RESEARCH ON THE PERCEPTION OF CYBERCRIME AMONG PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS

The research "Perception of cybercrime among pupils at the second level of primary schools" was carried out within the framework of the project "Regions for a Safe Internet". It was initially conducted in 2018 and has now been repeated five years later to compare the results. The status at the end of 2023 showed that pupils still have insufficient awareness of what they can or cannot do online, or what behaviour is considered cybercrime.

With the increasing use of information technology among children, the issue of their cyber security is becoming more and more urgent. Almost all second grade primary school students have a social networking account and move in cyberspace on a daily basis. The research on the Perception of Cybercrime among Secondary School Pupils, conducted as part of the Countries for a Safe Internet project at the end of 2023, showed that pupils still have insufficient awareness of what they can or cannot do on the Internet, or what behaviour is considered cybercrime.
