Key Points Question Is involvement in cyberbullying independently associated with suicidality (ideation or attempts) in early adolescence? Findings In this cross-sectional analysis of 10 414 US adolescents aged 10 to 13 years, experiencing cyberbullying was associated with suicidality but perpetrating cyberbullying was not. The association with suicidality remained for targets of cyberbullying even when accounting for multiple confounders, including experiences or perpetration of offline peer aggression. Meaning This study suggests that identification of cyberbullying experiences can assist clinicians in adolescent suicide risk stratification and can inform youth suicide prevention strategies.
