There was a low negative correlation between the ratio of adolescents cyberbullying victimization and subjective well-being. 4. For adolescents, the subjective well-being was low positive correlation with the extent of perceived peer support, while there was no significant correlation between subjective well-being and contact by electronic media, which, on the other hand, was lowly positively correlated with cyberbullying victimization. However, for the adolescents from junior and senior high school, there was a low negative correlation between the cyberbullying victimization and perceived peer support. 5.Peer support moderated the relation between cyberbullying victimization and subjective well-being.
