A recent study shows that many teenagers in Việt Nam spare around 4 hours for entertainment. A majority of teenagers watch TV or use the Internet. Thousands of teenagers play computer games or chat with their friends on social networks. They don’t spend much time on physical activities. Only a minority of the surveyed teenagers spend time playing sports. There is little information about how teenagers spend their leisure time with their family members. Do you know any other research about this topic?

Tạm dịch:
Một nghiên cứu gần đây cho thấy nhiều thanh thiếu niên ở Việt Nam dành khoảng 4 giờ để giải trí. Phần lớn thanh thiếu niên xem TV hoặc sử dụng Internet. Hàng nghìn thanh thiếu niên chơi game trên máy tính hoặc tán gẫu với bạn bè trên mạng xã hội. Họ không dành nhiều thời gian cho các hoạt động thể chất. Chỉ một số ít thanh thiếu niên được khảo sát dành thời gian chơi thể thao. Có rất ít thông tin về cách thanh thiếu niên dành thời gian giải trí với các thành viên trong gia đình. Bạn có biết bất kỳ nghiên cứu nào khác về chủ đề này không?
