Dr. Peter K. Smith is Emeritus Professor of Psychology at Goldsmiths College, University of London. His research interest is children’s social development. He is a Fellow of the British Psychological Society, the Association of Psychological Sciences, and the Academy of Social Sciences.
In this episode, we focus on bullying and cyberbullying. We first discuss the definition of bullying, from a developmental psychological perspective, bullying and child development, the types of bullying, bullying in infancy and adolescence, and also the personality traits that predispose children and adolescents do be either perpetrators or victims of bullying. Then, we talk about the peculiar case of cyberbullying, and in what ways it differs from traditional bullying, and also historical trends in bullying.
