As the number of related studies is still lacking, the present study aims to determine the predictors of cyberbullying among youths in Malaysia. The study is quantitative in nature and in total had involved 400 youths aged between 18 to 40 years old. The findings suggest that predictors such as age, loneliness, self-esteem, and empathy yielded significant relationship with cyberbullying, while males were predominantly reported to perpetrate cyberbullying than females. Several recommendations were highlighted and hopefully, it can assist any concerned parties in developing concrete strategies to reduce cyberbullying cases among youths in Malaysia further.</p> <p>Keywords: Youth; Cyberbully; Youth development</p&gt;}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Cognitive Sciences and Human Development}, author={Ahmad Ghazali, Akmar Hayati and Abu Samah, Asnarulkhadi and Omar, Siti Zobidah and Abdullah, Haslinda and Ahmad, Aminah and Mohamed Shaffril, Hayrol Azril}, year={2020}, month={Mar.}, pages={67-80} }
