Internet telah menjadi media utama yang digunakan remaja untuk kebutuhan pendidikan. Oleh karena itu, orang tua mau tidak mau memberikan fasilitas internet kepada remaja. Dengan adanya fasilitas pribadi, internet juga digunakan sebagai media mencari informasi, hiburan, komunikasi, dan bertransaksi. Hal ini menjadi masalah bagi orang tua karena internet dapat memberikan dampak negatif seperti terpaparnya konten-konten negatif, cyberbullying, dan ketergantungan internet. Oleh karena itu, parental mediation perlu dilakukan menjaga penggunaan internet pada remaja untuk memaksimalkan dampak positif dan meminimalisir dampak negatif internet. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan gambaran mengenai parental mediation seperti apa yang digunakan oleh orang tua terhadap anak-anak remaja mereka yang merupakan pengguna internet serta faktor apa saja yang mempengaruhinya. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan melakukan wawancara semi tersruktur pada tiga ibu yang memiliki anak berusia dua belas hingga dua puluh satu tahun dan memiliki akses internet sendiri. Ibu menjadi fokus peneliti karena ibu memiliki waktu lebih banyak dibandingkan ayah dalam membesarkan, mengurus, dan mendisiplinkan anak.Hasil penelitian kemudian dianalisis menggunakan teknik analisis konten. Peneliti juga melakukan triangulasi kepada anak dari setiap orang tua untuk meningkatkan validitas data. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa orang tua menerapkan kelima strategi parental mediation terutama strategi active mediation of internet use dan active mediation of internet safety. Penelitian juga menunjukkan bahwa parental mediation dipengaruhi oleh empat faktor yaitu kemampuan orang tua dalam menggunakan internet, karakteristik perkembangan anak, persepsi orang tua terhadap kontrol diri anak, dan sikap orang tua terhadap internet.

Introduction. The purpose of this study was to explore healthcare provider training, comfort, and provision of internet safety counseling. Prior research has demonstrated increased parental concern regarding the pervasive access to the internet by children, including the potential impacts of risky internet behavior and adverse media exposure. Methods. A self-reported survey was provided to a convenience sample of 31 healthcare providers during a mental health training seminar. Responses were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results. Internet safety counseling, especially regarding risky online behavior, was not a focal point of provider-patient interaction in the sample population. This finding was reinforced with more than half of the respondents indicating that they infrequently or never provide internet safety counseling (n = 17, 56%). While research has placed an emphasis on the importance of discussing the risks of exposure to violence, drugs, and sexually explicit media online, this study found that the topics most often discussed were setting time limits (77%), limiting access to media devices (67%), and supervising internet use (50%). This may be due in part to the fact that most respondents (n = 17, 57%) reported never receiving training on internet safety counseling. Conclusions. Overall, significant deficits were identified in internet safety counseling training for professionals and provision of education for families. These finding were inconsistent with the American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations around media use counseling and a point of urgent concern given the increasing time spent on media devices, particularly during the COVID pandemic.

This article explores how metaphors about what the internet is inform policymaker and industry discourses, when they propose solutions on internet safety. More specifically, it analyzes documents by key players in this debate during a period when the UK government proposed direct regulation of online harms. The study finds that policy documents construct the internet primarily as a “place” that is separate from offline experience; and to a smaller extent as a “tool” that can be abused if it falls in the wrong hands. The article argues that these constructions obscure any links between online and offline risk, and that they legitimize solutions which may not take into account the social roots of online harms. It also suggests that the discourses of policymakers and SNS companies differ in the degree of agency they attribute to users, indicating a discrepancy in their approaches as direct regulation is introduced in the UK.

Objectives: Cyberbullying is increasingly recognised as a threat for young people’s mental health. Young people and their families may not know how to stay safe online or how to respond following unsafe internet experiences. This study aimed to examine Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) staff perceived knowledge, practice and attitudes towards cyberbullying (CB) and internet safety (IS), and their training needs. Methods: A descriptive, survey design was used. 59 CAMHS clinicians completed a study specific online survey examining their knowledge, practice, attitudes and training needs regarding CB and IS. Frequency and descriptive statistics were conducted on participant responses. Results: Clinicians reported that risky internet behaviour and CB were frequent experiences reported by youth attending their clinical practice. Professionals were aware of potential adverse effects on the young person, including social withdrawal, low self-esteem, anxiety, self-injurious behaviour and suicidal thoughts. Training for young people on online behaviour and good digital citizenship skills was a highly endorsed preference. The majority of respondents felt CAMHS staff have a role in supporting families and managing IS and identified training and resource materials as strategies to assist them in this regard. Conclusions: Findings support a need for clinicians to regularly inquire about internet use, safety and adverse online experiences. The ongoing development of resources and training in CB and IS for CAMHS clinicians, children and caregivers is necessary. Further research is warranted due to the small sample size and the subjective nature of the current study.

The aim of this research is to examine the digital citizenship studies in the literature in terms of research subject, research method and research group. In this direction, the study attempts to present the perspective for future researchers by identifying the trends of digital citizenship studies. Research articles were evaluated by content analysis method. Research articles were searched in EBSCO, ERIC, Taylor and Francis ve SCOPUS databases. Database searches were performed using keywords such as “Digital citizenship”, “Digital citizenship education”, “Digital citizenship in schools”, “Digital citizenship scale”, “Digital citizenship in curriculum”, “Digital age”, “Digital technologies”, “Internet safety”. 119 research articles were reached. When the digital citizenship studies are examined, there are theoretical studies on the dimensions of digital citizenship, digital citizenship teaching, and scale development studies for determining the level of digital citizenship. In this study, literature review, survey and case study were benefited as research methods. Undergraduate students and adults stand out as research groups. There is a need for experimental studies on digital citizenship education and evaluation of students studying in primary and secondary schools.

Rapid Internet use growth and applications of diverse military have managed researchers to develop smart systems to help applications and users achieve the facilities through the provision of required service quality in networks. Any smart technologies offer protection in interactions in dispersed locations such as, e-commerce, mobile networking, telecommunications and management of network. Furthermore, this article proposed on intelligent feature selection methods and intrusion detection (ISTID) organization in webs based on neuron-genetic algorithms, intelligent software agents, genetic algorithms, particulate swarm intelligence and neural networks, rough-set. These techniques were useful to identify and prevent network intrusion to provide Internet safety and improve service value and accuracy, performance and efficiency. Furthermore, new algorithms of intelligent rules-based attributes collection algorithm for efficient function and rules-based improved vector support computer, were proposed in this article, along with a survey into the current smart techniques for intrusion detection systems.
