The study results show that among children 13-17 years old, those with an annual family income of less than $35,000 per year spend 50 percent more time each week playing videogames than teenagers in families whose income is over $74,000 per year.
Differences in the genders' playing habits were also uncovered. Among 13-17 year olds, 67% of girls play videogames each month, compared to 95% of the boys.
Other survey results:
-Overall, teens still spend more time spend watching TV, going online or listening to the radio than playing videogames.
-A third of the teenagers surveyed cited price as the most important factor when deciding which console to buy. Only 8 percent said the ability to play games online was an important factor.
