Abstract
This study reports on ethnic differences in children's patterns of media use. It updates and provides normative data on children's media use. White, Black, Mexican, and Puerto Rican children in grades 2, 4, and 7 in Chicago provided self‐report data on their quantity and frequency of use, access to media, and habits of use. Ethnic group membership predicted differences in quantity, frequency, and access. Differences by ethnicity varied with each category, however. Mexican and Puerto Rican children were not sufficiently different to be considered two distinct groups in subsequent research.
