Abstract

Cyberbullying presents a significant mental health concern on a national scale, particularly among young adults who are native to the digital world. This study explores the intricate dynamics between cyberbullying encounters, sleep quality, and sleep-related impairments among individuals aged 18 to 25. Considering the prevalence of cyberbullying and its negative effects, understanding its nuanced impacts on sleep health becomes imperative. This study used a cross-sectional design with a convenience sample of 105 participants, and quantitative methods were used for data analysis. Logistic regression, multivariate tests, correlation analysis, and moderated mediation analysis were employed to unravel the complex interplay between cyberbullying, demographic factors, and sleep outcomes. Gender and education level were found to be significant predictors of cyberbullying incidents, revealing demographic disparities in victimization. Additionally, sleep quality played a vital role as a mediator in the association between cyberbullying and sleep-related impairments, highlighting the interconnected nature of these variables. Various forms of cyberbullying showed nuanced impacts on both sleep quality and associated impairments, emphasizing the importance of personalized interventions. These results underscore the importance of holistic strategies that incorporate demographic factors and sleep-focused interventions to protect the health and well-being of individuals impacted by cyberbullying.
