The Effectiveness of an AI-Supported Cyberbullying Awareness Program on Adolescents' Cyberbullying
With the increasing prevalence of cyberbullying among adolescents today, there is a greater focus on interventions targeting cyberbullying. In Turkey, cyberbullying awareness programs developed in collaboration between the Ministry of National Education (MEB) Directorate General of Special Education and Guidance Services and the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) are being used. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the cyberbullying awareness program developed by the MEB by enriching it with AI-supported content.

About this study
With the advancement of technology, most adolescents can easily access online environments for various purposes such as communicating with others, playing games, searching for information, and socializing. Although this development offers adolescents many opportunities, it can also cause them to encounter some difficult situations. One of these difficulties is cyberbullying, which adolescents encounter in online environments. This research is important because it aims to increase adolescents' awareness of cyberbullying and examine the reduction of cyberbullying behaviors among adolescents using an awareness program enriched with AI-supported content.

Primary outcomes
-
Revised Cyber Bullying Inventory-II (RCBI-II)
Time frame: baseline, within 1 minute after the fourth session, within 1 minute post-test, and 3 months follow-up
The Revised Cyberbullying Inventory-II (RCBI-II), revised by Topçu and Erdur-Baker (2017), assesses the levels of cyberbullying behaviors among adolescents. The RCBI-II consists of two forms: cyberbullying perpetration and cyberbullying victimization, with each form comprising 10 items. Items are rated on a four-point scale ranging from 1 (It has never happened to me) to 4 (It happened more than five times). High scores on the forms indicate high levels of cyberbullying victimization and perpetration.
