The impact of cyber dating abuse on self-esteem: The mediating role of emotional distress

En el contexto de una relación de pareja, las redes sociales y las aplicaciones móviles propician situaciones de ciberacoso, control y abuso (Burke, Wallen, Vail-Smith y Knox, 2011;Durán y Martínez-Pecino, 2015;Van Ouytsel y cols., 2016;Zweig, Índex …”
