 Aim: This research was conducted to identify the cyber victimization and loneliness levels, the influencing factors, and the relationship between them in adolescents in Turkey during the COVID-19 pandemic. Design and Method: The crosssectional study was conducted between March 1 and March 15, 2021. The sample of the study consists of 351 adolescents who volunteered to participate in the study. All participants had internet access. Participants filled out the Google Docs form used to collect data, including the Descriptive Information Form, Cyber Victimization Scale, and UCLA Loneliness Scale. Results: The experience of cyber victimization in adolescents in Turkey is low and the experience of being lonely is at a moderate level. It was found that there is a significant relationship between adolescents age group p.05, gender p.001, level of school success p.05 during the pandemic, and cyber victimization. It was found that there is a statistically significant relationship between adolescents age group p.05, mothers employment status p.001, and levels of school success p.001 during the pandemic, and loneliness. Conclusions: In this study, there is a relationship between cyber victimization and loneliness. Cyber victimization can affect the loneliness of adolescents. During the COVID-19 pandemic, an evidence-based action plan should be implemented to protect the mental health of adolescents.

 Amaç: Bu araştırma, COVID-19 pandemisi sürecinde Türkiyedeki ergenlerde siber mağduriyet ve yalnızlık düzeylerini, etkileyen faktörleri ve bunlar arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Kesitsel tipteki araştırma, 1 Mart  15 Mart 2021 tarihleri arasında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın örneklemini, araştırmaya katılmaya gönüllü olan 351 ergen oluşturmuştur. Tüm katılımcılar internet erişimine sahipti. Katılımcılar, Tanımlayıcı Bilgi Formu, Siber Mağduriyet Ölçeği ve UCLA Yalnızlık Ölçeğini içeren veri toplama formlarını Google Dokümanları kullanarak doldurmuştur. Bulgular: Türkiyede ergenlerde siber mağduriyet deneyimi düşük, yalnızlık deneyimi orta düzeydedir. Ergenlerin pandemi döneminde yaş grubu p.05, cinsiyeti p.001, okul başarı düzeyi p.05 ile siber mağduriyet arasında anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ergenlerin yaş grubu p.05, annenin çalışma durumu p.001, pandemi dönemindeki okul başarısı p.001 ve yalnızlık arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu bulunmuştur. Sonuç: Bu araştırmada siber mağduriyet ile yalnızlık arasında anlamlı bir ilişki vardır. Siber mağduriyet ergenlerin yalnızlık durumunu etkileyebilir. COVID-19 pandemisi sürecinde ergenlerin ruh sağlığını korumak için kanıta dayalı bir eylem planı uygulanmalıdır.
