Read the article https://doi.org/10.2105/
AJPH.2011.300608
Find one youtube video of a media interview or
news coverage of a traumatic event that relates
somehow to the article you selected
Considering relationships, and the intersection
of publicity around trauma and how that can
influence how we think about ourselves, and
how we think others will think of us, come up
with three to four questions that you have, that
would connect to your article and/or video
"Copy cat effect" is when others engage in a
similar behavior, and in terms of the media, it
can be because the individual who copies the
behavior identifies with the individual who was
publicized. Do you think that the "right to know"
should ever be blocked, in order to prevent
similar tragedies (e.g. an increase in suicides
after a popular icon dies; school shootings;
terrorist acts).

The article I decided to read was about how social media can influence suicide ideation. Activities on the Internet
such as cyber bullying has led people to commit suicide. Those who cyber bully resort to using threats, harassing their
victims, and embarrassing their victims via cellphones on the Internet (Luxton et al., 2012). It was reported in a study from
2004-2010, that about 40.6% users of the Internet had been cyberbullied (Luxton et al., 2012). This growing problem
effects people of all ages, but specifically school aged children. In a study conducted on 2,000 middle schoolers, they found
that those who were cyber bullied, were 2 times more likely to attempt suicide compared to those who did not experience
cyberbullying (Luxton et al., 2012). With the video I picked this week, it proves the claims made the article I selected.
The video I selected this week gives viewers the definition of cyberbullying and how it effects victims. In the video
they give an example of how a girl named Maddie took a screenshot of her classmate's, Shonda, picture. Maddie decided
to change to picture to make it look like Shonda was a monster. Maddie then proceeded to send the picture in a group
chat along with hurtful words, and several others decided to comment hurtful things. The picture soon was shared with
others at the school (StopBullying Gov, 2022). This hurt Shonda severely. What this video shows is that cyberbullying hurts
people and has serious consequences. The literature and the video that a watched both describe what social media can
do to others. Although social media can be beneficial in many ways, it can harm others.
Questions:
Example
• In the video and article, it talks about how school aged children are often cyberbullies and/or
cyberbullied. What do you think parents can do to protect their children from being cyberbullied?
• A lot of apps have age restrictions on who can have their apps. Do you think that they do this
because of cyberbullying or another reason? What is that other reason?
• Can you think of any other negative consequence of being cyberbullied other than suicide
ideation.
. In the video it talks about what to do if you find yourself being cyberbullied. Can you think of a time
where you were cyberbullied? What were your thoughts and emotions? What did you do to heal
from the situation?
