Since the rise of the network so far,cyber-space has more been a function of a complete "virtual society",but also the reality of social form and social relations embodied.Therefore,in the study of "network aggression",in addition to the network should be concerned about the characteristics,but also from the user's individual characteristics off-line to proceed.However,existing research tends to overemphasize the negative effect of "network" in such events,while ignoring the objective reason of individual characteristics.This study,through the empirical research method,the social learning theory and the theory of attribution as a support,comprehensive analysis of the existing research results,put forward three main research hypotheses "H1: compared to women,men's online aggression behavior higher","H2: There is a significant positive correlation between network dependency and online aggression." " H3: Individual aggression has a significant moderator effect on network dependency and online aggression." and use SPSS 17.0 to study the relationship between above variables regression analysis.In this study,we used a self-test questionnaire with high reliability to measure the questionnaire.We selected Young's Internet addiction scale and integrated the time of network-using to measure the user's network dependency(? = 0.87).The individual aggression scale was Buss-Perry's aggression scale(? = 0.813),verbal attack(? = 0.765),anger(? = 0.774)and hostility(? =0.823)were analyzed by using the factor analysis results and the original scale classification.Online aggression scale was generated according to the Adolescent Online Aggressive Behavior Scale(AOABS)and become a new scale of 7 questions(? = 0.926)with two dimensions "Online Active-aggression Behavior(? = 0.874)" and “Online Passive-aggression Behavior(0.743)”.After the regression analysis and the regulation of the variables were carried out respectively,the following conclusions were drawn:(1)college students' network dependency,individual aggression and Online aggression behavior has no difference on gender.(2)Individual aggression(F = 2.86,sig <0.05)and online aggression(F = 2.973,sig <0.05)were influenced by the network contact category,but the degree of network dependence was not affected by the network contact category significantly.(3)The higher the network dependency of the respondents,the higher the online aggression.In addition,the more aggressive individuals,the online aggression is also higher.(4)The high incidence of online aggression is stronger than online reactive aggression.The higher the attackability of college students and network tools is greater than network reactive aggression.(5)The effect of individual aggression on the dependence of network and the behavior of online aggression is significant,and the two dimensions of speech attack and anger have stronger effect on the attacking behavior of network tool.(6)The aggressive effect of the anger dimension and verbal attack dimension on the online aggression behavior is significant,and the effect of physical aggression dimension and hostility dimension online aggression behavior is not significant.The purpose of this study is to make a meaningful exploration of the relationship between the three through the way of data analysis,to guide the public to have a more objective understanding of the "network",and to provide a theoretical reference for the government to prevent and control the network violence,And for the follow-up academic research to make bedding.
