Abstract

This study examined the implicit aggression of Chinese undergraduates who were involved and not involved in indirect bullying. The participants consisted of 36 Chinese undergraduates, and the revised version of Olweus Bully/Victim Questionnaire for Chinese was adopted. Indirect bullying situational pictures and responding situational pictures to the pictures (aggression and non-aggression) were used to investigate undergraduates’ automatic responses in the memory-guided saccade paradigm based on eye movement technology. The results showed that indirect bullies preferred to aggressive responses. It indicated that indirect bullies were more implicitly aggressive than victims and undergraduates who were not involved. The paper suggests that indirect bullies should be informed how to release their implicit aggression appropriately.
