  text: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:sec><jats:title>Introduction</jats:title><jats:p>In
    Europe, most Internet searches for school‐related tasks are situated at home,
    where parents can support adolescents. Although the frequency (quantity) of parental
    support has already been analyzed, a research gap exists concerning the quality
    of parental support in adolescents' information‐related Internet use. The quality
    of parental support in the field of homework involvement is known to be a predictor
    of adolescents' learning motivation and academic achievement, often discussed
    with regard to self‐determination theory (SDT) in terms of autonomy support, structure,
    emotional support, and control. These categories were adapted in this study to
    analyze parents' support in adolescents' Internet searching activities.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods</jats:title><jats:p>Using
    a mixed‐methods approach, we combined quantitative questionnaires and qualitative
    observations to analyze joint information‐related Internet uses. Therefore, 243
    parent–adolescent dyads were surveyed and six parent–adolescent dyads were observed
    by videography in 2019/2020 in Germany. The adolescents were 11 years old, on
    average.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results</jats:title><jats:p>The
    parents rated all qualities higher than the adolescents. Emotional support was
    rated highest by both groups, whereas structure was rated lowest. Adolescents' and
    parents' view on parental support differ. The qualitative study revealed parents' often
    interfering behavior, whereas emotional support was low. Further, the active role
    of adolescents was highlighted in both quantitative and qualitative data.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title><jats:p>By
    combining quantitative and qualitative approaches, we demonstrated a fruitful
    application of SDT in analyzing the quality of parental support during adolescents' Internet
    searches at home and shed light on the co‐construction of joint Internet searches.</jats:p></jats:sec>
