Abstract:
Objective:To explore the relationship among childhood psychological maltreatment,online aggressivebehavior and trait anger in college students.Methods:Totally 442 college students (226males,216 females,aged 16-25 years) were surveyed with the Psychological Maltreatment Scale (PMS),Adolescent Online Aggressive Behavior Scale (AOABS) and Trait Anger Scale (TAS).The bias-corrected percentile bootstrap method was used to analyze the mediating effect of trait anger between childhood psychological maltreatment and online aggressive behavior.Results:The scores of PMS,AOABS and TAS were positively correlated each other(r =0.44,0.37,0.48,Ps ＜0.01).The PMS scores had a significantly direct effect on the AOABS scores,its estimate was 0.27.The PMS scoreshad a significantly indirect effect on the AOABS scores through TAS scores(95％ CI:0.15-0.34).Conclusion:It suggests that the trait anger may be related to childhood psychological maltreatment and online aggressive behavior,and trait anger may play a partial mediating role between childhood psychological maltreatment and online aggressive behaviorin college students.
