本文从理性选择的角度介绍了对网络滥用受害者采取的自我保护行为（SPB）进行混合方法检查的结果。来自美国成年人样本的数据 (N=746documentclass[12pt]{minimal} usepackage{amsmath} usepackage{wasysym} usepackage{amsfonts} usepackage{amssymb} usepackage{amsbsy} usepackage{mathrsfs} usepackage{upgreek} setlength{oddsidemargin}{-69pt} egin{document}$$N = 746$$end{document}）对在线选择加入小组的成员进行了分析，首先使用开放式响应的主题分析来区分网络滥用受害者采用的 SPB 类型。然后，我们使用贝叶斯变量选择的逻辑回归和随机搜索算法确定了与采用 SPB 的可能性增加相关的因素以及特定的 SPB 类型。在六种已识别的 SPB 类型中，调整隐私设置是最常见的响应，而提高安全性（例如更改密码等）是最不常见的 SPB。报告称受害影响高于平均感知水平、受到陌生人虐待、在线活动受到监视或遭受多种类型虐待的老年受害者采用 SPB 的可能性明显更大。我们的研究结果为互联网用户教育和防止网络滥用受害者提供了策略。
This paper presents the findings from a mixed-methods examination of self-protective behaviours (SPBs) adopted by victims of cyber abuse from the rational choice perspective. The data from a sample of the U.S. adults (N=746documentclass[12pt]{minimal} usepackage{amsmath} usepackage{wasysym} usepackage{amsfonts} usepackage{amssymb} usepackage{amsbsy} usepackage{mathrsfs} usepackage{upgreek} setlength{oddsidemargin}{-69pt} egin{document}$$N = 746$$end{document}), members of an online opt-in panel, were analysed to first distinguish the types of SPBs adopted by victims of cyber abuse using a thematic analysis of open-ended responses. We then identified the factors associated with an increased likelihood of adopting SPBs and the specific identified types of SPBs using logistic regression with Bayesian variable selection and a stochastic search algorithm. Of the six identified types of SPBs, adjusting privacy settings was the most commonly reported response, and improving security (e.g. changing passwords, etc.) was the least common SPB. Older victims who reported higher than the average perceived impact from victimisation, were abused by a stranger and experienced either surveillance of their online activities or multiple types of abuse, were significantly more likely to adopt an SPB. Our findings inform strategies for both Internet user education and for preventing cyber abuse victimisation.
