Youth understandings of online privacy and security: A dyadic study of children...
summary
Forty parent–child dyads (children in 3rd–12th grade) complete questionnaires and semi‑structured Zoom interviews; analysis uses iterative coding. Youth across ages can define online privacy and security and give examples; younger kids rely on parents for security while older kids see risks like data theft. Parents mostly use device monitoring and limits, but dyads reporting regular OPS conversations show the most nuanced child understanding. Parental monitoring drops with age; many parents underestimate children's capabilities.
