The objective of the research was to identify the incidence of bullying and cyberbullying in 983 students at age 10 to 15, from the sixth to the tenth grade of EGB, belonging to five educational institutions in the city of Cuenca, for which the variables of bullying and cyberbullying were crossed with age, sex and educational level of the surveyed students, visualizing the involvement of the protagonists, the typology and its manifestations. The methodology used was quantitative, with relational descriptive scope, making use of two measurement instruments: The European Bullying Intervention Project Questionnaire (EBIPQ) and the European Cyberbullying Intervention Project Questionnaire (ECIPQ), which allowed to identify the incidence and characteristics of bullying and cyberbullying. There was evidence of 28.3% of students’ victim of bullying, of them 20.7% were victim of bullying, 4.3% cyber victim and 3.4% victim of both bullying and cyberbullying. In bullying the main typology was direct verbal, while in cyberbullying its main manifestation were electronic insults and exclusion. A higher level of involvement of males was seen as victims and victimized aggressors. In terms of age, the 12- to 15-year-old students belonging respectively to the eighth, ninth and tenth grade presented a higher level of involvement as victimized cyber attackers. In conclusion, there is a greater presence of traditional school bullying and a lower incidence of cyberbullying, however, a direct relationship between the two forms of bullying seems to be present.
