"Pew's survey of 1,458 teens aged 13-17 found that, after a dip in social media use in 2022, usage of TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram is spiking, with YouTube in particular popular across all demographics, including gender, race, ethnicity, and income levels. TikTok is also a constant presence for a fifth of teens: 21% of them said they visit TikTok almost constantly"
"Pew has been tracking social media use among teens since around 2009, publishing regular reports since 2014. This year, Pew added statistics for the use of chatbots, including OpenAI's ChatGPT. The Pew report found that almost two-thirds of US teens, 64%, use chatbots. The results are higher for older teens aged 15-17 (68%) than for younger teens aged 13-14 (57%). Black and Hispanic teens, and teens from higher-income homes are more likely to use chatbots, the report found."
Most young teens in the US visit social media platforms, including TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram, at least once a day. After a dip in 2022, usage of TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram is increasing, with YouTube especially popular across gender, race, ethnicity, and income levels. TikTok is a constant presence for about 21% of teens who say they visit almost constantly. The debate over social media effects has prompted some US states to limit or ban social media for minors or introduce age‑verification rules. Almost two-thirds of US teens (64%) use chatbots, with higher rates among older, Black, Hispanic, and higher‑income teens.
