This study explored cyberbullying and cybervictimization ( CBCV ), for adolescents aged 11–15 from Tanzania ( N = 426) and Canada ( N = 592). Measurement invariance and model invariance was found for CBCV . In addition, multigroup structural equation modeling was used to explore several variables: age, gender, average hours online each day, accessing the Internet in a private location, having online privacy concerns, going online for social purposes, and motivation for cyberbullying. Results found interesting patterns within each country. It was found that cellphone ownership moderated the relation between these predictor variables and reported incidences of CBCV uniquely for each country. These findings provide evidence for the global nature of cyberbullying.
