Adolescent cyberbullying and high-risk behaviour outcomes has been a major concern in the last few years. Gender discrepancy is an important component that predicts the outcomes. This study aimed to elaborate and identify the association between cyberbullying experience and high-risk behaviour outcomes based on gender differences among adolescents in Indonesia.
A cross sectional study that involved junior and senior high schools in Jakarta. There were 2917 adolescents who took part in this study. The cyberbullying questionnaire was used to identify the cyberbullying experienced. High-risk behaviour included in this study was tobacco smoking, alcohol consumption, and self-harm behaviour. Chi-Square test and odds ratio analysis were applied through SPSS for Mac.
The highest proportion in this study was composed of adolescents of both genders who acted as victim/perpetrator (52.25%). Adolescent males who indulged in cyberbullying showed an increased risk for cigarette smoking (OR = 2.97); male adolescents who were victims and victim/perpetrator of cyberbullying had a higher risk to consume alcohol (OR = 2.96 & OR = 6.93). Meanwhile, the risk of self-hurting behaviour increased for both female and male with cyberbullying victimization (OR = 3.68 & OR = 2.97). Female adolescents who acted as victim/perpetrator had a higher risk of suicidal thoughts and attempting suicide (OR = 1.90 & OR = 2.11); and they were also at risk of consuming alcohol (OR = 2.84).
Cyberbullying returned negative impacts on both genders of adolescents. Boys showed a greater tendency to externalize while girls showed a greater tendency to internalize. Mental health promotion that is designed specifically for both genders might address the adolescents' needs.
青少年网络欺凌和高风险行为后果是近年来的一个主要关注点。性别差异是预测结果的一个重要因素。本研究旨在阐述和确定印度尼西亚青少年基于性别的网络欺凌经历与高风险行为后果之间的关联。
这是一项横断面研究,涉及雅加达的初中和高中。共有 2917 名青少年参与了这项研究。使用网络欺凌问卷来确定经历过的网络欺凌。本研究纳入的高风险行为包括吸烟、饮酒和自残行为。通过 SPSS for Mac 应用卡方检验和优势比分析。
本研究中比例最高的是男女青少年都充当受害者/施害者(52.25%)。沉迷于网络欺凌的男青少年吸烟的风险增加(OR=2.97);遭受网络欺凌的男青少年和受害者/施害者饮酒的风险更高(OR=2.96 和 OR=6.93)。同时,网络欺凌受害的男女青少年自残行为的风险增加(OR=3.68 和 OR=2.97)。充当受害者/施害者的女青少年有更高的自杀念头和自杀企图的风险(OR=1.90 和 OR=2.11);并且也有饮酒的风险(OR=2.84)。
网络欺凌对青少年的男女两性都产生了负面影响。男孩表现出更强的外化倾向,而女孩表现出更强的内化倾向。专门针对两性设计的心理健康促进可能满足青少年的需求。
