Abstract

Bullying is a repeated exposure to negative actions from one or more individuals that are intended to harm others and involve an imbalance of power. Along with the development of technology, making online access easier and more widespread which resulted in the emergence of a form of online bullying known as cyberbullying. Cuberbullying can have a significant impact on individuals that is long-term and more severe than traditional bullying, both in terms of maladaptive emotional, psychological, behavioral, and physical. One of the most significant impacts is the emergence of suicidal behavior. Because the risk of cyberbullying is more dangerous, the risk of suicidal behavior will also be greater. This shows the importance of prevention and intervention in both cyberbullying and suicidal behavior. This effort requires the involvement of various parties including health, schools, parents, community, government, authorities or the law and anyone who knows about cyberbullying.
