Previous studies have found some risk factors of cyberbullying. However, little is known about how mother phubbing may influence adolescent cyberbullying, and the mediating and moderating mechanisms underlying this relationship. "Phubbing," which is a portmanteau of "phone" and "subbing," refers to snubbing other people and focus on smartphones in social interactions. This study examined whether mother phubbing, which refers to being phubbed by one's mother, would be positively related to adolescent cyberbullying, whether perceived mother acceptance would mediate the relationship between mother phubbing and adolescent cyberbullying, and whether emotional stability would moderate the pathways between mother phubbing and adolescent cyberbullying. The sample consisted of 4,213 Chinese senior high school students (mean age 16.41 years, = 0.77, 53% were female). Participants completed measurements regarding mother phubbing, cyberbullying, perceived mother acceptance, and emotional stability. The results indicated that mother phubbing was positively related to cyberbullying, which was mediated by perceived mother acceptance. Further, moderated mediation analyses showed that emotional stability moderated the direct path between mother phubbing and cyberbullying and the indirect path between mother phubbing and perceived mother acceptance. This study highlighted the harmful impact of mother phubbing on adolescents by showing a positive association between mother phubbing and adolescent cyberbullying, as well as the underlying mechanisms between mother phubbing and adolescent cyberbullying.
先前的研究已经发现了一些网络欺凌的风险因素。然而，人们对母亲冷落（即被母亲冷落）如何影响青少年网络欺凌知之甚少，也不清楚这种关系背后的中介和调节机制。“Phubbing”是“phone”和“snubbing”的混合词，指的是在社交互动中冷落他人，专注于智能手机。本研究考察了母亲冷落（即被母亲冷落）是否与青少年网络欺凌呈正相关，感知到的母亲接纳是否在母亲冷落与青少年网络欺凌之间起中介作用，情绪稳定性是否调节母亲冷落与青少年网络欺凌之间的关系。样本由 4213 名中国高中生组成（平均年龄 16.41 岁， = 0.77，53%为女性）。参与者完成了关于母亲冷落、网络欺凌、感知到的母亲接纳和情绪稳定性的测量。结果表明，母亲冷落与网络欺凌呈正相关，这是通过感知到的母亲接纳来介导的。此外，调节中介分析表明，情绪稳定性调节了母亲冷落与网络欺凌之间的直接路径和母亲冷落与感知到的母亲接纳之间的间接路径。本研究通过展示母亲冷落与青少年网络欺凌之间的积极关联以及母亲冷落与青少年网络欺凌之间的潜在机制，强调了母亲冷落对青少年的有害影响。
