作者：

Highlights：

• Participants who perpetrated cyberbullying report more negative bystander behavior.

• Cyberbullying perpetration experience (CPE) predicts negative bystander behavior.

• Cyberbullying victimization experience (CVE) does not predict any bystander behavior.

• Perceived incident severity mediates between CPE and all types of bystander behavior for males.

• Cognitive empathy mediates between CVE and all types of bystander behavior for females.
