    This research study analyzes the relationship between Machiavellianism and cyberbullying in adolescents, considering that both issues have gained significant relevance today due to the constant use of social media and digital platforms by young people. The interest in conducting this study arises from the need to understand how certain personality traits, characterized by manipulation, self-interest, lack of empathy, and control over others, may influence the emergence of aggressive behaviors within virtual environments. The research was conducted using a quantitative approach, with a non-experimental, descriptive-correlational, and cross-sectional design. For data collection, surveys were administered to adolescents within the educational context, using instruments that made it possible to identify both the levels of Machiavellianism and the different manifestations of cyberbullying present in the studied population. The study is framed within the psychosocial and educational field of Social Work, focusing on issues that affect coexistence, social interaction, and the emotional well-being of adolescents. The importance of this research lies in the fact that it provides relevant information about the influence of certain personality traits on the dynamics of digital violence. In addition, the results obtained make it possible to propose prevention and intervention strategies aimed at strengthening socio-emotional skills, promoting healthy relationships, and building safer digital coexistence within educational institutions.

    The present study aims to analyze the relationship between the use of video games (UVJ) and socioemotional skills (HSE) in adolescents from the Unidad Educativa “Pedro Fermín Cevallos” in the city of Ambato, Ecuador. UVJ, understood as an interactive activity that combines cultural, cognitive, and social elements, has gained relevance in youth development, with potential to foster competencies such as empathy and emotional regulation, or, in extreme cases, generate isolation and affective dysregulation. HSE, on the other hand, refers to the ability to manage emotions, resolve conflicts, and facilitate communication, essential for interpersonal and academic well-being. The methodological approach was quantitative, allowing an objective measurement of UVJ presence and its impact on HSE. Validated instruments such as the IGD-20 and the Socioemotional Skills Questionnaire for School Mediation (CHSE) were applied, under a cross-sectional correlational design. The sample consisted of 163 students from first, second, and third year of high school, selected from a population of 420. The results indicate that 66.9% of participants show a low level of UVJ, 31.9% moderate, and only 1.2% high. In HSE, 71.2% show a moderate level, with strengths in conflict management and weaknesses in communication and emotional regulation. Correlation analyses reveal a very weak and negative relationship between UVJ and HSE (ρ = -0.107; p = 0.173), indicating the absence of significant influence. In conclusion, UVJ does not represent a determining risk factor for HSE when balanced, making it necessary to raise awareness about responsible technology use in educational contexts to foster socioemotional competencies in adolescents
