Abstract

Haters easily judge and express their minds in social networks in the form of bad, hateful or rude words. These are forms of verbal aggressive behaviour which attack someone’s self-concept and can result in psychological grief. This descriptive study investigated the verbal aggressiveness of haters in social networks. Purposive sampling obtained 237 respondents who were members of an online haters community, aged 13–21 years old. They were divided into two groups: 185 respondents who self-identified as haters and 52 who did not. Results showed that 30% of both groups had high verbal aggressiveness. An additional finding showed that, in the sample studied, college girls between 19 and 21 years old scored highest in verbal aggressiveness in both groups. Keywords: Social network, Hater, Verbal aggressiveness
