Background
In February 2004, a paper titled ‘Mobile Phones and Youth: A look at the U.S. student
market’ was presented in the ITU/MIC Workshop on Shaping The Future for The Mobile
Information Society. It was based on a survey, a primary research study, which was
undertaken as a part of the case studies programme managed by Ms. Lara Srivastava of
the ITU. The study was primarily designed to explore the relationships between gender,
age, behavioral trends and mobile phone usage patterns of teenagers and young people, in the age group 12-29 years. Besides depicting the U.S. market, this paper also provides some international perspectives from Japan, China, Australia, United Kingdom and Italy.
This paper, is an attempt to replicate the study in the Philippines context in order
to arrive at the current trends, where mobile telephony seems to have made
an immense impact.
Scope
• To study the attitude of teenagers and youth, age group 15-30 years, towards cellular phones.

the market.
