Congressman Cites Screen Education's Research in Floor Speech
|
Congressman Brad Wenstrup (R, OH-02) made his school safety House floor speech on July 25, highlighting 2 research studies completed by Screen Education on teen smartphone addiction, cyber bullying, and its relation to violence.
Early in the speech he mentions our national survey, which was done in collaboration with EMI Research Solutions and Stark Statistical Consulting. Later, at 3:45, he mentions our research with teens at Camp Livingston, a summer camp located in Bennington, Indiana. Congressman Wenstrup decided to make this speech during our meeting with him in early July. He was moved by the implications our data had for the issue of school violence --- an issue that is of great concern to him. During the meeting we proposed further research on social media and school violence. |
