E-Bullying: A Threat for University Students' Social Life
Students are vital to the growth of society and nations. Universities prepare students for the real world. The study examines the threat of e-bullying to university students' social lives. The study's goal was to discover how college students perceive and use e-bullying in their daily lives. It was a descriptive study. In this survey, students from two public universities in Southern Punjab were included. The study sample was obtained by a multi-stage sampling method, and data was collected from a sample of 200 university students. A self-developed questionnaire was used to collect data from the study sample. Personal visits collected the data. The data was examined as a percentage. According to the survey, university students have more online friends than "real world" pals because they find it more manageable. The results suggest that university students want to establish a more social and polite online world.
