The aim of this study is to examine where and with whom adolescents spent time during the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic compared to 2019.
Time diary data from the May 2019 to December 2020 waves of the American Time Use Survey were used to examine trends in where and with whom a sample of individuals aged 15-18 years (N = 437) spent their time.
Only 13% of adolescents spent any time at school on a given day during the pandemic (May-December 2020), compared to 36% in the same period in 2019. Average time with friends decreased by 28%. Over the 7.5-month period, this amounts to an average of 204 fewer hours/34 fewer days in school and 86 fewer hours with friends. Time spent sleeping or sleepless did not change.
Time at school and with friends decreased substantially during the first months of the pandemic.
本研究旨在考察青少年在 COVID-19 大流行的头几个月与 2019 年相比,他们在哪里以及与谁共度时光。
本研究使用了 2019 年 5 月至 2020 年 12 月期间美国时间使用调查的时间日记数据,以调查 15-18 岁个体(n=437)在时间和地点上的趋势。
在大流行期间(2020 年 5 月至 12 月),只有 13%的青少年每天在学校度过,而 2019 年同期为 36%。与朋友相处的平均时间减少了 28%。在 7.5 个月的时间里,这意味着平均每天减少 204 小时/减少 34 天的上学时间和 86 小时与朋友相处的时间。睡眠时间或失眠时间没有变化。
在大流行的头几个月,青少年在学校和与朋友相处的时间大幅减少。
