EU Kids Online IV: European children’s online opportunities, risks and safety
Abstract
EU Kids Online is an international interdisciplinary research network that seeks to enhance knowledge about European children’s online opportunities, risks and safety. The network integrates research expertise across multiple disciplines and methods in more than 30 countries. It sets out to provide empirical evidence on children’s, young people’s and parents’ online experiences. In the years 2018 and 2019 the network carried out a survey of 25,866 children in 20 European countries and in 10 of these countries a shorter parent survey was also carried out (in 7 countries the parent and child answers can be matched). The survey was based on a previous survey carried out by the network in 25 European countries in 2010 allowing for comparisons between the two surveys.
