Abstract
Students in middle and high school were invited to participate in focus groups to explore the perception and feelings regarding internet risk and behavior. It was the goal of this study to explore reasons for responses on the quantitative instrument, determine the context and depth of the responses, and provide a deeper interpretation of the results gathered. These are the three fundamental strengths of qualitative research (Morgan, 1998). The findings reveal limits of knowledge of risk.
