Abstract：
Countries in South and Central America and the Caribbean are among the countries with the highest adolescent cyberbullying crimes. However, empirical evidence about the effect of cyberbullying victimization on suicidal ideation among in-school adolescents in these countries remains limited. The present study examined the association between cyberbullying victimization and suicidal ideation among in-school adolescents in Argentina, Panama, St Vincent, and the Grenadines.
A representative cross-sectional data from 51,405 in-school adolescents was used. Hierarchical logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the association between cyberbulling victimization and suicidal ideation.
Overall, 20% and 21.1% of the adolescents reported cyberbullying victimization and suicidal ideation, respectively in the past year before the survey. Suicidal ideation was higher among adolescents who experienced cyberbullying victimization (38.4%) than those who did not experience cyberbullying victimization (16.6%). Significantly higher odds of suicidal ideation were found among adolescents who had experienced cyberbullying victimization than those who had not experienced cyberbullying victimization [aOR = 1.88, 95% CI: 1.77-1.98].
This finding calls for developing and implementing evidence-based programs and practices by school authorities and other relevant stakeholders to reduce cyberbullying victimization among adolescents in this digital age. Protective factors such as parental support and peer support should be encouraged.

摘要：
背景：南美，中美洲和加勒比海地区的国家是青少年网络欺凌犯罪最高的国家之一。然而,在这些国家,关于网络欺凌受害对在校青少年自杀意念的影响的实证证据仍然有限.本研究调查了阿根廷在校青少年中网络欺凌受害和自杀意念之间的关系，巴拿马,圣文森特,和格林纳丁斯。
方法：使用来自51,405名在校青少年的代表性横断面数据。使用分层逻辑回归分析来估计网络攻击受害和自杀意念之间的关联。
结果：总体而言，20%和21.1%的青少年报告网络欺凌受害和自杀意念，分别在过去一年的调查前。经历过网络欺凌受害的青少年的自杀意念（38.4％）高于未经历过网络欺凌受害的青少年（16.6％）。在经历过网络欺凌受害的青少年中，自杀意念的几率明显高于未经历过网络欺凌受害的青少年[aOR=1.88，95％CI：1.77-1.98]。
结论：这一发现要求学校当局和其他相关利益相关者制定和实施基于证据的计划和实践，以减少数字时代青少年中的网络欺凌受害。应鼓励父母支持和同伴支持等保护因素。
