Abstract
- Technology advancement and increased access to the Internet have led to a social disorder called cyberbullying. This study aims to discuss the self-reported prevalence and the nature of cyberbullying among tertiary students. Learning more about the social and economic implications of this occurrence is vital. College students' perceptions of cyberbullying and the learning settings they experience there. To investigate one facet of the nuanced interaction between university students and diverse media, this literature review looks at the following studies. What possible effects might educational and social media have on college students' mental wellness and well-being? Because cyberbullying offenders break societal norms and interpersonal standards, cyberbullying can be seen as unfair and abnormal behavior. Additionally, they violate the privacy rights of those who have been victimized, who unjustly endure the negative effects of cyberbullying that endanger their mental health and ability to succeed in school. Thus, it is also essential to create awareness to reduce the occurrence of cyberbullying and put an end to it. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
