Dear all [and apologies for cross posting] I have the pleasure to announce that our Scientific report 'Young People and Emerging Digital Services' has been published. It is found at http://ipts.jrc.ec.europa.eu/publications/pub.cfm?id=2119 <http://ipts.jrc.ec.europa.eu/publications/pub.cfm?id=2119> This study, conducted by the Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS), presents the results of a four-country survey of young Europeans’ attitudes to digital identity (eID) and future eID-enabled services. The study aims to remedy the lack of EU evidence on eID services perceptions. It is innovative in many respects: - It focuses on young people [15-25], rather than children or adults; - It targets multiple EU countries [France, Germany, Spain, UK]; - It works with four large national samples [total number of respondents = 5,265]; - It examines eID service scenarios [4 scenarios]; - It retrieves data relevant to policy making. Based on the opinions of more than five thousand young Europeans, the study demonstrates what aspects of eID and eID services can be measured via a large-scale survey – among them take up, trust, privacy, responsibility, and data control.
