This study examined the moderating effect of agreeableness on the relation between exposure of antisocial media and cyberbullying. The subjects of the research were 293 junior high school students 12-16 years old (M = 13,58; SD = 0,74) in Malang City. Instruments used were The Cyberbullying Questionnaire, Content-based Media Exposure Scale, and The Big Five Inventory. The result indicated that agreeableness is moderator exposure of antisocial media and cyberbullying (β = -0,155; p = 0,006). Correlation between exposure of antisocial media and cyberbullying is stronger in adolescents with low levels of agreeableness than adolescents with high agreeableness.
