Gençlerde Teknoloji Bağımlılığı, Siber Mağduriyet, Siber Zorbalık ve Benlik Saygısı Arasındaki Karmaşık Bağlantının Çözümü: Çok Yönlü Bir Çalışma

Öz

Çalışma, gençler arasında teknoloji bağımlılığı, siber zorbalık, siber kurbanlık ve öz saygı arasındaki karmaşık ilişkileri incelemiştir. Örneklem, Konya’daki üniversitelerden farklı sosyoekonomik düzeylere sahip, çoğunluğu kadın olan 335 lisans öğrencisinden oluşmuştur. Sosyal medya, web sayfaları, dijital uygulamalar ve çevrimiçi oyunlarda geçirilen zaman gibi tanımlayıcı faktörleri incelemiş ve bu faktörlerin öngörücü gücünü korelasyon ve hiyerarşik regresyon analizleri aracılığıyla değerlendirmiştir. Bulgular, öz saygının doğrudan siber zorbalığı tahmin etmediğini, çevrimiçi oyun bağımlılığı ve siber kurbanlığın daha önemli tahmin ediciler olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Sürekli oyun oynama alışkanlığına sahip öğrencilerin teknoloji bağımlılığı puanları daha yüksek gözlemlenmiştir. Ayrıca, erkekler siber zorbalık ve siber kurbanlık için daha yüksek ortalama puanlar gösterirken, kadınların öz saygı için anlamlı derecede daha yüksek ortalama puanları olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Sürekli oyun oynayanlar ve sosyal medya üyeleri, siber zorbalık ve siber kurbanlık için daha yüksek ortalama puanlar sergilemiştir. Son olarak, siber kurbanlık, öz saygı ile teknoloji bağımlılığı arasındaki ilişkiyi anlamlı bir şekilde aracılık etmektedir; bu da siber kurbanlığın ele alınmasının öz saygıyı dolaylı olarak artırabileceği ve teknoloji bağımlılığını azaltabileceğini önermektedir. Çalışmanın sınırlılıkları arasında çalışmanın tanımlayıcı doğası ve başa çıkma mekanizmaları ile stres seviyeleri için ölçümlerin eksikliği yer almaktadır. Çalışma, bu olguların farklı yaş grupları arasındaki uzunlamasına özelliklerini anlamak için daha kapsamlı analizlere ihtiyaç duyulduğunu vurgulamaktadır.

Unravelling the Complex Nexus Between Technology Addiction, Cyber Victimization, Cyber Bullying, and Self-Esteem among Young People: A Multifaceted Study

Öz

This study examined the complex relationships between technology addiction, cyberbullying, cyber victimization, and self-esteem among young individuals. The sample consisted of 335 undergraduate students—mostly female—from universities in Konya with diverse socioeconomic backgrounds. The study analyzed descriptive factors such as time spent on social media, websites, digital applications, and online gaming and assessed their predictive power through correlation and hierarchical regression analyses. Findings revealed that self-esteem did not directly predict cyberbullying, while online gaming addiction and cyber victimization emerged as more significant predictors. Students with habitual gaming behavior exhibited higher technology addiction scores. Additionally, male participants showed significantly higher mean scores for both cyberbullying and cyber victimization, whereas female participants had significantly higher mean scores for self-esteem. Those who regularly played games or used social media also reported higher levels of cyberbullying and victimization. Importantly, the study found that cyber victimization significantly mediated the relationship between self-esteem and technology addiction, suggesting that addressing cyber victimization may indirectly enhance self-esteem and reduce technology dependency. The study’s limitations include its descriptive nature and the absence of measures related to coping mechanisms and stress levels. The study emphasizes the need for more comprehensive analyses to understand the longitudinal characteristics of these phenomena across different age groups.
