The empirical material consists of quantitative surveys with qualitative complements in form of focus groups. The surveys were responded by 126 youths in the age of 12-16 years, from the school Enskilda Gymnasiet in Stockholm. We have tried to relate the different parts of cyber bullying, in terms of causes and consequences. The elements of social media, mental health and the liability issue have been analyzed in order to achieve a relevant result. We show that information is essential to prevent cyber bullying and that there are three major operators that the youngsters have confidence in; school, parents and the police. Our analysis indicates that there is a cavity in the spread of information and therefore highlights the importance of communication. The result leads us to the question of liability and who it is that parents today's youth. Our study highlights the importance of strategic communication and therefore points to the importance of teaching students from an early age about online ethics, to help them understand what consequences cyber bullying can lead to. The study has resulted in a number of suggestions for improvement regarding the liability question and cyber bullying, which shows that the school should be the primary source of information. Building on this a strategic communication plan for schools should be developed to clarify the information that should be informed. (Less)

- Denna uppsats syftar till att öka förståelsen för näthat och dess spridning bland ungdomar i åldern 12-16 år. I denna studie konkretiseras och definieras fenomenet näthat för att skapa en djupare förståelse av ämnet. Utifrån tidigare forskning har två huvudsakliga aspekter lyfts fram - ansvar och kommunikation Studien syftar till att konkretisera vem som bär ansvar att informera om näthat och lyfta fram hur strategisk kommunikation kan förebygga näthat och dess konsekvenser. Dessa två aspekter har lyfts fram då vi anser att det finns en avsaknad av detta i den befintliga forskningen och vi vill genom vår studie bidra med ett komplement. Studien tar avstamp i tidigare forskning och utvecklas därifrån genom en kvantitativ enkätundersökning... (More)
- Denna uppsats syftar till att öka förståelsen för näthat och dess spridning bland ungdomar i åldern 12-16 år. I denna studie konkretiseras och definieras fenomenet näthat för att skapa en djupare förståelse av ämnet. Utifrån tidigare forskning har två huvudsakliga aspekter lyfts fram - ansvar och kommunikation Studien syftar till att konkretisera vem som bär ansvar att informera om näthat och lyfta fram hur strategisk kommunikation kan förebygga näthat och dess konsekvenser. Dessa två aspekter har lyfts fram då vi anser att det finns en avsaknad av detta i den befintliga forskningen och vi vill genom vår studie bidra med ett komplement. Studien tar avstamp i tidigare forskning och utvecklas därifrån genom en kvantitativ enkätundersökning med kvalitativa komplement. Enkäten genomfördes av 126 elever från skolan Enskilda Gymnasiet, en högstadie- och gymnasieskola i Stockholm, och resultatet av den belyste än mer de två kritiska punkterna ansvar och kommunikation. De olika delarna sociala medier, psykisk ohälsa och ansvarsfrågan har analyserats och återkopplats till tidigare forskning, allt för att lyckas uppnå ett relevant och trovärdigt resultat. Analysen visar sedermera på det hålrum som finns i spridningen av information kring näthat och understryker därmed vikten av att definiera vem/vilka aktörer som bär ansvaret att föra den strategiska kommunikationen. Utifrån det empiriska materialet har tre huvudsakliga aktörer tagits fram; skolan, föräldrar och polisen. Genom vidare analys har slutsatsen framtagits som visar på att skolan bör vara den främsta kommunikativa informatören av näthat, de bör sedermera arbeta med grund i en kommunikationsplan utvecklad för just deras skola.
