代际关系对中老年人互联网安全意识和行为的影响

摘要/Abstract

摘要：随着互联网在中老年群体中快速普及，中老年人安全上网成为数字时代的重要课题。基于中国老年群体数字鸿沟与数字融入调查的研究发现，与子女关系亲密程度更高的中老年人具有更高的互联网安全意识和更安全的上网行为；数字反哺和主观幸福感在代际关系亲密程度与中老年人互联网安全意识和行为的关系中起中介作用，中老年人跟子女的关系越亲密，就越有可能从子女处接触到防范网络风险的信息和有更高的主观幸福感，进而越有助于提升互联网安全意识并增加安全行为。研究结果深化了在数字时代将代际关系作为潜在资源的认识。在提升中老年人数字素养的相关政策制定中，应充分考虑代际关系的作用，把子女作为重要的力量纳入其中，促进代际关系和谐，倡导子女积极进行数字反哺。

Abstract: With the widespread use of the Internet among middle-aged and older adults, online safety has become an important issue in the digital era. Using data from the Survey on Digital Division and Inclusion of Older Adults in China, this study reveals that middle-aged and older adults with closer relationships with their children tend to have higher cybersecurity awareness and engage in safer online behaviors. Further analysis reveals that digital knowledge transfer from children and subjective well-being mediate the relationship between intergenerational closeness and older adults' cybersecurity awareness and behaviors. Specifically, a closer intergenerational relationship increases the likelihood of middle-aged and older adults receiving risk-prevention information from their children and leads to higher subjective well-being, thereby enhancing their cybersecurity awareness and promoting safer online behaviors. The findings deepen our understanding of intergenerational relationships as a potential resource in the digital era. Policymakers aiming to improve digital literacy among middle-aged and older adults should consider the role of intergenerational ties and actively involve younger generations, fostering harmonious intergenerational relationships and encouraging “active digital reverse mentoring.”
