网络受欺凌对消极情绪的影响:感知严重性的中介作用和马基雅维利主义的调节作用OA北大核心CSSCICSTPCD

Objective:To explore the effect of cyber-victimization on negative emotions and the role of perceived severi-ty and Machiavellianism.Methods:In study 1,557 undergraduates were recruited to complete Cyber Victim Scale,Machia-vellianism Personality Scale,Cyberbullying Severity Scale and Negative Affect Scale to explore the effect of cyber-victim-ization on negative emotions.Study 2 used a single-factor between-subject experimental design(cyber-victimization:exper-imental condition vs control condition)to investigate the causal relationship between cyber-victimization and negative emo-tions.Results:(1)The results of Study 1 showed that cyber-victimization was significantly positively related to negative emotions,and perceived severity played a mediating role in the relationship between them.(2)The relationship between hid-den identity and perceived severity was moderated by Machiavellianism.For high Machiavellians,hidden identity had no significant effect on perceived severity,while for low Machiavellians,hidden identity significantly positively predicted per-ceived severity.(3)Study 2 also found the mediating role of perceived severity.Conclusion:Compared with cyber-victim-ization,perceived severity is a proximal factor affecting victims'negative emotions.
