Resumen

Introducción: El presente estudio analizó la asociación entre la victimización y agresión de bullying y cyberbullying, y el de sueño ligero y profundo en adolescentes. La literatura reciente, expone que el acoso puede afectar negativamente la calidad del sueño, interfiriendo en procesos fisiológicos esenciales para la recuperación y el bienestar emocional. 


Método: Se realizó un estudio transversal con 985 adolescentes andaluces (10-16 años), quienes portaron pulseras Xiaomi Mi Band 4 durante siete días para registrar la duración de las fases de sueño. Se aplicaron cuestionarios validados para medir bullying y cyberbullying, y se recogieron datos sobre edad, sexo, IMC y nivel de actividad física moderada-vigorosa. Se emplearon regresiones lineales múltiples para analizar asociaciones ajustadas por dichas covariables.


Resultados: La victimización por bullying se asoció significativamente con peor sueño, tanto ligero (β = −7.267; p = .049) como profundo (β = −1.479; p = .048). Asimismo, una mayor victimización por cyberbullying mostró un peor sueño profundo (β = −5.278; p = .018). No se hallaron asociaciones significativas entre las conductas de agresión, tanto en bullying como en cyberbullying, y las fases del sueño.


Conclusiones: Los resultados indican que los jóvenes que sufren bullying/cyberbullying, muestran alteraciones significativas en el sueño. Estos hallazgos subrayan la necesidad de intervenciones preventivas centradas en mitigar las consecuencias del acoso desde la juventud.
