Introducción: El ciberacoso en la educación superior se relaciona con estrés, ansiedad, sintomatología depresiva y disminución del rendimiento académico. Sin embargo, los factores protectores frente a este fenómeno han recibido una atención científica limitada. Objetivo: Examinar la evolución, productividad, impacto y estructura conceptual de la producción científica sobre factores protectores frente al ciberacoso en estudiantes universitarios durante el periodo 2017-2026. Metodología: Se desarrolló un análisis bibliométrico cuantitativo, descriptivo y longitudinal. Mediante el protocolo PRISMA 2020 se seleccionaron 45 documentos indexados en Scopus y Web of Science. El procesamiento y análisis de la producción científica se realizó mediante Bibliometrix y Biblioshiny, considerando indicadores de productividad, impacto, colaboración y estructura conceptual. Resultados: Los resultados evidenciaron un crecimiento progresivo de la producción científica a partir de 2022. Los factores protectores con mayor presencia fueron la autoestima, el apoyo social percibido y la resiliencia. China y Estados Unidos concentraron la mayor producción e impacto científico, mientras que las redes de colaboración entre autores permanecieron fragmentadas. Asimismo, se identificó una limitada atención a la regulación emocional y una escasa representación de investigaciones procedentes de Latinoamérica. Conclusiones: La investigación sobre factores protectores frente al ciberacoso universitario se encuentra en una fase de consolidación. Aunque existe una creciente atención a recursos individuales y sociales, persisten vacíos relacionados con la regulación emocional, la colaboración científica y la producción latinoamericana, aspectos que requieren mayor desarrollo investigativo.
Introduction: Cyberbullying in higher education is associated with stress, anxiety, depressive symptoms, and decreased academic performance. However, protective factors against this phenomenon have received limited scientific attention. Objective: To examine the evolution, productivity, impact, and conceptual structure of scientific research on protective factors against cyberbullying among university students during the 2017-2026 period. Methodology: A quantitative, descriptive, and longitudinal bibliometric analysis was conducted. Following the PRISMA 2020 protocol, 45 documents indexed in Scopus and Web of Science were selected. Scientific production was processed and analyzed using Bibliometrix and Biblioshiny, considering indicators of productivity, impact, collaboration, and conceptual structure. Results: The findings revealed progressive growth in scientific production from 2022 onward. The most frequently studied protective factors were self-esteem, perceived social support, and resilience. China and the United States accounted for the highest levels of scientific production and impact, while author collaboration networks remained fragmented. Limited attention to emotional regulation and scarce representation of research from Latin America were also identified. Conclusions: Research on protective factors against cyberbullying in higher education is at a consolidation stage. Although increasing attention has been devoted to individual and social resources, significant gaps remain regarding emotional regulation, scientific collaboration, and Latin American research production. These areas require further investigation to strengthen the evidence base and broaden the understanding of protective mechanisms in university contexts.
