Abstract Details

2021, Bachelor of Science, Walsh University, Honors.
Parents with children in 5th -12th grade (N=80) responded to instruments measuring the relationship between their perceived knowledge, attitudes, and internet safety strategies with respect to the topic of pornography, as well the quality of communication that parents have with their child. Results showed that when parents possessed higher perceived knowledge of pornography, they were stronger in their belief that it was negative and that there is a need for restrictions. Furthermore, an increase in perceived knowledge of pornography was associated with an increase in the use of internet safety strategies. Multiple regression analysis suggests that the increase in the use of internet safety strategies as perceived knowledge increased showed to be much greater for parents that possessed a low quality of communication with their reference child. The implications of the findings as well as suggestions for future research are discussed throughout.
