Abstract: The inexorable proliferation of digital technologies has precipitated an unparalleled escalation in cybercrime, necessitating a profound and multifaceted understanding of the latent interrelationship between soft skill dimensions and cybercrime awareness. This scholarly review paper synthesizes empirical evidence from 55 studies to elucidate the intricate dynamics underpinning this relationship. Employing a multidisciplinary lens, this paper scrutinizes how individual differences in soft skill dimensions, such as communication, critical thinking, emotional intelligence, and adaptability, influence cybercrime awareness and susceptibility. Furthermore, the review integrates trend analyses and data visualizations to underscore the evolving nature of cybercrime and its psychological correlates. The findings reveal a nuanced interplay between soft skill dimensions and cybercrime awareness, while also highlighting the mediating role of socio-demographic factors. This paper concludes with a clarion call for interdisciplinary research to develop targeted interventions that mitigate cybercrime vulnerability.
