Abstract

Although studies have shown that depressive symptoms, life satisfaction, and adolescents' online peer victimization are associated, there remain critical gaps in our understanding of these relationships. To address these gaps, the present two-wave panel study (N Time1 = 1840) (1) examines the short-term longitudinal and reciprocal relationships between peer victimization on Facebook, depressive symptoms and life satisfaction during adolescence, and (2) explores the moderating role of adolescents' gender, age, and perceived friend support. Self-report data from 1621 adolescent Facebook users (48 % girls; M Age = 14.76; SD = 1.41) were used to test our hypotheses. The majority of the sample (92 %) was born in Belgium. Cross-lagged analyses indicated that peer victimization on Facebook marginally predicted decreases in life satisfaction, and life satisfaction predicted decreases in peer victimization on Facebook. However, depressive symptoms were a risk factor for peer victimization on Facebook, rather than an outcome. In addition, support from friends protected adolescents from the harmful outcomes of peer victimization on Facebook. Both theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

Non-material social assistance from friends and significant others is a need that when fulfilled can significantly impact perception of life satisfaction, as shown in several researches.
“As human beings, non-material social assistance from friends and significant others is a need that when fulfilled can significantly impact on our perception of life satisfaction as shown in several researches [165–168].”
From Association between friendship quality and subjective wellbeing among adolescents: a systematic review (2022) · cites this paper as [166]
The Perceived Friend Support as a Moderator section reports that friend support protected adolescents from lower life satisfaction after Facebook peer victimization. This supports a role for friends’ non-material support, but the finding is specific to adolescents facing online victimization; it does not establish a general human need or an effect of support from significant others on life satisfaction.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
