在线冲突管理方式是否会影响网络受害的可能性？为了回答这个问题，我们使用了一项针对年轻人和年轻人的在线调查，该调查是从人口统计学上平衡的美国样本中招募的。使用常规活动理论的扩展版本，我们考察了两种冲突解决方式--自助和容忍--如何影响在线用户的目标适宜性，进而影响他们成为网络犯罪受害者的可能性。我们的发现表明，在网上看到敌对行为时采取自救的对抗性冲突解决风格的人，受到伤害的风险增加。然而，容忍网络冲突并不显著影响受害的可能性、其他网络行为和社会人口学特征。
Do online conflict management styles affect the likelihood of cybervictimization? To answer this question, we use an online survey of youth and young adults recruited from a demographically balanced sample of Americans. Using an extended version of routine activity theory, we examine how two conflict resolution styles-self-help and toleration-affect the target suitability of online users and, in turn, their likelihood of being the victim of cybercrime. Our findings demonstrate that individuals who adopt the confrontational conflict resolution style of self-help upon witnessing hostile behavior online are at an increased risk of being victimized. However, tolerating online conflict does not significantly influence the likelihood of victimization, net of other online behaviors and sociodemographic characteristics.
