Resumen

La conducta de los espectadores desempeña un rol esencial en la dinámica del ciberacoso. El presente estudio examinó la relación entre la identidad moral y los estilos de intervención constructiva y agresiva del espectador defensor en el ciberacoso. Participaron 684 (43.3% del sexo masculino, 56.7% del femenino) estudiantes (M edad = 14.3 años, DE = 1.7) de escuelas secundarias y preparatorias públicas del estado de Sonora. Se calculó un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales para analizar las relaciones entre las variables. Se encontró que la identidad moral se relaciona de forma positiva con la intervención constructiva y no se asocia significativamente con la intervención agresiva del espectador defensor. Se concluyó que la identidad moral es un predictor de las intervenciones constructivas de los espectadores defensores en el ciberacoso.
