Abstract

In the current research, we developed and tested a Cyber Malevolent Creativity Behavior Scale (CMCBS), which contains 11 items in three dimensions and aims to measure the degree of individuals' cyber malevolent creativity through malevolent creative behaviors in their lives. The results revealed satisfactory reliability with Cronbach's α coefficient of 0.749 for the overall scale. Specifically, the calculated values were 0.681 for cybershaming, 0.799 for technology abuse, and 0.644 for information manipulation. Data were collected utilizing an online survey (N = 988) in the form of a questionnaire. Using exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis, the questionnaire's latent structure and contribution of relevant correlates for explaining cyber malevolent creativity were examined. The CMCBS was significantly and positively correlated with the Malevolent Creativity Behavior Scale, Buss–Perry Aggression Questionnaire, and the Cyberbullying Inventory. This, along with the adequate psychometric properties uncovered here, indicates that it is a useful tool for research on cyber malevolent creativity.

网络恶意创造行为量表的开发与测试

本研究开发并测试了网络恶意创造行为量表（CMCBS），该量表包含三个维度的 11 个项目，旨在通过生活中的恶意创造行为来测量个体的网络恶意创造程度。结果显示，整个量表的信度令人满意，Cronbach's α 系数为 0.749。具体来说，网络羞辱的计算值为 0.681，技术滥用的计算值为 0.799，信息操纵的计算值为 0.644。数据是通过在线调查（N = 988）以问卷形式收集的。通过探索性因子分析和确认性因子分析，研究了问卷的潜在结构和相关关联因素对解释网络恶意创造力的贡献。CMCBS 与 "恶意创造行为量表"、"Buss-Perry 攻击行为问卷 "和 "网络欺凌量表 "呈明显的正相关。这一点以及本文所揭示的充分的心理测量特性表明，它是研究网络恶意创造力的有用工具。
