To examine the association between parent-child relationships and bullying behaviors among junior high school students, and to explore the moderating effect of community cohesion, so as to provide evidences for bullying intervention strategies.
From November to December 2017, a cluster sampling method was used to survey 1 589 students in grades 6-8 from three junior high schools in Jing'an District, Shanghai. Anonymous electronic questionnaires collected data on parent-child relationships, community cohesion, and bullying behaviors. Multivariate Logistic regression analyzed the associations and moderation effects.
The prevalence of bullying behaviors among junior high school students was 7.80%. Spearman correlation analysis revealed negative associations between both parent-child relationships (r=-0.13) and community cohesion (r=-0.10) with bullying behaviors, while parent-child relationships positively correlated with community cohesion (r=0.29) (all P < 0.01). Junior high school students with positive parent-child relationships and higher perceived community cohesion showed lower risks of bullying behaviors (OR=0.51, 95%CI=0.36-0.72; OR=0.58, 95%CI=0.45-0.76), with a significant interaction effect between the two factors (all P < 0.05).
Positive parent-child relationships and community cohesion are negatively associated with bullying behaviors in middle school students. Supportive family relationships help reduce bullying, while stronger community cohesion enhances the protective effect of positive parent-child relationships against bullying.
