Online Social Networking in Adolescence: Patterns of Use in Six European Countries and Links With Psychosocial Functioning
Original language description
Purpose: Online communication tools, such as social networking sites (SNS), have been comprehensively embraced by adolescents and have become a dominant daily social practice. Recognizing SNS as a key context of adolescent development, this study aimed to investigate associations between heavier SNS use, and adolescent competencies and internalizing problems. Methods: Data was collected in six European countries: Greece, Spain, Poland, the Netherlands, Romania, and Iceland. Participants were 10,930 adolescents aged 14-17 years (F/M: 5,719/5,211; mean age 15.8 +/- .7 years); 62.3% were aged 14-15.9 years and 37.7% were aged 16-17.9 years. Participants reported on their use of online communication tools, and their general competencies and internalizing problems (Youth Self Report). Results: SNS are both ubiquitous-used by 70% of adolescents-and engaging, given that 40% of users spend 2 or more hours daily on SNS (labeled heavier SNS use).
