Abstract

Anger is a powerful emotion shared by victims and bullies in both physical and electronic forms of bul- lying. However, little is known about the specific roles of trait anger and state anger in involvement in bullying episodes. The purpose of this study was to verify which component of anger, trait or state, is more strongly related to physical and cyberbullying and victimization. Students between the ages 11–19 (N = 716, 392 female, 324 male) completed the state trait anger expression inventory-2 child and adolescent and a measure of victimization and bully- ing. Results for cyberbullying suggested a major vulnera- bility among bullies and victims to experience anger as a personality trait as well some links between state anger, cyberbullying and cybervictimization.
