The participants were deliberately selected through a lottery method. The researchers employed the descriptive survey method as it suited the nature of the study's problem. Field procedures included the use of standardized scales to measure cyberbullying, optimism, and pessimism. Data were analyzed using SPSS software, employing Pearson's correlation coefficient, Cronbach's alpha, means, and standard deviations for statistical processing. The results showed a significant positive correlation between cyberbullying and pessimism, and a negative correlation between cyberbullying and optimism. Additionally, students who experienced high levels of cyberbullying tended to have lower levels of optimism. The study recommends developing counseling programs aimed at reducing cyberbullying and enhancing optimism among female students.
