Abstract

Understanding online risk for adults with intellectual disabilities is important to improve digital inclusion in society. Perceptions of online risk can determine behaviours that obstruct or facilitate Internet access and use. This current study aimed to qualitatively investigate the psychological implications of online victimisation risks, including online negative comments and/or messages for adults with intellectual disabilities, as a novel area yet explored in-depth. Semi-structured interview data was collected remotely. Template analysis found there to be both negative and positive psychological implications experienced in response to online risks. Specifically, participants reported a wide range of negative emotions but also positive growth in the form of learning from the experience and increased confidence. The attribution of blame process in cybervictimisation can involve both blaming the perpetrator but also internalised victim-blaming which may be a consequence of the type of online risk (i.e. sexual risks). Implications for both practice and research are suggested.
我已经不是原来的我了":智障成人在线接触风险经历的心理影响
了解智障成人的上网风险对于提高社会的数字包容性非常重要。对网络风险的认知可以决定阻碍或促进互联网访问和使用的行为。本研究旨在对智障成人网上受害风险(包括网上负面评论和/或信息)的心理影响进行定性调查,这是一个尚未深入探讨的新领域。半结构式访谈数据是通过远程收集的。模板分析发现,在应对网络风险时,既有消极的心理影响,也有积极的心理影响。具体来说,参与者报告了各种负面情绪,但也有积极的成长,表现为从经验中学习并增强了信心。网络受害中的归咎过程既包括对施暴者的责备,也包括对受害者的内化责备,这可能是网络风险(即性风险)类型的结果。本文提出了对实践和研究的启示。
