ABSTRACT

This study investigated the gender-specific effects of social achievement goals – i.e., social development goals, social demonstration approach goals, and social demonstration avoid goals – on bullying perpetration in a sample of 788 adolescents (53.3% girls), taking into account the mediating role of sense of belonging and non-inclusive group norms. Two-group structural equation modeling results indicated that social demonstration approach goals positively predicted bullying perpetration for both genders. For girls, higher social development goals and for boys, higher social avoidance goals decreased bullying perpetration. Gender-specific effects of belonging and non-inclusive group norms on bullying perpetration occurred. For boys, non-inclusive group norms mediated the relation between all social achievement goals and bullying perpetration. Implications for future research and (gender-sensitive) bullying interventions are discussed.

摘要

这项研究调查了788名青少年（53.3％的女孩）样本中社会成就目标（即社会发展目标，社会示威方式目标和社会示威避免目标）对欺凌行为的性别影响。归属感和非包容性群体规范的作用。两组结构方程建模结果表明，社会示范方法目标积极预测了男女的欺凌行为。对于女孩，较高的社会发展目标，对于男孩，较高的社会回避目标减少了欺凌行为。归属和非包容性群体规范对欺凌行为的性别影响。对于男孩来说，非包容性群体规范介导了所有社会成就目标与欺凌行为之间的关系。
