Abstract	With the rapid expansion of digital communication technologies, young adults increasingly engage in social interaction through online platforms. While these platforms facilitate connectivity and self-expression, they have also created opportunities for cyberbullying, a form of intentional and repeated harm inflicted through electronic media. Unlike traditional bullying, cyberbullying can occur at any time, reach a wide audience, and persist in digital spaces, thereby intensifying its psychological impact. Self-esteem, as a core component of psychological well-being, is particularly vulnerable to negative social experiences. Understanding the relationship between cyberbullying victimization and self-esteem is essential for identifying risk factors and developing preventive mental health interventions among young adults
