La Web Reputation dei giovani lombardi. Una ricerca Corecom / OssCom sull'esperienza online e i suoi rischi

[Autom. eng. transl.] The daily experience of children and adolescents is today characterized by the fact of growing in digital environments that provide them with many resources for the construction of identity, socialization, learning and participation. Access to these resources through the Internet is increasingly made possible by personal and mobile technologies such as tablets and smartphones, and is therefore highly individualized. This situation intensifies and transforms some Internet risks such as cyberbullying, sexting and the violation of privacy that children perceive as particularly threatening for their public image on the net, that is, for their web reputation. The research “Web reputation and risky behavior online”, carried out by Ossom - Center of research on media and communication of the Catholic University - for Corecom Lombardia intends to increase the knowledge of the experience that young Lombard people carry out daily online, concentrating the focus on the most popular social media platforms and on the most common communication practices, also in order to identify the most risky behaviors and the most effective strategies in online reputation management.
