青少年網路使用、家長介入行為、網路正面行為、網路負面行為

adolescents’ Internet use, parental mediation, educational use of the Internet, online risks

本研究從家長介入的觀點探討其對於青少年在網路上的正面或
危險行為的影響。研究發現家長多以限制型介入為主要策略，但是對於降低青少年在網路上涉及色情與暴力之危險以及社交危險行為並沒有效果。評價型介入著重於家長利用機會教育和青少年討論網路的相關議題，則能正向地影響青少年正面網路使用行為。因此身為家長在面對青少年子女的網路使用行為方面，若能以評價型的介入方法，較能促進青少年的網路的正面使用行為。

This study investigates whether parental mediation can predict Taiwanese adolescents’ positive (educational) and negative (risky) Internet use. Data were collected from a nationwide random sample of 1,959 adolescents aged 9 ~ 17. The results demonstrate that the majority of parents employed higher levels of restrictive mediation strategies than evaluative mediation strategies. Moreover, neither restrictive nor evaluative mediation strategies were associated with reduced negative Internet use. However, evaluative mediation positively predicted educational Internet use. Implications and recommendations for future research are discussed in this paper.
