Heinz Bonfadelli | Media Use of Ethnic Minority Youth
60
With respect to the use of other media, there are no significant differences
between Swiss pupils and others. Immigrant families do not have as many
computers as their Swiss counterparts; but in the bedrooms of youths of
immigrant background more computers are to be found than in the bedrooms
of the Swiss.
Migration background is a more important predictor than other factors
with regard to reading, how frequently books are read, watching TV and
listening to the radio. With reference to reading books and using audio-visual
media, there is a correlation between migration background and reading
frequency, but education level and gender are more important predictors.

Table 11: Media Use in Hours per Week
For the use of computers and the internet, there is no significant difference
between Swiss adolescents and others, but education is responsible for the
largest part of the variance. Gender is a good predictor for the offline-use of
computers – boys use computers more frequently than girls – but girls use the
internet as often as their male peers, especially to communicate with school
