Living with the biological father (which was highly correlated with age) had a large and highly significant negative relationship both with the use of technology for social reasons, and with being a type 1 user (younger people who live with their biological fathers were significantly less likely to use technology at all, but the result was much stronger for social use). 6 This may represent a constraint rather than a choice for younger people, who may have had parents who act as agents on their behalf.
