Abstract

This study examines the dimension of cyberbullying in a workplace setting by looking at the perspective of online faculty in a for-profit online university with regard to the experience of cyberbullying from students. This study also adds to the literature by examining cyberbullying in a workplace as well as in higher education, with a focus on faculty demographics to include gender, age, and years of online teaching experience. The issue of how management can utilize this information to appropriately address cyberbullying in this type of workplace setting is discussed based on the data gathered.
