The results of the conducted study showed that good digital literacy, namely, knowledge of digital ethics, helps to regulate students’ thinking and behaving while being on social juvenile media. This in turn can have the benefit of suggesting positive approaches regarding search for the truth and evaluating online content and mitigate the chances to be exposed to cyberbullying.
