Abstract:
Purpose:This study aims to analyze the mediation role that impulsivity plays between social stigma and SNS cyberbullying when moderated by parental attachment.
Methods:This study is a secondary analysis using the raw data from panel survey of adolescents who have dropped out of school provided by the Korea Youth Policy Research Institute, and the total number of samples is 576 cases. SPSS V.25 and PROCESS macro for SPSS V.3.5.2 were used for data analysis.
Results:In the relationship between social stigma and SNS cyberbullying behavior, impulsivity showed a statistically significant positive completely mediating effect. Parental attachment was found to control impulsivity as a parameter and SNS cyberbullying as a dependent variable, and thus the mediated moderating effect was verified.
Conclusion:Based on the results of this study, it was confirmed that parental attachment plays a role as a regulatory mechanism to lower impulsivity. More specifically, in controlling impulsivity caused by the social stigma of school-dropped adolescents, support based on parental attachment of parents is absolutely necessary.
