Toronto, ON - As screen time and cyberbullying increases among adolescents, a new study finds that among 10-14-year-olds, cyberbullying is associated with a higher risk of experiencing eating disorder symptoms. The study, published in International Journal of Eating Disorders, finds that being cyberbullied (cyberbullying victimization) and cyberbullying others (cyberbullying perpetration) are associated with eating disorder symptoms, such as worrying about gaining weight, tying one's self-worth to weight, binge eating, and distress with binge eating.
