澳門大學生兒童創傷與網路欺凌的關係

This study focuses on exploring the association between childhood trauma experiences and involvement in cyberbullying behaviors among university students. With the widespread use of the internet, cyberbullying has become a serious issue, and childhood trauma may have profound effects on an individual's psychological development and behavioral patterns. The study involved 221 university students in Macau as the research sample. Using a questionnaire survey method, data were collected on their childhood trauma experiences (e.g., emotional neglect, emotional abuse) and cyberbullying behaviors (including both perpetrator and victim roles), while also incorporating personal and family factors to examine their interrelationships.
The findings revealed that university students who experienced childhood trauma were more likely to engage in cyberbullying behaviors, whether as perpetrators or victims. Additionally, gender differences were observed in participation in cyberbullying. Furthermore, students from single-parent families or those whose parents worked in shift-based jobs were more susceptible to becoming victims of cyberbullying.
Given the scarcity of previous research in Macau on the relationship between childhood trauma and cyberbullying among university students, the results of this study can provide policymakers, higher education institutions, parents, and students with preliminary data and guidance. Moving forward, this research may contribute to improving family relationships, reducing mental health issues among university students caused by various problems, and serving as a reference for future studies.

本研究聚焦於探究大學生群體中，童年創傷經歷與其涉入網路欺凌行為之間的關聯性。隨著網路使用的普及，網路欺凌成為一個嚴重的問題，而兒童時期的創傷經歷可能對個體的心理發展與行為模式產生深遠影響。本研究以221名澳門大學生為研究樣本，通過問卷調查法，收集其童年時期創傷經歷的相關數據（如情感忽視、情感虐待等）以及網路欺凌行為（包括施暴者與受害者角色）的相關數據，並加入個人因素及家庭因素，探討當中的相互影響。 研究結果顯示，兒童時期經歷創傷的大學生有參與網路欺凌行為，無論是作為施暴者還是受害者；其次，性別不同亦有參與網路欺凌行為；再者，單親及父母工作同樣需輪班，均容易成為網路欺凌受害者。 由於以往在澳門甚少有關澳門大學生兒童創傷與網路欺凌關係的相關研究，本研究的結果可以協助政策制定者、大專院校、家長及大學生建立初步的數據及方向。在日後提升家庭關係，減少大學生因各種問題而導致的精神健康狀況，並為未來的研究作參考。
