Q

who started online racial discrimination research?

A

Brendesha Tynes

first tried to understand racial landscape that teens navigate online

created ONLINE VICTIMIZATION SCALE

more time teens spend online, more racism they experience, more externalizing behaviours they exhibit

less likely to exhibit externalizing behaviour if they explore their identity

there are state/national programs addressing cyberbullying, but none focus on racial behaviours

need to study protective factors

offline bullying

predicts greater later online bullying, and more time spent online

A

online trauma experience leads to PTSD symptoms

moderated by IMT

specifically, online trauma exposure WASN’T associated with greater PTSD ONLY for people who reported ENDORSED IMT at 4.48/6 or higher

60
Q

A

IMT (inclusive media and technology)

for people high in IMT, the more online racial trauma they experienced wasn’t associated with more traditional PTSD symptoms

61
Q

Volpe et al - Liberatory Media Literacy as protective against posttraumatic stress for emerging adults of colour - SUMMARY

A
  1. online racial trauma exposure is fairly common (few times a year - few times a month)
