Abstract
Cybergrooming exploits minors through online trust-building, yet research
remains fragmented, limiting holistic prevention. Social sciences focus on
behavioral insights, while computational methods emphasize detection, but their
integration remains insufficient. This review systematically synthesizes both
fields using the PRISMA framework to enhance clarity, reproducibility, and
cross-disciplinary collaboration. Findings show that qualitative methods offer
deep insights but are resource-intensive, machine learning models depend on
data quality, and standard metrics struggle with imbalance and cultural
nuances. By bridging these gaps, this review advances interdisciplinary
cybergrooming research, guiding future efforts toward more effective prevention
and detection strategies.
