“…A review of literature on this topic concluded that cyberbully is prevalent on the Internet and some 11.2% to 56.9% of Chinese adolescents reported experiences of cyberbullying victimization, the second-highest median rate among nine nations surveyed in the study [31]. Similar to traditional bullying, cyberbullying as a victim via social media is founded to be closely related to a series of behavioral and psychological problems (e.g., depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, and suicidal ideation) [32,33]. Cyberbullying victimization has also been found to reduce individuals' self-esteem [34] and make them feel less inclined to engage with social media platforms and online communities [35], thus decreasing online social support from peers, friends, and family members.…”

Background A growing body of literature demonstrates that social media usage has witnessed a rapid increase in higher education and is almost ubiquitous among young people. The underlying mechanisms as to how social media usage by university students affects their well-being are unclear. Moreover, current research has produced conflicting evidence concerning the potential effects of social media on individuals' overall well-being with some reporting negative outcomes while others revealing beneficial results. Methods To address the research gap, the present research made an attempt to investigate the crucial role of social media in affecting students’ psychological (PWB) and subjective well-being (SWB) by testing the mediating role of self-esteem and online social support and the moderation effect of cyberbullying. The data in the study were obtained from a sample of 1,004 college students (483 females and 521 males, Mage = 23.78, SD = 4.06) enrolled at 135 Chinese universities. AMOS 26.0 and SPSS 26.0 as well as the Process macro were utilized for analyzing data and testing the moderated mediation model. Results Findings revealed that social media usage by university students was positively associated with their PWB and SWB through self-esteem and online social support, and cyberbullying played a moderating role in the first phase of the mediation process such that the indirect associations were weak with cyberbullying reaching high levels. Conclusion These findings highlight the importance of discerning the mechanisms moderating the mediated paths linking social media usage by young adults to their PWB and SWB. The results also underline the importance of implementing measures and interventions to alleviate the detrimental impacts of cyberbullying on young adults’ PWB and SWB.

“…In recent work, 42% of adolescents reported being called offensive names online, while 32% reported having a rumour spread about them (Pew Research Center, 2018b). Experiencing cybervictimization (i.e., intentional acts of aggression committed through means of social technologies; Álvarez‐García et al, 2017) has been connected to a plethora of adverse social, emotional, behavioural, and academic outcomes for adolescents (Marciano et al, 2020; Nixon, 2014), with cybervictimization predicting depression, suicide, and social anxiety over and above in‐person victimization (Bonanno & Hymel, 2013; van Geel & Vedder, 2020; Wigderson & Lynch, 2013).…”

“…Little research has been conducted on Pakistan's hotel industry and the effects of information and technology on employees [11] (Khan et al, 2021). The concept of WCB has started to attract researchers' attention [12][13][14] as a recently recognized risk factor in the workplace. The hotel industry has always been marked with high job demand and violence [14].…”

The hotel industry has transformed the social and official interaction and communication landscape due to information technology. This has created a new venue for bullying, known as cyberbullying. This study aims to examine the impact of workplace cyberbullying on the work engagement of hotel employees while examining the mediating role of psychological well-being and work meaningfulness using the job demand resource model and conservation of resource theory. The data (n = 470) were collected from 4-star and 5-star hotel employees in Pakistan. The results reported that psychological well-being mediates the relationship between workplace cyberbullying and work engagement. Moreover, work meaningfulness also mediates the relationship between psychological well-being and work engagement. Findings suggest that the hotel industry of Pakistan should acknowledge the presence of cyberbullying and design policies and procedures to maintain a healthy work environment for employees’ psychological well-being and ensure that hotel employees find their work meaningful.
