1、 Preface

Through a campus bullying incident, the social attention to the issue of student bullying was raised, and the dual impact of bullying on the psychological well-being of victims was analyzed. The shortcomings of academic research in correcting the behavior of bullies were pointed out. Emphasizing the importance of preventing student bullying, it is believed that immature psychological development in adolescents is one of the reasons for aggressive behavior. Propose to study the relationship between adolescent dark personality tendencies and bullying behavior, explore effective pathways for social work intervention, and promote the healthy growth of adolescents.

2、 Literature review and research hypotheses

The study of student bullying originated from Professor L. Burk and was later systematized by Dan Olweus, characterized by malice, unequal power, and repetition. Chinese research started late, and Professor Zhang Wenxin defined bullying as aggressive behavior characterized by an imbalance of power. The Ministry of Education has clearly defined bullying behavior, and the academic community has adopted Buss and Perry's attack questionnaire, which has been revised by Chinese scholars. Dark personality was proposed by Paulhus and Williams, including Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy, and is associated with antisocial behavior. The DTDD questionnaire is a commonly used measurement tool. The research hypothesis explores the impact of dark personality on adolescent aggression, including the positive effects of Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy.

3、 Research Methods

Introduced research methods, including survey tools, survey subjects, and statistical analysis. The survey tools include the Chinese version of the Dark Personality Inventory (DTID) and the Attack Behavior Scale, both of which have high reliability and validity. The survey was conducted on a high school student in Zouping, Binzhou City, Shandong Province, using convenience sampling. A total of 500 questionnaires were distributed and 314 were collected. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS software, including common method bias test, descriptive analysis, Pearson correlation analysis, and regression analysis, to explore the impact of dark personality traits on adolescent aggression tendency.

4、 Research results

The common method deviation test shows that there is no significant deviation in the data; Descriptive analysis shows that except for "current guardians", other variable data are normally distributed, and adolescent aggression tendency data is normally distributed with a mean below average; Correlation analysis shows that Machiavellianism, narcissism, mental illness, and adolescent aggression tendencies are positively correlated; Regression analysis confirmed the significant impact of the three dimensions of dark personality on adolescent aggression, and the hypothesis holds, indicating a positive correlation between dark personality traits and willingness to engage in aggressive behavior.

5、 Conclusion and Implications

Research has revealed a significant positive correlation between dark personality traits and adolescent aggression, with Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy all closely associated with the occurrence of bullying behavior in students. Machiavellians tend to use language and relational attacks, narcissists may engage in aggressive behavior due to shame and anger, while psychopaths may engage in attacks due to self centeredness and lack of empathy. The study provides theoretical guidance for social work and suggests reducing the incidence of student bullying incidents by supplementing professional teams, providing basic services, supportive work, and professional work, and creating a harmonious and stable campus environment for young people. Specific measures include psychological health monitoring, protective knowledge training, home school cooperation, construction of public welfare consultation platforms, as well as psychological counseling and counseling.
