REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES
Related Literature
In the book entitled "Cyberbullying: Understand, Prevent, and
Respond: Guidance for Schools " by Childnet International (2020), they argued that bullying can have serious consequences for everyone involved, including the victim, the aggressor, and anyone else who witnesses the bullying (bystanders). Bullying more than doubles one's chances of developing depression later in life. If you bully others, you are more likely to develop depression. Bullying has been linked to negative long-term effects on social, economic, mental, and physical health. Childhood bullying can have long-term consequences. This literature will aid the proponent's research by providing information on the risks associated with bullying. Gardner, W.

According to the book "Cyberbullying Across the Globe: Gender,
Family, and Mental Health" by Navarro, R., Yubero, S., & Larrañaga, E. (2016, August 23), they argued that cyberbullying has numerous negative short- and long-term consequences. Furthermore, there is a link between increased tobacco, alcohol, and drug use and victimization and perpetration of cyberbullying. A small body of research has found that the victim's gender can influence how bullying affects them. In their meta-analysis, Kowalski et al. (2014) discovered, for example, that sex mitigated the association between cyber victimization and depression. The relationship between cyberbullying and depression was stronger in samples with a higher proportion of females. According to a related study by Brown et al. (2014), bullying victimization had a greater negative impact on girls than on boys. This is advantageous to the researchers because it will provide information on the effects of cyberbullying as well as who the most common targets of bullying are.

In accordance with the book "Impacts of Cyberbullying, Building
Social and Emotional Resilience in Schools" by Chadwick, S. (2014, January 13), he argued that cyberbullying has also been linked to depressive disorders, suicidal ideation, and suicide attempts. It is becoming increasingly clear that bullying behaviors increase the risk of suicidal thinking and/or behavior in a wide range of young people. Students who engage in or are victims of bullying frequently experience depressive symptoms, suicidal thoughts, and attempts. Victimization and cyberbullying harm the system as a whole. The instinct of a social group is to survive. Unseen forces at work within the peer group motivate both those who bully and those who are bullied online to continue doing so. This literature will help the proponent's study by providing insight into the relationship between the effects of cyberbullying and mental health. Chadwick, S. (2014, January 13).
