The objective of this research is to determine the factors that contribute to the cyberbullying activities among students using social media by looking at peer influence, attitude and family background. Regarding the various technologies and platform social media users experienced significantly more to the cyberbullying. The survey also indicated that students spent more time on social media. The researcher used a descriptive style by using a questionnaire to scrutinize the factor that contributes to the cyberbully activities.
