Youth and Screen Culture: National survey of 6-17 year olds

Abstract

Summary :This article presents the results, for France, of a European survey on children's and teenagers' ways of communicating. The authors analyse the relationship between social inequalities and the use of screens, with a particular focus on disparities, in the media sphere, in terms of age and gender. They explore the new dynamics of sociability induced by the new media, and highlight the versatility of media use and the synergies that are woven between digital screens and printed matter.
