Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the mediating effect of embitterment in the relations between victimization of gender discrimination and cyber violence of women in their 20s. For this purpose, participants were recruited from online websites and social network services commonly used by female adults. The self-report data of 249 participants was analyzed. The results indicate that victimization of gender discrimination did not have a direct effect on cyber violence; however, the mediating effect of embitterment was significant in the relationship between victimization of gender discrimination and cyber violence. In other words, although womens’ experience of receiving unfair treatment due to their gender status did not predict the perpetration of cyber violence by itself, it contributed to the perpetration of cyber violence through increased embitterment.

Data from 288 working mothers were analyzed via SPSS 26.0 and SPSS PROCESS Macro (v.3.5). First, work-family conflict was negatively related to grit, social support and life satisfaction. Grit was positively correlated with social support and life satisfaction. and social support was positively correlated with life satisfaction. Second, the relationship between work-family conflict and life satisfaction was partially mediated by social support. Third, grit moderated the effect of work-family conflict on life satisfaction. Fourth, the mediated moderation effect of grit in the relationship between work-family conflict, social support from family, and life satisfaction was statistically significant. For social support from colleagues, the interaction effect of work-family conflict and grit was not significant This study is meaningful in that it explained the mediating effect of social support as work-family conflicts affect life satisfaction of working mothers. Specifically, the study revealed that grit, a personal psychological characteristic of working mothers, can help increase life satisfaction in the context of high work-family conflict.
