STUDY: KIDS ARE MULTI-MEDIA-TASKING
Kids are spending more time with new media, including computers and video
games, without cutting back on TV watching, reading or listening to music.
That's because they are becoming multi-media-taskers, according to a study
from the Kaiser Family Foundation released Wednesday. The study found that
since 1999, children and teens' exposure to media has gone up by more than
an hour, from 7:29 per day to 8:33, most of that increase coming from video
games or recreational computer time. But since much of that has become
multi-layered usage--surfing the Web while watching TV, for example--the
total number of hours of media usage has stayed virtually the same (6:19 in
1999 vs. 6:21 in the newest study).
