Abstract

This study was to examine the effect of Displaced aggression and Justice sensitivity(victim sensitivity and penetrator sensitivity) on Cyberbullying tendency in 20s adult, and the moderating role of Justice sensitivity to identify psychological factors affecting a serious social problem, cyberbullying. The online survey was handed to 261 adults in their 20s for a month. First, Simple regression analysis shows that displaced aggression(F=62.55, p<.001) and victim sensitivity(F=29.61, p<.001) predict cyberbullying tendency. Second, hierarchical regression analysis by controlling the effects of sex, the perpetrator sensitivity has been shown to morderate the relationship between displaced aggression and cyberbullying tendencies(F=29.61, p<.001), and the effect of victim sensitivity has not been significant. In conclusion, that future studies need to consider the limitations of this study to ensure that the same results are shown in different age groups and also some approaches such as empathetic understanding could help to reduce cyberbullying.

본 연구는 심각한 사회문제인 사이버불링에 영향을 미치는 심리적 요인을 알아보고 대안을 제시하기 위해 전위된 공격성과 피해자, 가해자 정의민감성이 사이버불링경향성을 예측하는지 살펴보고, 피해자, 가해자 정의민감성이 전위된 공격성과 사이버불링경향성 간의 관계를 조절하는지 확인하였다. 본 연구는 20대 성인 261명을 대상으로 1개월간 온라인 설문조사를 진행하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 단순회귀분석 실시 결과, 전위된 공격성(F=62.55, p<.001)과 피해자 정의민감성(F=29.61, p<.001)이 사이버불링 경향성을 예측하는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 성별의 영향을 통제하여 위계적 회귀분석을 실시한 결과, 가해자 민감성이 전위된 공격성과 사이버불링경향성의 관계를 조절하는 것으로 나타났으며(F=29.61, p<.001) 피해자 민감성의 효과는 유의하지 않았다. 끝으로 본 연구는 향후 연구가 본 연구의 제한점을 고려하여 같은 결과가 다른 연령대 집단에서도 동일하게 나타나는지 확인할 필요가 있으며, 공감적 이해와 같은 접근이 사이버불링경향성을 낮출 수 있을 것임을 제언하였다.
