This study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis of the literature on the impact of cyberbullying on mental health to analyze the academic performance and propose future research avenues. The study utilized the SCOPUS database and software like spreadsheets and VOSviewer to extract and analyze data. The findings reveal that the research on cyberbullying and mental health is still underdeveloped, with a steady increase in publications and citations over the years. The study identified the top journals, countries, and authors contributing to this field, and analyzed emerging trends and topics. The results highlight the need for further research in emerging countries and journals, as well as the importance of addressing gender differences, clinical and criminal aspects, and interventions to mitigate the negative impacts of cyberbullying on mental health. The study also discusses the role of social media, pandemic-related issues, and adolescent behavior in the evolving landscape of cyberbullying and mental health research.This study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis of the literature on the impact of cyberbullying on mental health to analyze the academic performance and propose future research avenues.
