Abstract

Individuals exist in both the real and the virtual worlds, and it is not always clear which sphere is more important to them. Cyberspace provides many opportunities, challenges, and risks. Virtual worlds create chances for many people to revive and carry out dangerous or malicious intentions, frustrations, or vices. While vices like gambling impact the individual seeking a risk, many are unwillingly subjected to these dangerous behaviors, including bullying, stalking, human trafficking, and more, which circulate between real and virtual worlds and present a danger for anyone in cyberspace, social networks, and virtual groups. Analyzing New Forms of Social Disorders in Modern Virtual Environments provides expert articles from the areas of psychology, sociology, technology, and security on the phenomena and interplay of virtual lives, real behavior, and subsequent peril and also provides major challenges and safety measures. Covering topics such as cyber bullying, virtual violence, and virtual terror, this book is ideal for school instructors, administrators, psychology practitioners, scientists, and police.
