Key Words	Peer bullying; Depression; Anxiety; Aggression; Cyberbullying; Longitudinal network analysis
Core Tip	Bai et al’s study demonstrates that specific symptoms especially sad mood, sleep disturbance, and cyberbullying victimization drive the reciprocal relationship between peer bullying and adolescent mental health problems. This finding calls for early, symptom-focused interventions and comprehensive school-based strategies that address both traditional and cyber forms of bullying. For lasting impact, future research and prevention efforts should prioritize multi-source data and culturally adaptable approaches.
