Abstract Objective To investigate the reliability and validity of the cyberbullying questionnaire, and explore the incidence of cyberbullying among university students. Methods Three groups of university students were investigated. In group 1, there were 1 182 valid participants. They were tested by using the cyberbullying questionnaire. The item analysis and exploratory factor analysis were conducted on the relevant data. In group 2, there were 2 624 valid participants. They were tested by using the cyberbullying questionnaire, anger scale, and social networks use scale. The reliability and validity of the questionnaires were evaluated, and the incidence of cyberbullying was analyzed. In group 3, there were 124 validparticipants. They were tested twice by using the cyberbullying questionnaire（with an interval of 1 month）. The test-retest reliability of the questionnaire was evaluated. Results Each item of the cyberbullying questionnaire demonstrated good discrimination, and the single-factor fitting effect was good（χ2/df=5.53, RMSEA=0.07, CFI=0.98, TLI=0.96）, with a cumulative variance explanation rate of 61.20%. The Cronbach’s α coefficient and test-retest reliability of the questionnaire were 0.83 and 0.65 , respectively. There were significantly positive correlations between the total scores of cyberbullyingand anger（r=0.37, P<0.01）and social networks use scales（r=0.52, P<0.01）. The incidence of cyberbullying among the participants was 32.93%, with higher rates among boys, third-year students, only children, and students from urban areas. Conclusion The cyberbullying questionnaire has good reliability and validity, and can be used to measure the cyberbullying behavior among Chinese university students. The cyberbullying behavior among university students is widespread and may be related to gender, grade level, whether they are only child in a family, and their place of origin.
