Previous studies have shown that mindfulness is associated with fewer cyberbullying behaviors in adolescents. The present study investigated the ways in which mindfulness is related to cyberbullying in Chinese adolescents by considering the role of empathy and perceived social support.
A total of 1,390 Chinese high school students were recruited for this study. Adolescents' self-reports of mindfulness, cyberbullying, empathy, and perceived social support were used in the analyses.
The results showed our model fitted the data well [χ = 2.413, CFI = 0.968, TLI = 0.958, RMSEA (90% CI) = 0.059 (0.040-0.078)], and revealed empathy and perceived social support partially mediate the relationship between mindfulness and cyberbullying.
The results of this study indicate adolescents' mindfulness plays a crucial role on the likelihood of cyberbullying as well as empathy and perceived social support. Improving the mindfulness skills of adolescents should be considered by teachers and parents seeking to decrease cyberbullying.
过往研究表明,正念与青少年较少的网络欺凌行为有关。本研究通过考虑同理心和感知到的社会支持的作用,探讨了正念与中国青少年网络欺凌之间的关系。
共有 1390 名中国高中生参与了这项研究。青少年的自我报告的正念、网络欺凌、同理心和感知到的社会支持都被纳入了分析中。
结果表明,我们的模型很好地拟合了数据[χ=2.413,CFI=0.968,TLI=0.958,RMSEA(90%CI)=0.059(0.040-0.078)],并且揭示了同理心和感知到的社会支持部分中介了正念与网络欺凌之间的关系。
本研究结果表明,青少年的正念在网络欺凌的可能性以及同理心和感知到的社会支持方面起着关键作用。教师和家长应该考虑提高青少年的正念技能,以减少网络欺凌。
