The new census released by Common Sense Media covers a period from 2015 and 2019 and shows how young people’s online experiences have changed over time. The survey was carried out in the U.S. with more than 1.600 8- to 18-year-olds.
Some of the findings include the fact that more than half of 11-year-olds have their own smartphone (and 69% of 12-year-olds); the percentage of young people watching online videos has doubled since 2015; and, the majority of teenagers spend very little time creating digital media content.
