Preventive educational interventions may improve knowledge, awareness, and sensibility, thereby reducing mental health burden.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Aim:<\/jats:title>\n To evaluate the effectiveness of a contemplated nursing intervention on knowledge, awareness, and sensibility regarding cyberbullying and its mental health consequences among adolescents.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods:<\/jats:title>\n \n A true experimental design was conducted among 20 adolescents (13\u201317 years) in selected schools in Coimbatore, India. Participants were randomly assigned to experimental (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 10) and control (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 10) groups, each subdivided to minimize contamination. Pre- and post-tests were administered using standardized tools. The experimental group received an eight-week nursing intervention involving mobile-based modules and vignette discussions. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.05).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n \n Post-intervention, the experimental group showed significant improvements in knowledge (mean difference 6.3), awareness (16.6), and sensibility (6.3), with all participants achieving adequate or high levels. Control groups showed minimal change. Significant inter-group differences were observed (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.05). No association was found between pre-test scores and demographic variables. Participants also demonstrated improved understanding of psychological consequences and treatment options, including counseling and Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n The intervention effectively enhanced adolescents\u2019 understanding of cyberbullying and its mental health impact. Such programs may reduce psychological morbidity and future reliance on pharmacological management. Larger studies are recommended.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/jpbs.jpbs_76_26","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,10]],"date-time":"2026-07-10T22:02:50Z","timestamp":1783720970000},"page":"212-214","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Effectiveness of a Contemplated Nursing Intervention on Knowledge, Awareness, and Sensibility of Cyberbullying and Its Mental Health Consequences with Implications for Psychopharmacological Management Among Adolescents: A Pilot Study"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"R","family":"Anisha","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Community Health Nursing, Nightingale Institute of Nursing Education, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"P","family":"Padmavathi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecological Nursing, Dhanvantri College of Nursing, Namakkal, Tamil Nadu, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"P","family":"Jayanthi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychiatric Nursing, Venkateswara Nursing College, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"R1-20260713","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"23","DOI":"10.24191\/jcrinn.v2i4.59","article-title":"Developing Cyber-bullying Knowledge and Awareness Instrument (CBKAi) to Measure Knowledge and Perceived Awareness Towards Cyber-bullying among Adolescents","volume":"2","author":"Abdul","year":"2017","journal-title":"J Comput Res Innov"},{"key":"R2-20260713","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"708","DOI":"10.1177\/1461444813511923","article-title":"Sensibility Development Program against Cyberbullying","volume":"17","author":"Tanr\u0131kulu","year":"2015","journal-title":"New Media Soc"},{"key":"R3-20260713","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"13","DOI":"10.3390\/socsci8010013","article-title":"Psychometric Properties of the CYBVICS Cyber-Victimization Scale and Its Relationship with Psychosocial Variables","volume":"8","author":"Buelga","year":"2019","journal-title":"Soc Sci"},{"key":"R4-20260713","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e84","DOI":"10.1016\/j.pedn.2018.11.006","article-title":"Cyber bullying experiences of adolescents and parental awareness: Turkish example","volume":"44","author":"Uludasdemir","year":"2019","journal-title":"J Pediatr Nurs"},{"key":"R5-20260713","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"194","DOI":"10.1002\/ab.21636","article-title":"Evidence-based intervention against bullying and cyberbullying: Evaluation of the NoTrap!program in two independent trials","volume":"42","author":"Palladino","year":"2016","journal-title":"Aggress Behav"},{"key":"R6-20260713","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"634909","DOI":"10.3389\/fpubh.2021.634909","article-title":"Cyberbullying among adolescents and children: A comprehensive review of the global situation, risk factors, and preventive measures","volume":"9","author":"Zhu","year":"2021","journal-title":"Front Public Health"}],"container-title":["Journal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.lww.com\/10.4103\/jpbs.jpbs_76_26","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,13]],"date-time":"2026-07-13T15:00:39Z","timestamp":1783954839000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.lww.com\/10.4103\/jpbs.jpbs_76_26"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026,7]]},"references-count":6,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4103\/jpbs.jpbs_76_26","relation":{},"ISSN":["0976-4879","0975-7406"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0976-4879","type":"print"},{"value":"0975-7406","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026,7]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2026-02-27","name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2026-04-10","name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
