Summary/Abstract: The present study sets up to investigate possible changes in the manner of manifesting violence involving middle school and high school students in Suceava county. Taking into consideration the tremendous impact of social networks on establishing means of communication and of free time, it is inevitable for the cybernetic environment to be a place where certain forms of violence can manifest themselves. By applying a questionnaire adapted by A.N.Grigore (2016) and used on the Romanian school population, we have proposed to investigate the incidence of the cyberbullying phenomenon in middle schools and high schools from Suceava county. Once finished, the study confirms cyberbullying isn’t a pseudo phenomenon, which justifies the need for nonformal education and school counselling programs to take into cyberbullying into account, as a form of violence in which students might be involved.
