Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore human factors as the possible facilitator of cyber-dependent (hacking and malware infection) and cyber-enabled (phishing) crimes victimisation and to test the applicability of lifestyle routine activities theory (LRAT) to cybercrime victimisation. Design/methodology/approach: A mixed methods research paradigm was applied to address the research questions and aims. The data set of Crime Survey of England and Wales (CSEW) 2014/2015 and 42 semi-structured interviews conducted with victims of cybercrime and non-victim control group participants were analysed via binary logistic regression and content analyses methods. Findings: This research illustrated that Internet users facilitated their victimisation through their online activities. Additionally, using insecure Internet connections and public access computers emerged as risk factors for both cyber-enabled and cyber-dependent crime victimisation. Voluntary and involuntary personal information disclosure through social networking sites and online advertisement websites increased the likelihood of being a target of phishing. Deviant online activities such as free streaming or peer-to-peer sharing emerged to increase the risk of cyber-dependent crime victimisation. Research limitations/implications: The binary logistic regression analysis results suggested LRAT as a more suitable theoretical framework for cyber-dependent crime victimisation. Future research may test this result with models including more macro variables. Practical implications: Policymakers may consider implementing regulations regarding limiting the type of information required to login to free Wi-Fi connections. Checking trust signs and green padlocks may be effective safeguarding measures to lessen the adverse impacts of impulsive buying. Originality/value: This study empirically illustrated that, besides individual-level factors, macro-level factors such as electronic devices being utilised to access the Internet and data breaches of large companies also increased the likelihood of becoming the victim of cyber-enabled and cyber-dependent crime.

探索网络支持和依赖网络的犯罪受害中的人为因素：生活方式常规活动方法

目的：本研究的目的是探索人为因素作为网络依赖（黑客和恶意软件感染）和网络支持（网络钓鱼）犯罪受害的可能促进因素，并测试生活方式日常活动理论 (LRAT) 对网络犯罪的适用性受害。设计/方法/方法：应用混合方法研究范式来解决研究问题和目标。通过二元逻辑回归和内容分析方法分析了英格兰和威尔士犯罪调查 (CSEW) 2014/2015 的数据集以及对网络犯罪受害者和非受害者对照组参与者进行的 42 次半结构化访谈。调查结果：这项研究表明，互联网用户通过他们的在线活动促进了他们的受害。此外，使用不安全的互联网连接和公共访问计算机成为启用网络和依赖网络的犯罪受害的风险因素。通过社交网站和在线广告网站自愿和非自愿披露个人信息增加了成为网络钓鱼目标的可能性。免费流媒体或点对点共享等异常在线活动的出现增加了依赖网络的犯罪受害的风险。研究局限性/意义：二元逻辑回归分析结果表明，LRAT 是更适合网络犯罪受害的理论框架。未来的研究可能会使用包含更多宏观变量的模型来测试这一结果。实际影响：政策制定者可能会考虑实施有关限制登录免费 Wi-Fi 连接所需信息类型的法规。检查信任标志和绿色挂锁可能是减轻冲动购买不利影响的有效保障措施。原创性/价值：本研究实证表明，除了个人层面的因素外，宏观层面的因素，如电子设备上网、大公司的数据泄露等，也增加了成为网络化和网络化受害者的可能性。 -依赖犯罪。
