Abstract

Cyber bullying and internet trolling are forms of online aggression that have become increasingly prevalent. Research indicates that individuals engaging in these behaviors often exhibit low self-esteem, low conscientiousness, and low internal moral values (Zezulka & Seigfried-Spellar, 2016).Trolling has been associated with personality traits such as psychopathy, narcissism, and sadism (Aydın et al., n.d.). Studies have found a significant relationship between offline aggression and online trolling behavior, suggesting that aggressive individuals tend to maintain their aggression in online spaces (Strimbu & O'Connell, 2021). However, there are inconsistencies between offline and online self-presentation for highly aggressive individuals. Detecting cyber bullying and aggression on social media platforms like Twitter is possible through machine learning algorithms that analyze text, user, and network-based attributes.
