  bibo_abstract:
  - Children’s information-related internet use positively affects their acquisition
    of computer- and information-related skills. Nevertheless, this use still occurs
    predominantly in the family context. Parents’ support of their children’s internet
    use can motivate them to use the internet for information-related purposes. However,
    while parents’ support seems to be important, the quantity and quality of parental
    support have been shown to have different associations with children’s motivation.
    Thus, the goal of the current study was to examine the relationship between parents’
    support (quantity and quality), children’s motivation to engage in information-related
    internet use, and children’s actual information-related internet use (practical
    and school- or learning-related use) using structural equation modeling. In addition,
    we examined the mediating effects of children’s motivation. Specifically, 492
    12-year-old German children answered a paper-and-pencil questionnaire. We found
    positive associations between the quantity and quality of parents’ support and
    children’s intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, while only structure-giving support
    was found to be related to children’s intrinsic motivation. The quantity of support
    was directly related to children’s school- or learning-related use, while intrinsic
    motivation was associated with both forms of information-related internet use.
    Furthermore, we confirmed that children’s motivation is an important mediator
    in this context. The implications of these findings for parents and children are
    considered.@eng
