The Impact of Cyber Bullying on the Psychological Well-being of University Students: A Study in Jordanian Universities

Abstract

The study examined the impact of Cyberbullying on Jordanian university students' psychological well-being. The correlational descriptive method was used with a sample of 750 male and female students from Jordanian universities. Findings revealed a low degree of cyberbullying's effect on their psychological well-being. No significant differences were found based on gender, college, cumulative GPA, or type of university. However, first-year students experienced higher levels of impact. The researcher recommended raising awareness about cyberbullying consequences, utilizing punishments as deterrents, and implementing preventive mechanisms.
