Daphne III Revision of the Daphne II questionnaire
Main problems • Unbalanceamong the differentsectionsof the questionnaire • Traditionalbullyingless complete thancyberbullying • Unbalance in the numberofitemsconcerning the differentroles • Manyquestionsfor the victims and the bystanders, only 1 for the bully!
Ambiguous formulations in some items • E.g. in the list of feelings, behaviors mixed with emotions • Too long and repetitive the parts concerning the participant roles behavior (in cyberbullying sections) • Bystander with bully • Bystander with victim • Bystander alone
No “filterquestions”: • the “I didnotwasa…” item appearsmanytimes and thisincreasesmistakes. • Toofewquestionsregardingpossible IV • Arbitraryreductionof the Loneliness scale and SEQ whichreducedvalidityof the constructs • School clima: • threepointsforevaluations don’t allowinferentialstatistics.
Theoretical problems • Howtoexplore the possible link betweenindirectbullying and cyberbullying? • Howtoexplore the mixeduseof mobile/internet, since the smartphones are noweasilyconnectedto internet? • Howtodifferentiatebetweenformswhich include a public denigrationfromother electronic formsofharrassmentwhich don’t include thischaracteristic?
Aims for a revision • To reduce the number of errors by making the questionnaire easier and more “immediate”: • Insert filter questions • Reformulate ambiguous items • Reduce the number of questions
To increase the validity of measures • Re-balance the number of questions for each section; • Re-balance the number of questions for each role • Design more homogeneous questions for comparing the answers for each role
More…. • Adopt the reduced (not the reduced-reduced) scale for LLCA and SEQ as validated by Melotti. • In the school clima: adopt a 5 points Likert scale.
