Teenagers try to develop their identity. Adolescents who fail to realize their identity may develop problematic behaviors. Technological developments have had a major impact, such as the emergence of new forms of bullying, namely cyberbullying carried out through electronic media. Juvenile delinquency such as cyberbullying can be influenced by several factors, including the lack of individual self-control. Individuals who have good self-control should be able to regulate their behavior in a more positive direction. This study aimed to determine whether there is a correlation between self-control and cyberbullying in Private High School X in Bogor. The study sample consisted of 95 students recruited through purposive sampling. The study employed a quantitative method with a Cyberbullying Scale comprised of 26 items with a 0.873 reliability, and a Self-Control Scale comprised of 22 items with a 0.853 reliability. Validity was evaluated by testing content with expert lecturers. Data were analyzed using the product-moment correlation technique. The study results produced an r of –0.465 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant negative correlation between self-control and cyberbullying in students at Private High School X in Bogor.
