Acoso cibernético propiedades psicométricas educación superior. This study analyzed the psychometric properties of a scale to measure coping with cyber-bullying among university students. Non-probability sampling was used to select 346 higher education students from a public university in southern Sonora (Mexico). Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was performed, reliability was tested with Cronbach’s alpha and McDonald’s omega, and the mean variance was analyzed. The results revealed a sustainable model for measuring coping with cyber-bullying that comprised three factors: seeking social support, evasive technical solution, and proactive technical solution. It is concluded that the scale has the necessary psychometric properties to measure this construct in university students. En el estudio se analizaron las propiedades psicométricas de una escala para medir afrontamiento de estudiantes universitarios a ciberagresiones. Se seleccionó de forma no probabilística a 346 estudiantes de educación superior, 85.8% mujeres (M=20.74, DE=3.33 años) y 14.2% hombres (M=20.84, DE=2.30 años) de una universidad pública del sur de Sonora (México). Se llevó a cabo el análisis factorial exploratorio y confirmatorio, así como de fiabilidad con los coeficientes de Alfa de Cronbach, Omega de McDonald y el análisis de la varianza media extractada. Los resultados arrojaron un modelo de medida sustentable del afrontamiento a la ciberagresión integrado por tres factores: búsqueda de apoyo social, solución técnica evasiva y solución técnica proactiva. Se concluye que la escala cuenta con las propiedades psicométricas necesarias para su empleo en la medición del constructo entre estudiantes universitarios.
