School bullying and depression have a great negative psychological impact on college students, and personality analysis is the key to the detection of psychopathological states. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the mediating effect of personality on depression and school bullying in college students.
This cross-sectional study investigated the bullying situation in colleges and universities by using the Olweus Scale, the Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire. The participants were 1200 college students. Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the data and the mediating effect of exposure, and the mediating effect was tested.
Spearman correlation analysis showed that bullying experience was associated with introversion (r = 0.702), neuroticism (r = 0.219) and depressive symptoms (r = 0.600), but was negatively correlated with extraversion (r = -0.537). Depressive symptoms were positively correlated with neuroticism (r = 0.279) and introversion (r = 0.611), but negatively correlated with extraversion (r = -0.469). In relationship between bullying and depression, neuroticism showed positively partially mediating effect and mediating effect ratio was 4.39% (β = 0.161, p < 0.05), and introversion had an obvious mediating effect and the ratio was 40% (β = 0.611, p < 0.001). Otherwise, extraversion partially mediated between campus bullying and depression adversely and mediating ratio is 8.75% (β = -0.359, p < 0.05).
Campus bullying is significantly associated with depression and personality, and personality has a remarkable mediating effect in campus bullying and depression.
校园欺凌和抑郁对大学生有很大的负面影响，而人格分析是检测心理病理状态的关键。因此，本研究旨在探讨人格对大学生抑郁和校园欺凌的中介作用。
本横断面研究采用 Olweus 量表、抑郁自评量表（SDS）和艾森克人格问卷调查高校欺凌情况。共纳入 1200 名大学生。采用 Spearman 相关分析进行数据分析，检验暴露和中介效应，并用 Bootstrap 法检验中介效应。
Spearman 相关分析显示，欺凌经历与内向性（r = 0.702）、神经质（r = 0.219）和抑郁症状（r = 0.600）呈正相关，与外向性（r = -0.537）呈负相关。抑郁症状与神经质（r = 0.279）和内向性（r = 0.611）呈正相关，与外向性（r = -0.469）呈负相关。在欺凌与抑郁的关系中，神经质表现出正向部分中介效应，中介效应比为 4.39%（β = 0.161，p < 0.05），而内向性则表现出明显的中介效应，中介效应比为 40%（β = 0.611，p < 0.001）。外向性则在校园欺凌与抑郁之间存在显著的负向部分中介效应，中介效应比为 8.75%（β = -0.359，p < 0.05）。
校园欺凌与抑郁和人格显著相关，人格在校园欺凌和抑郁之间具有显著的中介作用。
