Murat Eyuboglu et al.

Summary: The study aimed to estimate the prevalence of traditional school bullying and cyberbullying among middle and high school students, and analyze the reciprocal associations between bullying involvement and mental health problems. The findings showed that bullying involvement, whether as a victim, perpetrator, or both, was closely associated with anxiety, depression, psychosocial difficulties, and self-harm behavior. Girls were more likely to be affected by mental health issues, and a significant association between bullying victimization and negative mental health outcomes was observed.

Depressive symptoms, mental wellbeing, and substance use among adolescents before and during the COVID-19 pandemic in Iceland: a longitudinal, population-based study

Ingibjorg Eva Thorisdottir et al.

Summary: The study found that the COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant negative impact on adolescent mental health, with an increase in depressive symptoms and worsened mental wellbeing. However, substance use, including cigarette smoking, e-cigarette use, and alcohol intoxication, declined among 15-18-year-olds during the pandemic. This decrease in substance use may serve as a protective factor against future substance use disorders and dependence.
