Abstract
This study aimed to examine the effects of elementary school students’s parents-child communication (PCC) on their cyber bullying and to investigate the multi-mediating effects of their school adjustment resilience(SAR) and aggression on those effects. From two elementary schools in capital area, 617 4-6th students were surveyed about their PCC, SAR, aggression and cyber bullying. The gathered data were analyzed by Structural Equation Modeling(SEM). The important results of the study were as follows. First, elementary school students’ negative PCC increased their cyber bullying through complete medication of SAR and aggression. Second, elementary school students’ low SAR and aggression could increase cyber bullying directly as well as indirectly. Third, multi-mediating effects analysis found the three paths from PCC to cyber bullying: ‘PCC → SAR → cyber bullying’ , ‘PCC → aggression → cyber bullying’, ‘PCC → SAR → aggression → cyber bullying’. This study provides insights regarding how to devise effective cyber bullying prevention and intervention programs for elementary school students.
