ABSTRACT

This study aims to analyse the relationship between moral disengagement mechanisms, aggression and bullying behaviour in 221 high school students between 11 and 17 years who took the Mechanisms of Moral Disengagement Questionnaire, The Aggression Questionnaire and the School Bullying Questionnaire. Findings suggest significant positive correlations (p < .001) between aggressive, bullying behaviour and moral disengagement. Structural equation modelling shows that moral disengagement explains 14% the variance in verbal aggression and 34% the variance in physical aggression. Moral disengagement and verbal aggression explain 10% the variance of negative symptoms related to anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress and effects on self-esteem. Finally, moral disengagement, negative symptoms, physical and verbal aggression explain 65% the variance of bullying behaviour. These findings can support the development of new and effective educational interventions.

摘要

本研究旨在分析 221 名 11 至 17 岁高中生的道德脱离机制、攻击和欺凌行为之间的关系，他们采用道德脱离机制调查问卷、攻击调查问卷和校园欺凌调查问卷。研究结果表明显着正相关（p< .001) 介于攻击性、欺凌行为和道德脱离之间。结构方程模型表明，道德脱离可以解释 14% 的言语攻击方差和 34% 的身体攻击方差。道德脱离和言语攻击解释了 10% 与焦虑、抑郁、创伤后压力和自尊影响相关的负面症状的差异。最后，道德脱离、消极症状、身体和语言攻击解释了 65% 的欺凌行为差异。这些发现可以支持开发新的有效的教育干预措施。
