“…Moreover, cybervictimization is also correlated with lower social competence, such as impulsivity and deviant behavior. Our results meet previous evidence that cybervictimization is a major mental health hazard (Ortega et al, 2012;Kubiszewski et al, 2013;Kowalski et al, 2014;Lucas-Molina et al, 2018). Most research has investigated internalizing consequences of cybervictimization among perpetrators, but little research has studied the association of externalizing behaviors with victimization except for victims becoming aggressors in turn (Ybarra and Mitchell, 2007;Fisher et al, 2016).…”

“…Cybervictimization is correlated with negative outcomes for individuals that might be persistent and lifelong. Research shows that cybervictimization is related to increased internalizing ( Lucas-Molina et al, 2018 ; Hinduja and Patchin, 2019 ) and externalizing negative behaviors and outcomes ( Katzer et al, 2009 ; Sourander et al, 2010 ; Müller et al, 2018 ). Scholars have identified three major categories in terms of consequences: emotional and psychological consequences, academic and school-related consequences, and engaging in deviant behaviors.…”

The Internet is at the heart of our children's and adolescents' way of life. Although it opens up many positive perspectives in terms of access to information, knowledge, and communication, it also presents risks and potential negative experiences that can have severe consequences at the individual level. In this paper, we are interested in studying the link between cybervictimization, psychological well-being, and social competence. More specifically, we want to study how children and adolescents' anxiety, impulsivity, self-esteem, and deviant behaviors may be related to cybervictimization. We collected data from 1019 children and young people in France aged 9-17 in the context of the EU Kids online survey. Sampling was performed building a randomprobability nationally representative sample of households with children using the Internet. Participants completed a questionnaire online by computer-assisted selfinterviewing (CASI). Structural equation model reveals that (1) cybervictimization is related to lower well-being, such as anxiety and low self-esteem, as well as lower social competence, such as impulsivity and deviant behaviors, and that (2) all dimensions of (non)well-being and social (in)competence are related to each other. Findings are discussed in the light of Agnew general strain theory and previous research findings on the consequences of cybervictimization.

“…Consistent with our finding, some reports show that subjective wellbeing is related with low rates in suicide (Hsu, Chang, & Yip, 2019 ) and correlates negatively with suicide intention (Sisask, Värnik, Kolves, Konstabel, & Wasserman, 2008 ). In one study among students, results indicated that the effects of all types of bullying on suicidal ideation were mediated by subjective wellbeing (Lucas-Molinaa, Pérez-Albénizb, & Fonseca-Pedrerob, 2018 ). In an ecological study analysing the geography of suicide in New Zealand among young people, Snider ( 2011 ) reported a correlation between low levels of psychological wellbeing and increased suicidal behaviours and self-harm for both males and females.…”

Background: Research evidence on suicide in Ghana so far has focused mostly on suicide in the adult population and less work on the younger population such as university students and other vulnerable groups such as children, youth and the aged. Aims: This study was conducted to determine lifetime and current prevalence of suicidal ideation or attempts and identify the associated risks and protective factors among university students in Ghana. Methods: Using a cross-sectional design, 1003 university students (507 males and 496 females) with a mean age of 20.5 years (SD = 5.95) were administered questionnaires that measured suicide, psychological distress, self-esteem and subjective wellbeing. Results: We found the following prevalence rates of suicidal behaviours: ideations 15.2%, attempted 6.3%, death wishes 24.3% and suicidal plan 6.8%. Psychological distress was a risk factor for both suicidal ideation and suicidal attempt. Subjective wellbeing was protective of suicide attempt while self-esteem was protective of suicidal ideation. Conclusions: These findings underscore the need for school-based mental health-promoting programmes that enhance young people's self-esteem, reduce psychological distress and boost subjective wellbeing.

“…SWB has been widely studied by scholars in recent decades (Costa and Mccrae, 1980; Dirksen, 1990; van Campen and Iedema, 2007; Pu et al, 2015). A large amount of literature suggests that SWB plays an important role in maintaining mental and physical health, and can reduce the occurrence of depressive symptoms and suicidal tendency, relieve psychological stress, promote healthy lifestyles, alleviate the physical pain of patients, thus reducing the incidence of diseases and prolonging life-span (Baiden et al, 2016; Lucas-Molina et al, 2018; Martin-Maria et al, 2018; Tey et al, 2018; Furrer et al, 2019; Kaiser et al, 2019; Steptoe, 2019). SWB is also inseparable from some positive psychological factors, such as hope and optimism, and can even be a key predictor of quality of life (Bennett et al, 2015; Kaye-Tzadok et al, 2019).…”

PurposeNurses are undertaking tremendous physical and psychological pressure, which may reduce their subjective well-being (SWB). This study is aimed to identify the relationship among perceived organizational support (POS), self-esteem, and SWB, and to further explore whether self-esteem could be a moderator in the association between POS and SWB in Chinese nurses.Materials and MethodsThis study was conducted in Liaoning Province in China, in 2018. 606 valid questionnaires were collected. Demographic factors, job conditions, the Index of Well-Being, Survey of Perceived Organizational Support (SPOS), and Rosenberg’s Self Esteem Scale (RSES) were included in each questionnaire. The association among POS, self-esteem, and POS × self-esteem interaction with SWB were examined by hierarchical multiple regression analysis. The interaction was visualized by using simple slope analysis.ResultsAverage score of SWB in Chinese nurses was 8.27 ± 2.64. Being married was positively related to SWB, while having longer work time per week, having night shift and dissatisfied with nurse-patient relationship were correlated with lower SWB. POS and self-esteem were important factors for SWB. Self-esteem could moderate the relationship between POS and SWB. When self-esteem was higher, POS had a greater effect on SWB.ConclusionSubjective well-being of nurses in the study was at a low level. Self-esteem could moderate the association between POS and SWB. More interventions related to POS and self-esteem will be helpful to improve SWB among nurses.
