===EU Kids Online II===
EU Kids online II was a continuation of EU Kids online I, implemented from 2009 until 2011. The aim was to produce a rigorous, cross-national comparative evidence-base regarding internet usage across Europe. Structured face-to-face interviews with children aged 9-16 years old across 20 member states were contacted.  For a precise and complete picture of children’s experiences, actions and concerns with regard to online risks and safety parents were also interviewed.
During this phase of the program, initial statistical analyses were conducted and the first findings were published in autumn of 2010.
The project was implemented according to four methodological principles:
<br>
(i) a critical approach being required to examine, test and qualify taken-for-granted assumptions regarding the nature, extent and interpretation of online risk, the nature and degree of children’s internet literacy and the effectiveness of parental regulation;
(ii) a contextual approach to identify the social, cultural or individual factors that accounted for differential experiences of, and responses to, risk;<br>
(iii) a child-centered approach to recognize and inform the gap in perspectives and practices between adults and children;<br>
(iv) a comparative approach to identify and analyse similarities and differences in children’s online risk experiences across Europe.
