Best of CSCW

I just received notification yesterday that our paper entitled, “’Preventative’ vs. ‘Reactive:’ How Parental Mediation Influences Teens’ Social Media Privacy Behaviors,” received a best paper honorable mention at CSCW 2015. It is one of the three papers I co-authored and will be presenting in Vancouver in March. We performed a secondary analysis of a Pew Research data set to better understand how different parental mediation strategies (Active Mediation versus Direct Intervention) influenced teens’ online risk-taking and risk-coping behaviors on Facebook.  I would like to congratulate my co-authors Haiyan Jia, Heng Xu, Mary Beth Rosson, and Jack Carroll on our job well done!
