Abstract

The purpose of this study was to mediating role of anger in relationship perceived social support with cyber bullying-victimization girl adolescents. The descriptive- correlation method was used. The statistical population of this study was all high school girl students in Tehran in the academic year 2020-2021. In this study, according to convenience sampling method (online method), 272 girl students by formula Kline (2015) were selected as samples and they were asked to cyber-bullying/victimization experiences questionnaire (CBVEQ) of Antoniadou and et al (2016), multidimensional perceived social support scale (MSPSS) of Zimet and et al (1988) and children’s inventory of anger (CHIA) of Nelson and Finch (2000). Then the proposed model was analyzed through structural equation modeling using SPSS and AMOS version 24 and bootstrap method in Macro Preacher and Hayes (2004) program. The results showed that perceived social support (t = -22.668; sig = 0.001) and anger (t = 3.379; sig = 0.001) have a direct effect on cyber bullying. Also, perceived social support (t = 20.264; sig = 0.001) and anger (t = 4.083; sig = 0.001) also have a direct effect on cyberbullying. In addition, the indirect effects of perceived social support through the mediating role of anger on cyber bullying-victimization were significant and the model had a good fit (RMSEA = 0.061 and P-value <0.05). It can be concluded that attention to perceived social support and anger in girl students is necessary to identify the factors affecting their cyber bullying-victimization.
