Cyberbullying is an interpersonal aggression that has emerged due to the rapid development of the Internet. The present study utilized meta-analysis to explore the relationship between personality and cyberbullying. A comprehensive search of relevant databases included 68 studies with 74 independent samples involving 61,405 participants for the meta-analysis. We investigated the main effects of the Big Five and Dark Triad on cyberbullying behavior and explored the potential moderating effects. The results suggested that Conscientiousness and Agreeableness were negatively correlated with cyberbullying. Neuroticism, Machiavellianism, Psychopathy, and Narcissism were positively corelated to cyberbullying. However, Openness and Extroversion were not significantly associated with cyberbullying. Gender, age, and culture moderated the relationships between personality traits and cyberbullying. Overall, risk personality factors (Neuroticism, Machiavellianism, Psychopathy, and Narcissism) exhibit a stronger link to cyberbullying than protective personality factors (Conscientiousness and Agreeableness), and this study expands the General Strain Theory to General Aggression Models to explain the personality mechanisms of cyberbullying.

人格特质与网络欺凌关系的荟萃分析


网络欺凌是由于互联网的快速发展而出现的一种人际攻击行为。本研究利用荟萃分析来探讨人格与网络欺凌之间的关系。对相关数据库的全面检索包括 68 项研究，74 个独立样本，涉及 61,405 名参与者进行荟萃分析。我们研究了大五人格和黑暗三人格对网络欺凌行为的主要影响，并探讨了潜在的调节作用。结果表明，责任心和宜人性与网络欺凌呈负相关。神经质、马基雅维利主义、精神病态和自恋与网络欺凌呈正相关。然而，开放性和外向性与网络欺凌没有显着相关。性别、年龄和文化调节了人格特质与网络欺凌之间的关系。总体而言，风险人格因素（神经质、马基雅维利主义、精神变态和自恋）比保护性人格因素（责任心和宜人性）与网络欺凌的联系更强，这项研究将一般紧张理论扩展到一般攻击模型，以解释网络欺凌的人格机制。
