The Results are in...we're lazy
I just got an email from the Center for Media Research that caught my eye. I personally don't have much time for TV, although I usually catch SportsCenter and or the Trifecta about every night. I always find it interesting to see how much people are watching TV.
According to the American Time Use Survey, average Americans spend 11% of their life in front of a TV screen, 35% sleeping and 33% at work.
Hightlights from the study:
According to the American Time Use Survey, average Americans spend 11% of their life in front of a TV screen, 35% sleeping and 33% at work.
Hightlights from the study:
- Working mothers with young children have only about three hours of leisure time a day.
- Teens age 15 to 19 sleep an average 9.4 hours a day, beating the 75+ segment by more than 20 minutes a day.
- Teenagers spend only seven minutes a day reading paper-based personal interest materials
- The 75+ group has the most hours of leisure time at eight, and read for 72 minutes a day for personal interest
- College educated workers spend 6% of their hours a day watching TV, while consumers with a high-school diploma but no job spend 17%
- Teens are active 40 minutes a day on physical activity, people from age 35 on spend 15 minutes or less, consumers with bachelor's degrees or higher tend to do more.
