
PRINCIPLES OF SOCIAL SCIENCES
Cyberbullying is a social problem that shows bigger problems in society, like how power works, what the rules are, and how technology changes how people act. Sociology helps us understand how social groups are put together and how relationships within these groups can lead to bad things like cyberbullying. Psychological research, on the other hand, helps us understand how cyberbullying affects people and their mental health.
QUESTIONS OR HYPOTHESES FOR RESEARCH
The study’s main goals were to answer the following questions:
1. What does the research say about cyberbullying?
2. What makes harassment happen, and how can you measure it?
3. Why do certain personality traits increase cyberbullying risk?
4. How do direct and indirect situations with cyberbullying affect how common it is?
5. What are the effects of harassment on individuals and what steps can we take to mitigate them?
RESEARCH METHOD USED
The study utilized a systematic review methodology, following the guidelines of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). This involved comprehensive search of relevant literature across multiple databases, including Scopus, Google scholar, and Science Direct. The inclusion criteria were broad, encompassing various types of papers such as empirical studies, case studies and theoretical papers. The review analyzed 71 articles published between 2007 and 2022.
TYPES OF DATA AND ANALYSES
The data extracted from the selected articles included author(s), year of publication, region, sample type, journal, article type and methods. Descriptive statistics and Meta-Analysis were used to summarize the findings. The study highlighted inconsistencies in the definitions of cyberbullying, the prevalence rate, and the impact on mental health. It also identified gaps in research, particularly the under exploration of cyberbullying among adult populations.
CONCEPTS FROM POWERPOINT PRESENTATIONS
The article relates to several concepts discussed in the PowerPoint presentations, such as the influence of social norms and values on cybersecurity practices. It also touches on the role of different subcultures within the cybersecurity community, including the hacker subculture and the professional cybersecurity subculture. The study’s focus on personality traits aligns with the discussions on the psychological aspects of cybersecurity.
CHALLENGES, CONCERNS, AND CONTRIBUTIONS OF THE MARGINALIZED GROUP
The article addresses challenges faced by the marginalized group, especially the adolescents and young adults, who are most at risk of cyberbullying. It highlights the highest victimization rates among females, and the different impacts of mental health for male and female victims. The study calls for more research on cyberbullying among adults and the development of effective prevention and intervention strategies.
OVERALL CONTRIBUTIONS TO SOCIETY
The study makes significant contributions to society by providing a comprehensive synthesis of the current understanding of cyberbullying. It proposes a standardized definition of cyberbullying, which can help unify future research and policy-making efforts. By identifying gaps in the literature, the study sets the stage for more targeted and cohesive future research. It also emphasizes the need for effective interventions to mitigate the negative impacts of cyberbullying on mental health and well-being.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, the article “Cyberbullying on Social Media: Definitions, Prevalence and Impact Challenges” offers a valuable insight into the complex phenomenon of cyberbullying.
