The problem
Intervention: Parental mediation of online media activities through restrictive mediation (limiting access) and active mediation (engagement with children about online content)
Who it was tested with: Children aged 13–18 years and their parents aged 25–55 in Nigeria.
Experience from people who deliver programmes: stories, case studies and lessons learned. Valuable for understanding how and why, and for spotting what to test next, but not a measure of effect.
"Data were obtained through questionnaire from children aged 13–18 years old and their parents aged 25–55 years. Findings of the study show stronger associations between the reports of parents and children... Some of the found associations were positive, this indicates more mediation result in more risky activities." The study measured parent-child pairs on mediation practices and risky outcomes but did not employ a comparison group or randomization, and appears to be cross-sectional rather than longitudinal.
Cross-sectional design prevents causal inference; limited detail on specific mediation practices, types of risky activities, or mechanisms explaining the positive associations found.
