Welcome to the
Modern Life Study!
We have had the pleasure of working with
some of you before, including Australia's Biggest Smartphone Survey with the ABC! This is now our third Australia-wide study!

inviting you to take part in our new national survey
We are excited to partner with NORC at the University of Chicago, bringing together local expertise and global collaboration. Our team of researchers is based at Australia's leading institutions, including Edith Cowan University,
The University of Western Australia, and
The Kids Research Institute Australia.
We are now tapping the voices of Australian parents in 2025! We will follow up again in 2026, with generous remuneration for a very brief survey (10 minutes).
Are you a parent or caregiver of
a child between 9-15 years?
We want to hear from you!
Got a text message to participate in our research?
We are partnering with best practice methodologists to ensure a true picture of Australian families emerges.
Originally launched in October 2017, we remain interested in better understanding how online media might shape the way you parent, provide new opportunities, and/or pose unique challenges in an increasingly digital world.
Stay tuned and thank you for your participation!
