Abstract:The relationship between perceived social support and likelihood of engaging in cyberbullying has been explored to a degree in the literature. However, there is to date a lack of clarity about factors which may moderate this relationship, and there is a need to summarize and synthesize the available evidence. Accordingly, a literature search to identify key papers examining this relationship was undertaken, followed by a meta-analysis across the 31 identified studies utilizing a random-effects model. The results indicated a significant negative correlation between perceived social support, and also its subtypes, with cyberbullying. Notably, of the various subtypes of perceived social support, perceived family support demonstrated the strongest negative correlation with cyberbullying. Furthermore, cultural background moderated the relationship between the overall construct of perceived social support and cyberbullying - specifically, the relationship between perceived social support and cyberbullying is stronger in cultures with lower individualistic tendencies compared to those with higher individualistic tendencies. Additionally, moral disengagement partially mediated the relationship between perceived social support and cyberbullying. Our findings provide inspiration for the development of cyberbullying prevention strategies based on a social support perspective.
