THE PROBLEM

Statement of the Problem

Due to the increasing prevalence of juveniles sharing inappropriate content online, such

as cyberbullying and hate speech, a critical need exists to understand the underlying factors that

contribute to this delinquent behavior. The negative consequences of such sharing can be severe,

causing emotional harm to victims and potentially leading to legal trouble for the perpetrators.

By identifying the motivations behind inappropriate content sharing, we can develop effective

strategies to promote responsible online behavior and create a safer digital environment for all.

The following questions sought to answer:

1. What are the underlying factors of juveniles expressing delinquent behaviors in the

digital world?

1.1. What are the common delinquent behaviors of juveniles in the digital world along

inappropriate content sharing?

1.2 What triggers juveniles to share inappropriate content in the digital world?

1.3 What are the experiences of juveniles when they share inappropriate content in

the digital world?

1.4. How do online interactions and peer pressure on social media platforms influence

a juvenile's propensity for delinquent behavior?

1.5. What support systems and communication strategies can help parents guide their

children towards responsible digital citizenship?


Statement of Hypothesis

Null Hypothesis (Ho): Juveniles who experience a combination of social influence online, a sense

of moral disengagement, and a lack of empathy are more likely to engage in delinquent behavior

by sharing inappropriate content in the digital world.

Alternative Hypothesis (H1): Juveniles who have strong social support networks online, a well-

developed sense of moral responsibility, and a high level of empathy are less likely to engage in

delinquent behavior by sharing inappropriate content in the digital world.

Scope and Limitation

This study will examine the underlying factors affecting the delinquent behavior of

juveniles in the digital world. It will focus on inappropriate content sharing, specifically hate

speech and cyberbullying in the digital environment, using internet access and social media,

which include Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. The study deliberately excluded other

delinquent acts and focused solely on inappropriate content sharing in the digital world. The

research was geographically limited to the students of St. Vincent’s College Incorporated Basic

Education Campus, ages 10 to 17 years old. This focused approach allows for a controlled and

manageable investigation, enhancing the validity and accuracy of the findings.
