Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate adolescents' individual and microsystem variables including relationships with parents and friends affecting adolescents' experiences of mobile social networking site (SNS) cyberbullying based on the human ecological perspective. Data came from 344 middle school students who lived with both their parents in the Seoul and Gyunggi areas. A multiple regression analysis showed that adolescents' characteristics, relationships with parents, and friends were associated with their experiences of mobile SNS cyberbullying. These findings suggest that good relationships with parents could be protective factors for adolescents to reduce mobile SNS cyberbullying. However, adolescents' characteristics including aggression, depression, and delinquent peers were positively associated with adolescents' experiences of mobile SNS cyberbullying. This study highlights that various environments are closely related to adolescent development.
