Abstract Background The internet has become the most widely used medium among teenagers, who spend much of their time online, which raises parental concerns. Notwithstanding teens’ increased internet use and exposure to online risks, little is yet known about parental internet mediation in local settings. The present research aimed to assess the various dimensions of parental mediation to regulate teens’ use of the internet and their predictors. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted in the district of Lahore, Pakistan, among mothers/female caregivers of teens (aged 13–19 years). Only women were interviewed because they are more frequently engaged as primary caregivers than fathers or male caregivers. Furthermore, only qualified and working mothers from the top two professions among women, i.e. academia and medicine, were interviewed. A stratified random sampling technique was adopted, and 347 mothers were interviewed using face-to-face interviews at 11 universities and 11 hospitals/medical colleges. Data were entered and analysed using descriptive, bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. Results The findings highlighted that more than 65% of respondents applied highly active mediation of internet safety, around 60% used highly active co-use mediation and more than 56% applied restrictive mediation. In addition, 36% of respondents monitored and 15.3% technically mediated to regulate their teens’ use of the internet. The results of the multivariate logistic regression revealed that the majority of respondents were more inclined to adopt active internet safety mediation if they had teens aged 16–19 years, with medium internet addiction, possessed good digital skills, felt confident about their teens’ coping appraisal to perform online protection, and considered their teens to have high self-esteem and resilience. Conclusions This research found that parental internet mediation is a multifaceted concept used to regulate teens’ online activity and enhance a resilient approach to reduce the risks associated with use of the internet. The researchers recommend developing parental guidelines, e-safety resource material, local support networks and community programmes to educate parents, teachers and teens in order to raise awareness and promote resilient pathways amongst teens.

Role Of Parents

The internet has transformed the way youth communicate, learn, and network, with implications for their broader social, psychological, and physical health and well-being. With the technological capability of accessing the internet from anywhere, at any time, paired with the enormous variety of internet activities in which youth engage—from social networking to chatting to streaming videos to playing games to watching television content—instances of problematic internet behavior have emerged. We conducted an online national survey of 629 US adolescents ages 12–17 years old and a matching survey of one of their parents. We investigated the relationship between problematic internet behavior and parental monitoring, parental mediation of internet use, and parental estimates of their adolescent’s time spent using computers. Analyses showed that problematic internet use was associated with less parental monitoring and parental mediation and poorer parental relationships. Adolescents that spent a lot of time on the computer were also more likely to engage in problematic internet use. Although we cannot determine the direction of the relationships, results support the important role of parents in adolescents’ problematic internet use.

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.
