Check the Pew Internet site. You can get a number of interesting links by just using "teens" as a search term. Amanda Lenhart did most of the work on two major studies. Specific studies include: http://www.pewinternet.org/PPF/r/162/report_display.asp Teens and Technology: Youth are Leading the Transition to a Fully Wired and Mobile Nation; July 2005 http://www.pewinternet.org/PPF/r/36/report_display.asp Teenage Life Online: The rise of the instant-message generation and the Internet's impact on friendships and family relationships; June 2001 Janna On 5/17/06 3:21 PM, "Kate Raynes-Goldie" <kraynesgoldie@cdnfilmcentre.com> wrote:
Does anyone have any good citations about youth internet use, especially chat, myspace, livejournal and other sns and online communities from the perspective of how the use of that technology is changing the way they socialize... Or how they socialize differently than other generations?
Many thanks! Kate
