Abstract | Trolling and cyberbullying are predominant behaviors in an internet culture often motivated by a desire to create discord or distress. Despite significant effort, the verbal, psychological, and emotional abuse spurred by individuals who troll or cyberbully is impossible to fully monitor and control. In addition, psychological interventions for distress caused by these negative online interactions are limited, leaving victims struggling to find coping mechanisms for traumatic, yet intangible, encounters. Given society's increasing use of the internet for social interaction, this negative affect merits exploration of an effective therapeutic intervention specifically for online harassment. This study used a single-case experimental design to examine a functional relation between a brief psychoeducational workshop and three adult participants' feelings of internet-related anxiety and empowerment. Results indicate that this workshop may beneficial for victims of trolling and cyberbullying, particularly for web forum moderators. Possible implications include the development of a digital K-12 schoolbased intervention for primary and secondary school-aged students that restores positive affect from online harassment and fortifies them against future attacks. This may be particularly helpful for children and adolescents who meet criteria for mental health or learning disabilities that already leave them at risk for anxiety, depression, and interpersonal difficulties.
