Abstract

Background: Previous studies have shown the positive effects of bullying cognition on school bullying behavior among young people, but the mechanism underlying this association remains unclear.

Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study with 5,903 primary school students in grades 3-5 in Luzhou city. Hayes' PROCESS macro was used to test the mediating effect of psychological resilience and the moderating effect of sex on the relationship between bullying cognition and school bullying after controlling for grade.

Results: Psychological resilience partially mediated the relationship between school bullying cognition and victimization (β = -0.0174, 95% CI: -0.0219 to -0.0132) and between perpetration (β = -0.0079, 95% CI: -0.0104 to -0.0055). This study revealed that sex moderated the relationship between school bullying cognition and perpetration (β = 0.0383, p < 0.001) and victimization behavior (β = 0.0400, p < 0.001).

Conclusion: These findings suggest that it is crucial for education regulators, schools, and families to cultivate students' school bullying cognitions and psychological resilience, which may help to decrease the prevalence of school bullying. Especially for boys, improving their bullying cognition may largely decrease its perpetration.

欺凌认知对中国小学生校园欺凌的影响：复原力与性别的调节中介模型。

背景：先前的研究表明，欺凌认知对青少年校园欺凌行为有积极影响，但这种关联的机制仍不清楚：以往的研究表明，欺凌认知对青少年校园欺凌行为有积极影响，但这种关联的机制仍不清楚：我们对泸州市 5903 名 3-5 年级小学生进行了横断面研究。方法：我们对泸州市 5903 名 3-5 年级的小学生进行了横断面研究，采用 Hayes 的 PROCESS 宏检验了心理复原力的中介效应，以及性别在控制年级后对欺凌认知与校园欺凌之间关系的调节效应：心理复原力部分调节了校园欺凌认知与受害（β = -0.0174，95% CI：-0.0219 至 -0.0132）和实施（β = -0.0079，95% CI：-0.0104 至 -0.0055）之间的关系。本研究发现，性别调节了校园欺凌认知与施暴之间的关系（β = 0.0383，p β = 0.0400，p 结论：性别对校园欺凌认知与施暴之间的关系具有调节作用：这些研究结果表明，教育管理者、学校和家庭培养学生的校园欺凌认知和心理复原力至关重要，这可能有助于降低校园欺凌的发生率。特别是对于男生来说，提高他们对校园欺凌的认知，可以在很大程度上减少校园欺凌的发生。
