Cover Story: Children and young people are often labelled the “digital generation”. However, this age group’s use of digital technology is not uniform, nor are the outcomes of their adaptions to these technologies. This paper presents a protocol for conceptualising, systematically identifying, and synthesising the literature on which conditions contribute to children and young people being negatively or positively impacted by their use of digital technology. Here, children and young people are seen as social actors in four domains of a digital ecosystem focusing on their everyday lives: family, leisure, education, and civic participation. This framework for a scoping review may contribute to a more nuanced understanding of both the risks and benefits facing the younger generation in their digital lives. View this paper
