This study expands the knowledge of the impact of Internet and SNS activity and online self-disclosure on CV. |\n\n1. Introduction  \nThe development of information and communication technologies (ICT) has brought many benefits for children and youth (O’Keeffe & Clarke-Pearson, 2011), but also threats and risks (Aizenkot & KashyRosenbaum, 2019; Ansary, 2020). One such risk has been conceptualized as cyberbullying (Smith et al., 2008), i.e., an aggressive, intentional act via ICT carried out repeatedly and over time against a target (Smith et al., 2008). Given the worldwide prevalence of cyberbullying (Brochado et al., 2016; Inchley, et al., 2016) and the significant harmful implications for the victims (Ansary, 2020; Kowalski et al., 2019; Olweus & Limber, 2018; Vaillancourt et al., 2017), there is an urgent need to better understand this phenomenon and the factors that predict it as a basis for effective prevention and intervention efforts.  \nParticipation in social networking sites (SNSs) has become increasingly ubiquitous and compulsory among youth (Robards, 2014) in recent years. Massive Internet and SNS use that leads to constant online interaction and availability of users (Ansary, 2020) has been connected to higher incidences of cyberbullying (G¨orzig & ´Olafsson, 2013; Peluchette et al., 2015; Schultz et al., 2014) and cyberbullying  \nvictimization (CV) (Aizenkot, 2017; Mesch, 2009; O’Dea & Campbell, 2012). Several studies, however, found that SNS use (O’Dea & Campbell, 2012; Rodríguez-Enríquez et al., 2019) and Internet engagement (Rodríguez-Enríquez et al., 2019) alone are not significant predictors of CV. Therefore, it has been argued that more research is needed in order to better understand the predictability of CV from Internet and SNS use (Rodríguez-Enríquez et al., 2019).  \nThe contemporary culture of sharing and interaction in SNSs (Robards, 2014) has gradually taken personal information sharing rates to an unprecedented level (Conger et al., 2012; Hodkinson, 2017).
