Internet Brings Families Closer, Finds Pew Study
Businesses are not the only ones to benefit from the greater collaboration brought about by the Internet. A recent study has found that families come closer and collaborate better by the use of Internet and mobile technology.
The study commissioned by the Pew Internet and American Life Project included telephonic interviews with 2252 American adults aged 18 and older between December 13 and January 13. The study, conducted by the Princeton Survey Research Associates International focussed on the answers of 1267 respondents who were married – or in a similar relationship with a partner – and had children.
The results of the study, titled “Networked Families”, showed that the Internet and mobile phones help the members of a family to stay connected with each other and promote shared online experiences. The report also looks at how families use technology to negotiate changing social and family configurations. With dual income families on the rise and spouses spending increasingly more time away from each other in paid work, internet and mobile phones have emerged as important ways to keep in touch. The use of mobile technology as a device to connect and coordinate lives becomes particularly significant if the family includes children since larger families with more members have the most relationships to coordinate.
