WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Vulnerability to Cyberbullying, VC-22 Test

Cyberbullying Vulnerability Scale (CK-22) Test

bullying cyberpsychology

This measure screens for perceived susceptibility to online harassment and related risk factors in digital contexts. The Cyberbullying Vulnerability Scale (CK-22) is intended to support identification of individuals who may benefit from closer monitoring, preventive guidance, or supportive intervention.

The instrument includes 21 items and typically takes about 4 minutes to complete. Items query self-perceptions and behaviors in online situations where bullying may occur, generating a brief profile of vulnerability indicators that can inform clinical, educational, or research decision-making.

The Cyberbullying Vulnerability Scale (CK-22) is attributed to Peter K. Smith and Sameer Hinduja. Results should be interpreted in context and integrated with collateral information and clinical judgment rather than used as a standalone diagnostic determination.
