LACUNZA, Ana B.; CONTINI, E. Norma; CABALLERO, Silvina V.  y  MEJAIL, Sergio M.. Aggression in social networks and adolescence. State of the art from a bibliometric perspective. Investig. desarro. [online]. 2019, vol.27, n.2, pp.6-32. ISSN 0121-3261.

Indexed publications (2016-2018) about Latin-American adolescents' aggressive behaviour via Internet were examined. It was a retrospective, bibliometric and descriptive analysis. The search was carried out in September 2018 on the Scopus, Redalyc, Scielo and Lilacs databases. Out of 8856 abstracts, 17 articles which met the inclusion criteria were analysed: published in Spanish, Portuguese and English, whose authors were Latin American or empirically analyzed samples of adolescents residing in Latin America. A growing production in the period analysed, particularly in instrumental and quantitative studies, was observed. The co-authorship was with inter-institutional collaboration. The greatest number of studies was found in Mexico, Colombia and Brazil. No validated tests to measure cyber-bullying in the north of Argentina were found. Associated psychopathological variables, such as suicidal behaviour, maladaptive schemas and intimate partner violence, were identified. Salutogenic variables, such as coping strategies and emotional competence, were linked. The scientific evidence showed the lack of studies on the subject.

Palabras clave : aggression; internet; cyberbullying; adolescents; bibliometry.
