The prevalence and psychological impact of cyberbullying was measured among 14 African American undergraduate students. In addition, 170 students completed a cyberbullying survey. The researchers predicted that cyberbullying would have an immense impact on undergraduate students. However, the students conveyed that they were marginally impacted psychologically.
