Abstract

The study examines the parental perception of the use of video games by their preadolescent children, as well as parental beliefs, mediation practices and difficulties they encounter. In total, 186 parents have participated. The results, gathered in the quantitative and qualitative phase, reveal differences in parental perception according to the age and sex of their children; parents have more negative than positive beliefs about video games and use more strategies based on control than on support and communication. In parents’ opinion, the difficulties for mediation are related to the precocity to which they access the media and Internet, social pressure, uncontrollability and the digital divide. The paper concludes with implications for the educational intervention aimed to respond to parents’ concerns and needs for information and training.

电子游戏、父母调解和性别社会化

这项研究考察了父母对青春期前儿童使用电子游戏的看法，以及父母的信仰、调解实践和他们遇到的困难。总共有186名家长参加了活动。在定量和定性阶段收集的结果显示，父母对孩子的看法因孩子的年龄和性别而异；父母对电子游戏的消极信念多于积极信念，使用更多基于控制而非支持和沟通的策略。在父母看来，调解的困难与他们过早接触媒体和互联网、社会压力、无法控制和数字鸿沟有关。论文最后对旨在回应家长对信息和培训的关注和需求的教育干预提出了启示。
