The authors conducted a UK nationally representative survey of 2,000 parents and 1,000 children. We also conducted qualitative research with children aged 15 and 16. The findings are structured into four sections. First, it was examined how frequently children report different types of harm and how reporting rates vary across different platforms. Next, it was explored in what way children understand how to block and report harmful content, along with their perceptions of what happens after a report is submitted. It was then investigated why children may choose not to report harmful content. Finally, the researchers assessed both children’s and parents’ satisfaction with the reporting process and highlight areas where improvements are needed.https://www.internetmatters.org/hub/research/understanding-and-improving-how-children-report-online-harm/Share this: Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook Click to share on X (Opens in new window) X Like this:Like Loading...
