Dissocial behaviors of young people in the Internet space. Pedagogical implications

Abstract

Dissocial behaviors (known as ’conduct disorders’) understood as asocial and antisocial attitudes no longer relate to the real world only. The phenomenon of persistent dissocial behaviors imbued with disapproval, accusation, exclusion, or aggression towards peers has been increasingly frequent on the Internet. Researchers more and more often point to cyberbullying, grooming, griefing, trolling, and hate in the context of asocial phenomena marked with lack of empathy and disregard for norms and rules of social obligations. This article is an attempt to indicate and include selected areas of psychopathology into the field of media pedagogy research.
