Abstract
The present study investigated whether perceived parental rejection predicted cybervictimization during adolescence. Findings revealed that perceived parental rejection was indirectly related to reports of more cybervictimization through lower levels of agreeableness and higher levels of externalizing symptoms. Results may guide both theoretical models of cybervictimization and prevention and intervention efforts.
