Conclusion

 Adolescents no longer venture out of their homes to "hang out" with their friends. Rather, the luxuries of a computer and social networking sites occupy the passing day hours as social connections are maintained indoors. Facebook is easily becoming an "addiction," taking away from studying time and a normal sleep schedule.

 As college students ourselves, we also use Facebook frequently as it has become a way

to communicate to friends all of the nation and the world asking for help on a homework assignment.

 With such personal experience as well as the drastic change in society that has occurred due to Facebook, a study was conducted to see if Facebook affects one significant age group more so than another.

Study done via surveys on Facebook with a sample of 30 School students and a sample of 30 college students. The survey asked questions about their age, sex, grade, grade point average, hours of sleep, and number of hours on Facebook on the weekdays and the weekends.

 The data was then collected, analyzed, and analyzed. Chi-Square Test for Independence was performed leading to a proper conclusion in regarding the question:

Do School students spend more time on Facebook than college students? Is the time spent on Facebook independent of the two above mentioned categories?

Amount of time college students spend on Facebook during the weekday is slightly skewed to the left.

Amount of time school students spend on Facebook during the weekday is more even and symmetrical.

When a two bar graph is used to directly compare the distributions, the College students seem to use Facebook for longer hours as compared to school students.

The graphs for both the school and college students are roughly symmetrical.

Both of the graphs are roughly even as well. The difference is only by one or two students at most.

The two bar graph does show that school students tend to use Facebook slightly more than college students

 The hypothesis is as follow: H0: 1 - 2 = 0 Ha: 1 - 2 0 1 = population mean of time spent by school students on Facebook 2 = population mean of time spent by college students on Facebook 2 2 S1 = 1.22; S2 = 1.13 1 =1.97; 2 = 2.3; = 0.05; critical value of z= 1.96 Observed value of z= -1.18

 Although 10 questions were asked in the survey, needed to use the answers to three of the questions: whether the selected individuals of the sample were in school or college; how much time they respectively spent on Facebook during the weekday; and how much time the individuals respectively spent on Facebook during the weekend.

The rest of the questions we just there either for consistency and to get more information that possibly could have been used.

It was also observed that the usage of Facebook does not depend on whether the student is from school or college.

It may seem, from a brief glance at the graphs, that college students seem to spend slightly more time on Facebook than school students during the weekdays.

However, for the two chisquared tests, we failed to reject the null hypothesis.

On the other hand, school students seem to spend slightly more time on Facebook than College students during the weekends.
