Abstract

Problem

The research aimed to determine the relationship between internet addiction and peer bullying in sixth and seventh-grade students.

Method

The population of the study consisted of students in the sixth and seventh grades of secondary schools in a province in eastern Turkey. The data were collected throughout the 2021–2022 academic year from 1201 sixth and seventh graders who voluntered to participate in the research. The data were collected using the Bullying Scale and the Internet Addiction Scale for Adolescents (IAA).

Finding

It was determined that gender, grade level, status of having a mobile phone, and age influenced children's participation in peer bullying. Also, variables of gender, grade level, and status of having a mobile phone affected internet addiction levels. Furthermore, when the correlation between the two scales was analyzed, a strong positive correlation was determined.

Conclusions

In line with the findings of this study, interventions that may lower levels of bullying include delivering training on bullying and internet addiction to families, encouraging children to participate in activities that would reduce the amount of time they spend on the internet, and investigating the reasons for bullying.

六、七年级中学生网络成瘾与同伴欺凌水平的关系

本研究旨在确定六年级和七年级学生网络成瘾与同伴欺凌之间的关系。方法研究对象为土耳其东部某省中学六年级和七年级学生。这些数据是在2021-2022学年期间从自愿参与研究的1201名六年级和七年级学生中收集的。数据采用欺凌量表和青少年网络成瘾量表(IAA)收集。研究发现，性别、年级、是否拥有手机以及年龄对儿童参与同伴欺凌行为有影响。此外，性别、年级水平和拥有手机的状态等变量也会影响网络成瘾水平。进一步分析两个量表之间的相关性，发现两者之间存在较强的正相关关系。与本研究的结果一致，可能降低欺凌水平的干预措施包括向家庭提供有关欺凌和网络成瘾的培训，鼓励儿童参加可以减少他们在互联网上花费的时间的活动，以及调查欺凌的原因。
