Research on Youth Exposure to, and Management of, Cyberbullying Incidents in Australia. Part C: An Evidence-based Assessment of Deterrents to Youth Cyberbullying. Appendix A: Literature Review â€" International Responses to Youth Cyberbullying and Current Australian Legal Context

This literature review was designed to contribute to the evidence-base to determine if a new, simplified cyberbullying offence or a new civil enforcement regime were introduced, how such an offence or regime could be implemented, in conjunction with the existing criminal offences, to have the greatest material deterrence effect. It has drawn upon intersecting domains related to understanding the construct of cyberbullying, as embedded within the literatures of aggression and bullying; and the law as employed in international and Australian settings. This literature review supports the Part C Report: An evidence-based assessment of deterrents to youth cyberbullying.
