The world is currently grappling with the medical, psychological, economic, and behavioral consequences of the COVID-19 global pandemic. The existing research has rightly been focused on the medical contributions - treatment, symptoms, prevalence, etc. - which are paramount. A paucity of research has tested the psychological and behavioral consequences of COVID-19. In two cross-sectional studies of US adults, we posited that personal (e.g., being diagnosed with COVID-19) and proximal (e.g., knowing people with COVID-19) experiences with COVID-19 would be related to cyberbullying perpetration due to an increase in stress. Using path modeling, results showed that (a) personal and proximal COVID-19 experiences positively correlated with cyberbullying (Studies 1 and 2) and (b) personal COVID-19 experiences were indirectly related to cyberbullying through stress, but not proximal experiences (Study 2).
目前，全世界都在应对 COVID-19 全球大流行带来的医学、心理、经济和行为后果。现有研究正确地侧重于医学贡献，包括治疗、症状、流行程度等，这些都是至关重要的。但是，对 COVID-19 的心理和行为后果的研究还很少。在两项针对美国成年人的横断面研究中，我们假设个人（例如，被诊断出患有 COVID-19）和近邻（例如，认识患有 COVID-19 的人）的 COVID-19 经历会因压力增加而与网络欺凌行为有关。通过路径建模，结果表明：（a）个人和近邻的 COVID-19 经历与网络欺凌呈正相关（研究 1 和 2）；（b）个人的 COVID-19 经历通过压力与网络欺凌呈间接相关，但近邻经历则不然（研究 2）。
