The collected data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, Pearson correlation coefficients, PROCESS macro model 4, Bootstrap, Sobel test using IBM SPSS Statistics version 20.0 and PROCESS macro for SPSS. The results of this study are as follows. First, there was a significantly negative correlation between academic stress and self-control (r=-.246, p<.001). There was also a positive correlation between academic stress and cyberbullying tendency, but it was not significant (r=.096, p=.055). Second, the mediation effect of self-control is significant between academic stress and cyberbullying tendency (R2=.039, p<.001). Therefore, Academic stress and self-control should be considered in the development of cyberbullying prevention programs, and further research is also needed to verify the effectiveness of the cyberbullying prevention program based on this study.
