description The objective of this research is to analyze cyber-victimization in school adolescents, through a descriptive study in a sample of 656 elementary and middle school students from a Colombian educational institution, to whom the Questionnaire on Cyber-victimization in High School Students was applied. The results show that 63.41% of the students state that they have suffered cyber-victimization, occurring to a greater extent in those who do not identify with either of the two genders, followed by the male and female genders, respectively. Regarding the types of cyber-victimization, the sexual one is presented to a greater extent, suffered mainly by girls, followed by online exclusion, present mostly in boys, and verbal-written cyber-victimization, which is presented to the same extent in both genders. It is concluded that it is necessary to establish strategies that contribute to improving coexistence in virtual spaces frequented by Colombian schoolchildren.

Esta investigación tiene como objetivo analizar la cibervictimización en adolescentes escolarizados, por medio de un estudio descriptivo en una muestra de 656 estudiantes de básica secundaria y media de una institución educativa colombiana, a quienes se les aplicó el Cuestionario de Cibervictimización en Estudiantes de Secundaria. Los resultados evidencian que el 63,41% de los estudiantes manifiestan haber sufrido de cibervictimización, presentándose en mayor medida en quienes no se identifican con ninguno de los dos géneros, seguido de los géneros masculino y femenino, respectivamente. En cuanto a los tipos de cibervictimización, se presenta en mayor medida la relacional sexual, sufrida principalmente por niñas, seguida de la exclusión online, presente mayormente en los niños, y la cibervictimización verbal-escrita, la cual se presenta en la misma medida en los dos géneros. Se concluye que es necesario establecer estrategias que contribuyan a mejorar la convivencia en espacios virtuales frecuentados por los escolares colombianos.
