Cyber Dating Abuse

I am interested in the understudied area of Cyber Dating Abuse (CDA), which describes abuse in romantic relationships perpetrated by means of information technologies. This form of abuse has risen over the years due to the increasing development of technology around the world. My PhD will focus on factors relating to CDA and the different platforms and groups involved in the hopes of gaining a better understanding of this form of abuse.
