Abstract Internet trolling refers to a behavior pattern in which individuals deliberately disrupt normal communication on the internet to trigger negative emotional reactions of other internet users, and then experience the pleasure. The present theories explaining internet trolling mainly include Theory of Lack of Social Context Cues, Self-awareness Model, and Social Identity Model of Deindividuation Effects （SIDE）. The relevant factors that affect internet trolling mainly include demographic factors, individual psychological factors, and network environment factors. In addition, internet trolling will also have an important impact on individual mental health, cognition and behavior performance, as well as the development of cyberspace. Future research should focus on delving into the six aspects as follows： Carrying out research on different types of internet trolling; improving the measurement method of internet trolling; adopting new methods for studying internet trolling; finding out more factors affecting internet trolling; exploring the consequential research on internet trolling; and doing more relevant intervention research.
