Abstract

There is a growing concern towards the risk of cyber violence among young digital natives. This study tested the applicability of routine activity theory in the cyber domain using a national sample of 2228 South Korean adolescents. Latent profile analysis was used to identify the conditions of the motivated offender, suitable target, and capable guardian within the online context. Low-risk, detached norm, and comprehensive-risk profiles emerged. Binary logistic regression indicated that adolescents in the comprehensive-risk profile were most likely to experience cyber violence, compared to other profiles. The risk of perpetration was greater for the low-risk profile than the detached norm profile. This study identified the contexts of youth that heighten the risk of cyber violence and suggested important points of intervention.

韩国青少年网络暴力的潜在特征:常规活动理论的适用性
青少年数字原住民的网络暴力风险日益受到关注。本研究以 2228 名韩国青少年为样本,测试了常规活动理论在网络领域的适用性。研究采用了潜在特征分析来识别网络环境中的动机犯罪者、合适的目标和有能力的监护人。得出了低风险、脱离规范和综合风险特征。二元逻辑回归表明,与其他类型的青少年相比,综合风险类型的青少年最有可能遭遇网络暴力。低风险青少年的施暴风险要高于脱离规范青少年。这项研究确定了会增加网络暴力风险的青少年背景,并提出了干预的要点。

期刊介绍: There is a growing recognition that major social trends, such as the process of globalization, rapidly changing demography, increasing psycho-social difficulties in individuals and families, growing economic disparities within and between the nations, and international migration, present important challenges for social policies and social work practices in Asia. It also has become evident that social policy strategies and social work methods must be developed and implemented in the context of Asian region''s own histories, cultures, and unique developmental trajectories in order to respond effectively to those emerging challenges. The Asian Social Work and Policy Review seeks to encourage exchanges of original ideas, rigorous analysis of experiences, innovative practice methods founded on local knowledge and skills of problem solving in the areas of social work and social policy between various countries in Asia.
