Abstract

Scholars have contended that cyberbullying perpetration is a learned social behavior, and one way to show evidence for cyberbullying learning is to test the longitudinal reciprocal relationships between cyberbullying behavior and related cyberbullying-related cognitions (e.g., attitudes). A paucity of research has tested these learning tenets, and no research that we are aware of has examined the moderating role of sex. The current study used a two-wave longitudinal design with US youth. Participants completed measures of cyberbullying attitudes and perpetration. Results showed that early cyberbullying attitudes and behavior predicted later cyberbullying attitudes and behavior; however, and most importantly, sex moderated those relationships. Males had stronger longitudinal relationships than females. Results are interpreted regarding theory.

网络欺凌的学习:网络欺凌态度与行为的纵向关系以及参与者性别的调节作用:一份简短报告
学者们认为,网络欺凌行为是一种习得的社会行为,展示网络欺凌学习证据的一种方法是测试网络欺凌行为与相关网络欺凌认知(如态度)之间的纵向互惠关系。很少的研究测试了这些学习原则,我们所知道的也没有任何研究考察过性的调节作用。目前的研究采用了美国青年的两波纵向设计。参与者完成了网络欺凌态度和行为的测量。结果表明,早期的网络欺凌态度和行为预测了后期的网络欺凌行为和态度;然而,最重要的是,性调节了这些关系。雄性比雌性有更强的纵向关系。对结果进行了理论解释。
