The mediating role of cyber victimization in the effect of perceived social support on cyberbullying in university students
Social support is an important factor in reducing cyberbullying; however, cyber victimization reduces this positive effect. It is recommended to carry out studies that will activate the social support resources of university students, to increase the activities that will support social relations in universities, to support people who have experienced cyber victimization to share their experiences and to receive psychological help when necessary.
