The time Americans devote to technology

Coverage Type: 

A Q&A with Frank Newport, the editor-in-chief at the polling firm Gallup. According to Gallup, young Americans are worried they spend too much time in front of screens. “Almost six in ten 18-29 year olds told us that they feel guilty; they spent too much time using their cell phone or their smart phone. And they spend too much time using the Internet. Almost half said they spend too much time on social media sites such as Facebook.”
