This report is built around the phone survey work of the Pew Internet & American Life Project done by our polling partner Princeton Survey Research Associates that focused on teenagers and their parents. The main survey for this report involved phone interviews with 754 youth between the ages of 12 and 17 and 754 of their parents. PSRA has done all the project\u2019s surveys since its inception in January 2000, and its executives and staff have been our creative collaborators in every step of the project\u2019s work. This report also contains information and insights from a threaded bulletin board discussion with 21 teenagers called a MindStorm\u00ae that was put together by Greenfield Online, Inc. and email interviews of teenagers in the Maryland suburbs of Washington, D.C. We are especially grateful to these teenagers for responding enthusiastically and candidly to our questions and we are delighted with the results of our partnership with Greenfield.<\/p>\n\n
