Teens and Social Media: Key Findings from Pew Research Center Surveys

The following is excerpted from an online article posted by Pew Research Center.

In 2022, Pew Research Center fielded an in-depth survey asking American teens – and their parents – about their experiences with and views toward social media. Among the key findings:

• Majorities of teens report ever using YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and Snapchat.

• Majorities of teens use YouTube and TikTok every day, and some report using these sites almost constantly.

• Teens are more likely to report positive than negative experiences in their social media use.

• Some teens – especially older girls – avoid posting certain things on social media because of fear of embarrassment or other reasons.

• Only around one-in-five teens think their parents are highly worried about their use of social media.
