From the user's perspective: Perceptions of risk relative to benefit associated with using the Internet
作者：
Highlights：
• Users generated 35 Internet actions they say they take on the Internet.
• Users provided frequency ratings, risk perceptions, and benefits for each action.
• We compared user rated risk perceptions to expert ratings of risk for each action.
• Tendency towards risky behavior was unrelated to risk and frequency ratings.
• Younger and older adult users rate risks and gains about the same.
