The cross-lagged panel network analysis of bullying and psychopathological symptoms among adolescents
Journal Title: Chinese Journal of Nervous and Mental Diseases - Year 2025, Vol 51, Issue 2
Abstract
[Objective] To explore the bi-directional dynamic associations of bullying perpetration and victimisation with psychopathological symptoms in children and adolescents. [Methods] The Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) public dataset was used. Three dimensions of bullying perpetration and victimisation and child-adolescent psychopathological symptoms: attention, externalisation and internalisation were collected from 8413 child-adolescents using the peer experiences questionnaire (EPQ) and the brief problem monitoring (BPM) questionnaire, respectively. Bidirectional dynamic associations between bullying and child-adolescent psychopathological symptoms were analysed using cross-lagged networks. [Results] Bullying implementation to externalising problems was a significant cross-lagged edge (OR=2.36); impulsivity was both the strongest node of out-expected influence (OEI=5.21) and bridge-expected influence (BEI=4.35), and the strongest node of in-expected influence (IEI) was threat of violence (IEI = 5.61). [Conclusion] There is an interaction between bullying and child-adolescent pathology symptoms. Bullying perpetration exacerbates subsequent externalising problems, and impulsivity is the most likely psychopathological symptom to influence both bullying perpetration and externalising internalising problems and it is also the bridging symptom connecting the two.
