Resumen

The internet is the technological development most used by human beings, since it facilitates communication in social and productive processes, however, inappropriate use can cause health problems conditioned by factors associated with the intensity of use and types of content. Therefore, this qualitative-phenomenological research seeks to contrast the emotional regulation of connectivity and vulnerability factors for adolescent cyber abuse in Peru. The result shows that the existence of emotional regulation-especially parental-allows us to identify significant predictors that lead to fighting addiction, implying a decrease in exposure to risk factors that would potentially condition the adolescent's vulnerability to cyberbullying, grooming, sexting, phishing, among other that could negatively impact the development of personality. Alternative forms of mental conditioning are proposed as a way to counteract the times of exposure to the network.
