The research indicates that cyberbullying, along with family income, collectively explains more than 60% of the variation in mental health. These results underscore the importance of developing strategies to address cyberbullying and taking socioeconomic factors into account when addressing mental health issues in adolescents.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n <\/jats:list>\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n What are the Implications of This New Knowledge for Nursing Care with Adolescents?<\/jats:title>\n \n \n \n School nurses should be knowledgeable about the prevalence and effects of cyberbullying on the mental well\u2010being of teenagers. They need to be equipped to recognize signs of cyberbullying and associated mental health issues, such as anxiety, depression, and stress.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n Educating adolescents, parents, and school staff about the dangers of cyberbullying and prevention methods is a crucial role that school nurses can play. This may involve teaching safe internet usage, promoting open communication about online experiences, and encouraging positive online behaviour.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n When evaluating mental health needs and planning care for adolescents, school nurses should consider their economic status. They should advocate for resources and assistance for low\u2010income families to help alleviate the impact of financial stress on mental health.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n <\/jats:list>\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n How Could the Findings Influence Policy, Practice, Research, or Education?<\/jats:title>\n \n \n \n It is important to introduce policies that provide financial support to families with lower incomes, as the research has shown a strong connection between a family's monthly income and its members' mental well\u2010being.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n Educational institutions, including schools, should introduce programs to prevent bullying, with a specific focus on cyberbullying.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n It would be beneficial for researchers to explore the effectiveness of various interventions in reducing cyberbullying and improving mental health outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n It is crucial to integrate education on cyberbullying into school curricula in order to raise awareness about this issue and to teach students how to respond if they or someone they know becomes a victim of cyberbullying.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n Educating parents and teachers about the indicators of cyberbullying and its potential impact on mental health is important so that they can offer support to adolescents who are experiencing cyberbullying.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n Further research is needed to address other covariates that could impact cyberbullying, such as addictive personality traits, impulsive seeking behaviours, and parenting styles.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n <\/jats:list>\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Abstract<\/jats:title>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Background<\/jats:title>\n Cyberbullying, a significant concern in today's digital age, has a profound impact on teenagers' mental health, leading to stress, depression, anxiety, low self\u2010esteem, and, in severe cases, suicidal ideation. This study aimed to explore the effects of cyberbullying on adolescents' mental health.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n The study employed a cross\u2010sectional descriptive research design conducted at five public secondary schools in El\u2010Beheira governorate, Egypt. A total of 500 students were selected through a multistage sampling technique, yielding a response rate of 96%. The instruments used for data collection were the European Cyberbullying Intervention Project Questionnaire and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale\u201021.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n The findings revealed that 27.4% and 32.0% of respondents reported high levels of victimization and cyberaggression, respectively. Furthermore, 72.2%, 44%, and 52.6% of students exhibited severe to extremely severe levels of anxiety, stress, and depression, respectively. The study also found that cyberbullying and family monthly income accounted for 61.6% of the variance in stress, anxiety, and depressive symptoms (adjusted\n R<\/jats:italic>\n 2<\/jats:sup>\n \u2009=\u2009.614).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n The study concludes that cyberbullying is a prevalent issue among adolescents in Egypt, with a majority of students experiencing moderate to high levels of cybervictimization and aggression. This leads to varying degrees of anxiety, stress, and depression. The study also established a significant relationship between cyberbullying and mental health issues among adolescents. Moreover, both cyberbullying and family monthly income were found to significantly influence mental health, with higher levels of cyberbullying and lower income associated with increased stress, anxiety, and depressive symptoms.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Patient or Public Contribution<\/jats:title>\n No Patient or Public Contribution.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Implications for Nursing Practice<\/jats:title>\n It is important for nurses working with adolescents to have an understanding of how common cyberbullying is and how it can affect mental health. They should receive training to be able to recognize signs of cyberbullying and mental health issues, such as anxiety, depression, and stress. Nurses can teach adolescents, parents, and school staff about its dangers and ways to prevent cyberbullying. This may involve educating adolescents on safe internet practices, promoting open communication about online experiences, and encouraging positive online behaviour. Lastly, considering the strong connection between income and mental health, nurses should also take into account the socioeconomic status of adolescents when assessing their mental health needs and planning care. They should work to secure resources and support for low\u2010income families to help alleviate the impact of financial stress on mental health. Additionally, further research is needed to address other covariates that could impact cyberbullying, such as addictive personality traits, impulsive seeking behaviours, and parenting styles.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jpm.13085","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,17]],"date-time":"2024-07-17T06:58:50Z","timestamp":1721199530000},"page":"57-70","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Nursing in the digital age: The role of nursing in addressing cyberbullying and adolescents mental health"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"32","author":[{"given":"Shaimaa Mohamed","family":"Amin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Community Health Nursing, Faculty of Nursing Damanhour University Damanhour Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marwa Ahmed El\u2010Sayed","family":"Mohamed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Community Health Nursing, Faculty of Nursing Alexandria University Alexandria Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mona","family":"Metwally El\u2010Sayed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing, Faculty of Nursing Alexandria University Alexandria Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7718-4942","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ayman Mohamed","family":"El\u2010Ashry","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing, Faculty of Nursing Alexandria University Alexandria Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_15_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.21608\/asnj.2023.221001.1628"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.21608\/jnsbu.2021.194625"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_2_15_4_1","first-page":"140","article-title":"Prevalence of depression, anxiety, and stress as measured by the depression, anxiety, and stress scale (DASS\u201042) among secondary school girls in Abha, Saudi Arabia","volume":"9","author":"Al\u2010Gelban K.
