Overview

Longitudinal analysis highlights associations among cyberbullying victimization, depressive symptoms, and gender differences in adolescents.

Key Points

  • Within-person increases in cyberbullying victimization led to higher depressive symptoms, indicating a vicious cycle.
  • Analyses revealed that increases in depressive symptoms predicted both NSSI and further cyberbullying victimization among adolescents.
  • Nonsuicidal self-injury did not predict subsequent changes in depression or cyberbullying victimization, suggesting complex interactions.
  • Gender differences were noted, with depressive symptoms contributing more significantly to cyberbullying victimization in boys.
