The aim of the current study was to investigate faculties’ perceived online risks pertaining to children with regard to gender, risk experience and having trained on safe İnternet use variables. Participants of the study were 116 faculties working at primary school education departments of 19 Turkish state universities. Data were collected through Perceived Online Risks Scale for Children. The scale proved reliable within faculty context. Results suggest that faculties represent high perceived risks and their perceptions differ in terms of risk themes. However, faculties’ risk perceptions did not differ in terms of gender, education and risk experience variables. Findings were discussed along perceived risk literature. Suggestions for further research were presented.
