The present study explores the connection between bullying and anxiety among university students aged 18 to 22. Utilizing a convenience sample of one hundred students, the intensity of bullying and anxiety levels were measured using the Perception of Teasing Scale (POTS) and the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A), respectively. Using correlation and regression analyses to decipher the data, it was discovered that bullying significantly predicts anxiety among this demographic. Notably, the study also revealed that female university students experience higher levels of anxiety related to bullying compared to their male counterparts. Further research is recommended to explore interventions and strategies to counteract bullying and its associated anxiety within university settings.
