Abstract
ABSTRACT While there is substantial empirical evidence on the adverse effects of childhood trauma experiences, less is known about whether and how those experiences are related to cyberbullying perpetration in adolescents. This study examined the potential effects of childhood trauma experiences on cyberbullying perpetration with consideration of the role of emotion dysregulation. Participants (N = 1305) were recruited from elementary and middle schools (ages 9–16) in Yiyang County, Jiangxi Province, China during 2019. Multi-phase logistic regression analysis was used to explore childhood trauma and emotion dysregulation as predictors of cyberbullying experiences. The results showed that both childhood trauma experiences and emotion dysregulation were positively related to cyberbullying perpetration, with the relationship between sexual abuse and cyber-perpetration showing the highest coefficient among forms of childhood trauma. These findings may provide valuable information for use in cyberbullying prevention/intervention research and practice by clarifying avenues for alleviating childhood trauma experiences among minors.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
