THE LATINO DIGITAL DIVIDE: TWO REPORTS

THE LATINO DIGITAL DIVIDE: THE NATIVE BORN VERSUS THE FOREIGN BORN
http://pewhispanic.org/reports/report.php?ReportID=123 Β]
When it comes to the use of technology among Latinos, nativity plays
an important role. Internet use and cell phone use are much higher
among native-born Latinos than among foreign-born Latinos. And among
young Latinos ages 16 to 25, the native born are more likely than the
foreign born to use mobile technology to communicate daily with their
friends. These findings emerge from two new analyses of a nationwide
survey of Latinos ages 16 and older by the Pew Hispanic Center, a
project of the Pew Research Center.

finds that Latinos ages 16 to 25 use mobile technology to
communicate and socialize with their friends more than other
technologies. However, the native born are far more likely than the
foreign born to send texts (65% versus 26%) and to use a cell phone
(55% versus 29%) to communicate daily with their friends. [Pew
