Objective. The study of bullying has been investigated for more than 40 years leading the way towards new forms of violence such as cyberbullying. The evidence reveals a certain overlap between the participating pupils of both phenomena. However, continuity in roles that make up these dynamics seems not to have found a consensus. Therefore, the work presented aims to advance in the knowledge about the system that models the relationship among those who form part of both phenomena. Method. The Questionnaire for Research on School Violence in Andalusia (CIVEA) was used to interview 1278 students of primary school (grades 5^o and 6^o) which identified the phenomena and the roles of participation in each of them. Results. The chi-square and correlational analyzes indicate the existence of a 28.9% of students involved in bullying and cyberbullying pointing to an exchange of roles. Conclusion. The results show a high percentage of students involved in bullying and cyberbullying but with differences in the roles developed in each phenomenon. The explicative value of a phenomenon over another must be emphasized.

Keywords : Bullying; cyberbullying; roles; prevalence.
