Abstract

This study constructs an integrated model for university students' smart phone cyber bullying and tests interaction effects between causal and control factors. Causal factors include low self-control, differential association with cyber bullying peers, and victimization experiences; and control factors include internet ethics, perceived certainty of formal punishment, and bond to parents. This study focuses on examining how internet ethics buffers the effect of causal factors in cyber bullying. Results show that both differential association with cyber bullying peers and victimization experiences have significant effects on cyber bullying. And among the control factors, internet ethics only has a negative direct effect on cyber bullying. In addition, it is found that there are significant interaction effects between two causal factors - differential association with cyber bullying peers and victimization experiences - and internet ethics. It is also shown that there is a significant interaction effect between victimization experience and bond to parents, but a perceived formal punishment has no significant control effect. It is revealed that internet ethics is a main control factor in buffering the effects of causal factors in cyber bullying.

이 연구는 스마트폰 이용에서의 사이버폭력을 설명하기 위해 대학생을 대상으로 하는 연구에서 낮은 자기통제력, 사이버폭력 친구와의 접촉, 사이버폭력 피해경험을 주요 원인들로 고려하고 이때 인터넷윤리의식이 그 원인들의 작용에 통제효과를 갖는지를 알고자 했다. 이에 사이버폭력에 대한 원인요인과 통제요인 간의 상호작용효과에 관한 통합모델을 구성하고 이에 낮은 자기통제력, 사이버폭력 친구와의 접촉, 피해경험과 인터넷윤리의식과의 각각의 상호작용효과 및 또 다른 통제요인으로 공식처벌인지와 부모와의 유대와의 상호작용효과도 살펴보았다. 서울시 대학생 대상 조사의 분석결과 원인요인으로는 사이버폭력 친구와의 접촉과 사이버폭력 피해경험이 유의미한 영향을 미쳤고 통제요인 중에서는 인터넷윤리의식만이 중요한 설명요인이었다. 즉 스마트폰을 이용한 사이버폭력의 경험이 있는 친구와 사귈수록, 그리고 사이버폭력의 피해경험이 있을수록 사이버폭력으로 이어질 가능성이 높으며, 높은 인터넷윤리의식을 가지는 경우 사이버폭력을 저지를 가능성이 낮다는 것을 제시했다. 그리고 무엇보다 통합모델의 검증을 위한 사이버폭력의 원인요인과 통제요인들 간의 상호작용효과를 살펴보면 인터넷윤리의식은 사이버폭력 친구와의 접촉과 피해경험의 작용에 통제효과를 보였고, 부모유대는 친구와의 접촉의 작용에 통제효과를 보였다. 그러나 공식처벌인지는 모든 원인요인에 있어 유의미한 통제효과를 보이지 않았다. 이는 인터넷윤리의식이 다른 통제요인과 비교할 때 원인요인의 작용에 주요 통제요인이라는 것을 제시한다.
