The Social Science and Social Media Collaborative – Parenting

Today, three-quarters of parents in the U.S. use some form of social media, and the vast majority use social media to receive support and information on parenting. Researchers are examining the content and accuracy of this parenting information, and the degree to which it may vary according to parent characteristics.

The parenting study identifies:
Most commonly ‘tweeted’ parenting topics
Commonly ‘tweeted’ parenting information with scientific inaccuracies
Profiles of parent social media users by topic and opinion
The subpopulation of parents who use Twitter
