Welcome and thank you for your interest in participating in this survey.

We are a student research team from the Diploma in Psychology Studies at Temasek Polytechnic, conducting this research for our student project. We are interested to understanding how parents with young children aged 8 to 12 years old regulate their child’s digital involvement.

This survey would take approximately 30 minutes to complete. In the survey, you will be asked to provide information about your experiences as a parent in regulating your child’s digital involvement. You will also be asked about your child’s engagement and behaviours associated with their usage and interaction with these digital devices and platforms. There is little to no risk involved in participating in this study. 

As a compensation for your participation, you will receive a $10 NTUC voucher upon the completion of this survey. This study is strictly voluntary, and you may withdraw from the survey at any point in time. However, please note that you will not receive the $10 NTUC voucher should you choose to withdraw from the survey halfway. 

Please be rest assured that all your responses provided will be kept strictly anonymous and confidential. Your responses will not be linked with any of your personal information and will not be shared with anyone outside the research team. Results of this survey will be presented in an aggregate form, in terms of overall statistics, and thus, no individual data will be revealed.

Your responses and input are important in helping us understand the approaches that parents take towards their child’s digital involvement, and the possible effects of these approaches on the child. The findings will be useful for organisations to formulate the content of the outreach programs that aims to educate parents on how to regulate their child’s digital involvement.
