The goal of this work is to create and evaluate experiential learning interventions to address privacy and cybersecurity risks at scale, particularly around populations with special privacy and security needs. These experiential learning interventions will provide both instructional content and customizable, realistic simulations of various social media environments in which to practice it; an initial platform for developing these interventions, along with a small set of pilot interventions aimed at general middle school audiences, have already been developed as part of the Social Media TestDrive initiative. Building on those resources, the first main aim of the project is to identify youth subgroups for whom the pilot interventions are less effective, then develop versions of those interventions targeted to the unique needs and characteristics of those subgroups. This will be done by integrating methods from inclusive privacy research and contextual inquiry, both of which aim to develop deep understanding of subgroups in a larger population. The second main aim is to explore the potential for experiential learning-based interventions across the lifespan, through doing formative work with older adults to identify their particular privacy needs and concerns and developing an intervention suited to those needs. The third main aim is to enhance the platform’s content creation and data collection capabilities, in order to make it more widely available for social media simulation-based interventions. Together, these activities expand the quality, scope, and impact of research around simulation-based educational interventions for privacy and security.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这项工作的目标是创建和评估体验式学习干预措施，以解决大规模的隐私和网络安全风险，特别是在具有特殊隐私和安全需求的人群中。这些体验式学习干预措施将提供教学内容和各种社交媒体环境的可定制、逼真的模拟，以便在其中进行练习；作为社交媒体试驾计划的一部分，已经开发了一个开发这些干预措施的初始平台，以及一小套针对普通中学受众的试点干预措施。在这些资源的基础上，该项目的第一个主要目标是找出试点干预措施效果较差的青年亚群，然后针对这些亚群的独特需求和特征开发这些干预措施的版本。这将通过整合包容性隐私研究和背景调查的方法来实现，这两个方法都旨在加深对更大人口中的亚群的深入了解。第二个主要目标是探索基于经验学习的干预措施在整个生命周期中的潜力。通过与老年人一起进行形成性工作，确定他们特定的隐私需求和关切，并开发适合这些需求的干预措施。第三个主要目标是增强平台的内容创作和数据收集能力，使其更广泛地可用于基于社交媒体模拟的干预措施。这些活动共同扩大了围绕基于模拟的隐私和安全教育干预的研究的质量、范围和影响。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
