Sažetak
The pandemic caused by SARS-Cov-2 has affected all aspects of life and has accelerated an unplanned digitalization of society at all levels. Children and young people have encountered many changes and the most prominent is the partial or complete closure of schools and transfer to online classes, which resulted in the increase of time that children spend online. During December 2020, Institute of Public Health of Split-Dalmatia County conducted a follow- up quantitative survey via online questionnaire - first wave was conducted in the 2017. The research involved students from elementary schools (210 students of 7th and 8th grade) and high schools (284 students from all four grades). The purpose of this paper is to present the results which include use of social networks and use of security settings on social networks among children. Almost 87% of elementary school students and 83.45% of high school students state that they used the Internet more and much more during the pandemic than usual. However, an interesting fact is that in both subsamples there is an increase in knowledge about security settings and increase in usage of additional security settings and fewer participants who have a public available profile on social networks compared to the first wave of research.
