The document analyzes media consumption across different age groups from 0-10 years old to 71+ years old. It divides age groups into more specific ranges and examines differences in media use between males and females in each group. Younger age groups from 0-21 years old use a wider variety of media that increases as technology advances, while older groups from 41+ years old use less media and prefer simpler options like television and radio.
2. Age Groups
0-10
11-15

The reason that we chose to use these age
groups are because there are changes in
the media consumption between each
group. It is easier to analyse the data as the
changes are more significant than using age
groups with 10 year or 5 year gaps, its easier
with a range.
