A face-to-face survey of adolescents (12 to 15 year-olds) was conducted in major cities in Korea (N=644) and Australia (N=401). Types of SNS use and both online bonding and bridging social capital were measured There was no significant difference in time spent on SNS between the two countries’ adolescents; however, significant differences in the way adolescents use SNS were found.
