abstract="Bullying and cyberbullying remain serious public health concerns threatening the well-being of adolescents. The current study tested the links between narcissism and impulsivity and measures of both bullying and cyberbullying perpetration. Data were collected from 575 Turkish adolescents (54.4% female, M (age) = 15.86, SD = 1.15). Hierarchical logistic regressions tested the main study hypotheses. <br><br>FINDINGS showed that narcissism and impulsivity were each independently and additively positively associated with both bullying and cyberbullying perpetration. <br><br>FINDINGS from a competing, ex post facto alternative model provided evidence that impulsivity was a mediator in the narcissism-bullying perpetration (partial) and the narcissism-cyberbullying perpetration links (full). <br><br>FINDINGS highlight the importance of considering both narcissism and impulsivity in evaluating the factors contributing to both forms of bullying behaviors, which has important prevention and intervention effort implications.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
