520 | |a Digital revolution is neither a utopia nor a dystopia instead it is defined by the means of its use. Ongoing revolution has brought uncountable benefits but simultaneously has opened avenues for various cybercrimes such as cyberbullying victimisation. The existing literature, considered to be in its infancy, has mostly focused on establishing definitions and measuring instruments. Whereas, research concerning outcomes of or protective factors against cyberbullying victimisation is highly sparse such that there are no such studies investigating the role of coping in relation to cyberbullying victimisation and suicidal ideation. Therefore, the present study uniquely contributes in exploring these variables by using a mixed method design. It investigates quantitatively 1) the relationship between cyberbullying victimisation and suicidal ideation; 2) the moderating role of coping in the afore-mentioned relationship; and qualitatively 3) the relation between cyberbullying victimisation and suicidal ideation; and 4) the various coping strategies used in response to cyberbullying victimisation. Specifically, this study involved a cross-sectional survey with a sample of 296 participants resulting in data which was analysed using Pearson correlation coefficient, hierarchical multiple regression, and simple slopes test. Equally, two focused-group interviews were conducted involving a sample of 12 participants where data was analysed through thematic analysis. The quantitative results revealed a significant positive correlation between cyberbullying victimisation and suicidal ideation. Moreover, coping strategies (such as close support, retaliation, active ignoring, helplessness or self-blame, and technical coping) moderated the afore-mentioned relationship. These results were supplemented by qualitative findings which also reported themes depicting links between cyberbullying victimisation and suicidal ideation, and data emerged with following coping strategies used in response to cyberbullying victimisation: distal advice, close support, retaliation, assertiveness, active ignoring, helplessness/self-blame, and technical coping. The present study has implications for multiple stakeholders, such as education providers, health care providers, general masses, and researchers. | ||
