Description

Social media use has become so pervasive in the lives of American teens that having a presence on a social network site is almost synonymous with being online. Fully 95% of all teens ages 12-17 are now online and 80% of those online teens are users of social media sites. The authors focused their attention in this research on social network sites because they wanted to understand the types of experiences teens are having there and how they are addressing negative behavior when they see it or experience it.
