Due to the progress in information technology, cyber-bullying is becoming one of the most common forms of interpersonal harm, especially among teenagers. The present study ( = 548) aimed to investigate the relation between perceived parenting style (in terms of autonomy support and psychological control) and cyber-bullying in adolescence. Thereby, the study tested for the intervening role of adolescent need satisfaction (i.e., autonomy and relatedness), empathic concern towards others, and adolescents' recognition of full humanness to cyber-bullying offenders and victims. Findings revealed both a direct and an indirect relation between parenting and cyber-bullying. More specifically, parental psychological control directly predicted cyber-bullying, whereas parental autonomy support related to less cyber-bullying indirectly, as it was associated with the satisfaction of adolescents' need for autonomy, which predicted more empathic concern towards others, which in turn differentially related to recognition of humanness to victims and bullies. The discussion focuses on the implications of the current findings.
由于信息技术的进步,网络欺凌正成为人际伤害最常见的形式之一,尤其是在青少年当中。本研究(n = 548)旨在调查感知到的养育方式(在自主支持和心理控制方面)与青少年网络欺凌之间的关系。因此,该研究检验了青少年需求满足(即自主性和关联性)、对他人的共情关注以及青少年对网络欺凌者和受害者人性的认知在其中的中介作用。研究结果揭示了养育方式与网络欺凌之间的直接和间接关系。更具体地说,父母的心理控制直接预测网络欺凌,而父母的自主支持与较少的网络欺凌间接相关,因为它与青少年自主性需求的满足相关,而这又预测了对他人更多的共情关注,进而与对受害者和欺凌者人性的认知存在不同的关联。讨论聚焦于当前研究结果的意义。
