Cyber Violence, Gender, and Affective and Cognitive Empathy in Adolescents
Lack of empathy may contribute to the commission of cyber violence (Jolliffe and Farrington, 2004). In their analysis of the relationship between gender and empathy, Ang and Goh (2010) found a three-way interaction among gender, affective empathy, and cognitive empathy. The main aim of this research was to compare male and female participants with high/low levels of affective and cognitive empathy in order to determine the effect on cyber violence. A total of 1175 pupils from elementary and high schools filled out The Empathy Questionnaire (Ivanović and Buško, 2008) and The Cyber Violence Inventory (Šincek, Tomašić Humer, Duvnjak, and Milić, 2015). Participants (n=396 ; 202 girls and 194 boys) with results in the first (low) and fourth quartile (high) for their affective and cognitive empathy were compared using MANOVA (2x2x2 ; commission of cyber violence as a dependent variable). After the analysis, two significant interactions were found: first, between affective empathy and gender ; and second, between cognitive empathy and gender. Boys with a low level of empathy (both affective and cognitive) commit more cyber violence than those in the other three groups (boys and girls with a high level of empathy, and girls with a low level of empathy). Additionally, there was no significant difference among the boys and girls with a high level of empathy, and girls with a low level of empathy in terms of their likelihood of committing cyber violence. The results strongly suggest that boys low in affective and/or cognitive empathy are at the greatest risk of committing cyber violence. Therefore, gender sensitive interventions that foster empathy should be implemented.
